Whether people like it or not, being warm, caring and fluffy doesn't run a country or its economy. The conservatives are a much safer set of hands when it comes to that, and when thats done correctly, everyones lives improve. A corbyn led government would be an unmitigated disaster,

Unfortunately the country is run by a workforce and unless they are warm and safe productivity suffers and so will the economy...

We are not drones, ok we have to work and work hard but is it too much to ask to have a half decent standard of life while working? Is a neoliberal hand to mouth existence unprotected from exorbitant utilities, rent, travel and fuel costs about the best we could wish for ourselves?

Maybe for you and yours but not me and mine!

What's fluffy about regulations? renationalisation? other countries run our networks so they're very profitable, the fluffy tory don't bring just buy sales that claimed then then cream profits via companies they have interests in who mop up shares after these massacres as they hack away at our infrastructure... and you think they make us safer?.... wake up ffs!

Are we really being warm and fluffy when all we want is for the corruption to stop? The Cons and New Labour were two sides of the same coin. The corruption was rife with Blair and Brown.

Your right, Corbyn would be an unmitigated disaster for the Tory party and their New Labour followers.

I'm not being flippant here but... when? They've been in for 8 years now and lives are not improving. National debt has continued to soar - the crash caused it to balloon from 0.5 trillion under labour to 1 trillion, but since the Tories have been in it has increased another 50% to 1.5 trillion, projected to hit 2 trillion by 2020 (all under Tory rule). Meanwhile, The NHS is in a worse state than ever, pensions are in a worse state than ever, local councils are struggling more than ever so local services are being halted faster than ever, and town and village centers are getting dirtier and more run down by the month.

So, when? When do the Tories safe hands improve the economy? When do "everyone's lives start to improve"? If this was 2011 you could roll out the old "Labour left a mess" rhetoric and say "give them time"... but this far down the line? You can't claim that Tory rule will inevitably improve people's lives when there is still zero evidence of that happening, and abundant evidence of people's lives being made utterly miserable by Tory decisions.
