Labour bribed the youth with free university tuition. Tories offered free season tickets at the '82, that was their downfall.

The problem with this election is that no-one, including Labour, thought there would be anything but a landslide win for the Conservatives.
Labour therefore offered people the world without having any idea how they would pay for it. The Conservatives were too honest for their own good, and paid for it at the ballot box.
Labour activated the young vote by offering, amongst other things, free tuition. They also bribed every other section of society with promises of jam today and airily claimed they would pay for it by increasing corporation tax and tax on "The Wealthy". what utter bollox! Companies will happily pay reasonable Corp. tax, but put it too high, and they will do an Amazon, Starbucks etc etc and move offshore. Other companies would be forced to lay people off and downsize. The result would be less tax money for the government, not more.
Similarly with the rich. Top earners now pay 45% tax, with National Insurance that means they lose nearly 60% of their income to the government. I don't think that's fair, and it doesn't affect me. What rate would Labour tax these people are? 80%, 90%?. It wouldn't be worth going to work, and they would only find a way around it. The very wealthy, like the Duke, would simply relocate offshore. No, to raise sufficient money to pay for all Labour would have to hit the ordinary working person. I don't know about you, but I don't fancy going back to paying 30% or more income tax, or seeing the country go bankrupt through reckless borrowing.
I can't believe that people have such short memories. The last Labour Government, led by the war criminal Blair virtually bankrupted the country, and they were supposed to be moderate in the way they conducted themselves.
What do people think a communist idiot like Corbyn would do if given the reigns of power?
F#ck me.

The list is virtually endless with their irresponsible spending that someone has to pay for - unfortunately (or rather fortunately) the young and first time voters have not yet experienced a Socialist Government. And not forgetting The Gulf War which cost billions of pounds and thousands of lives - another Socialist lie. Fortunately they still didn't manage to win the election despite offering another lie - the proverbial "Money Tree" to everyone that cared to listen - fortunately the majority didn't.

Merely a statement of facts. If I am mistaken I would be happy to be enlightened. I am an ordinary working person. I am happy to pay 20% of my income to government to help run the country. Making me pay 30% or even more would make it difficult to survive and support my family. I cannot claim any sort of benefit, I am part of the main body of people who has to pay and get nothing back. I am happy to do that provided I am left with enough. Take too much more away and I would wonder if it was worth the bother. Anything wrong with that?

True Rovers fan, lovely to see in a world of political opportunists. She'll be sad today but I look forward to seeing her at the season opener in August. Chin up. True rovers fan by hairy ar5e. She wears shirts that make her get media coverage. If you look st the website theyworkforyou then you'll see exactly who she is. Good riddance The media are the reason that Conservatives win most elections.

The point the op was making i believe is that charlotte leslie was a pro-active MP and myself and some others have vouched for that. Anything else including long winded paragraphs or one liners supporting one party or the other is totally pointless imo. The thread is apolitical,its just about the MP having a high profile locally.
