What's going to happen is England will enact more and more socialist policies that will cripple the economy and standard of life, then the people will complain that they need a better life and England will double down on more socialist policies that originally tanked the economy. It's a common formula practiced virtually in all majority Democrat American cities that are holes today, like Detroit, Baltimore, Camden, etc... Chicago is next, the producers are moving out and the takers are moving in. |

Personally, I never wanted May as Prime Minister, the media forced her in because she voted Remain and they thought they could get Brexit reversed. However, I'm not sure how one can get enthused by the thought of bungling Jeremy Corbyn as PM, racist Diane Abbott as Home Secretary and commie John McDonnell as Chancellor. Add in Emily Thornberry and it's a motley crue of absolute fukknuckles. I wouldn't trust them to look after a cat. It's all right people wanting free stuff, but don't they realise the country is deep in debt? We can't afford more borrowing. You raise corporation tax, companies find better places to do business (such as the tax haven next door, Ireland), which would be disastrous at present economic climate with what's on the horizon. The other thing is Brexit, as a nation we needed a strong hand negotiating with the EU in order to secure our long-term future. Now they're going to eff us in the ass knowing May will struggle to get things passed in a pro-Remain HoC & HoL. Moreover, if you care about keeping the United Kingdom together then Corbyn's not your guy. He'd give Scotland a second referendum in a deal and in NI an inflammatory border poll. It's not just about financial considerations, there are deep ideological considerations too. It wasn't a big Conservative majority to begin with, and if a DUP deal come off we're basically back where we started except with the PM damaged and the UK on the backfoot Brexit negotiations.

Since 2005 the amount of seats labour and the lib dems have lost is frightening. Labour won 7 seats at the last election ffs in region where vast swathes of Scotland traditionally voted labour. I'm all for it. If there was a referendum for us in England to vote on their independence I'd vote for their independence. In a heartbeat! |

It is no surprise that as a person gets older and wiser and accumulates a little bit of money and property then they all start voting Republican/Conservative. |

If you work in public sector than you could live for a million years and never vote conservative. I am assuming it is the same over there. I know you don't have a national health health service free at the point of use. But who do your police and school teachers vote for? Over here what this comedian says is essentially how the much of the working class feel about Tories. There is a feeling that it makes you somewhat of a cunt by definition. |

Hell, I could even make a strong case for it myself if I had to, however I see the long term problems being stored up by the increasing concentration of wealth in a few hands as outweighing the benefits. Economic growth is slowing, inequality is growing and we live in a world of finite resources. Use your imagination, man. Project these trends. What do you see? Quite aside from which I ain't one of the 10% or economically even the top 50%, I get to see the effects of Conservative capitalism every day, and yeah, I am an idealist. The policies you're advocating did work up to a point. The whole of society did benefit, even if the rich benefited most. But that time is past. |
