      I was overjoyed to take my wife’s hand in marriage. Unfortunately, the rest of her was attached to it.

        Hello Mr Cameron

        It could have been worse – you could have come up with a slogan such as A Future Fair For All although try the link for the REAL face of the slogan.

        You could also have married Harriet Harman but then at least you’d have a Labour safe seat ;)

          All women short lists are for the little People

          • Cameron to reverse opposition to all-women shortlists says:

            David Cameron is to reverse his party’s longstanding opposition to all-women shortlists in a bid to make sure the number of women elected to parliament at the next election does not plateau.

            In evidence to the Speaker’s conference – set up to explore methods for increasing representation in the Houses of Parliament – this morning, the Tory leader said he was concerned to keep the number of women being selected by the Conservatives up and so might give constituency parties only female candidates to chose from, something his party has resisted and campaigned against for the last four years of Cameron’s leadership.

            Gordon Brown and Nick Clegg also appeared before the committee today.

            Cameron said there were “many very, very good women” on the Tories’ priority list of candidates who had not yet been selected and he wanted to give them a chance at the next election, saying the under-representation of women and ethnic minorities was a particular problem for the Conservative party.

      Go on Labour,get in there

      Labour gained a late boost in the latest council by-elections with a triple triumph at Mansfield, Nottinghamshire.

      After a daytime count, it gained two seats from the district council’s ruling Independent Forum and a third in a county contest.

      In the Nottinghamshire poll, former councillor Chris Winterton took the party from third place last year in Mansfield South division to first.

      Labour’s district winners were Brian Lohan at Portland ward and Julia Yemm at Sherwood.

            Union leaders have warned of industrial action after reports that the BBC is planning to close two national radio stations and scale back its website.
            The broadcasting union Bectu and the National Union of Journalists (NUJ) accused the BBC of bowing to pressure from politicians and commercial rivals.
            According to the reports, BBC Asian Network and 6 Music will be axed as part of the cost-cutting proposals.

            Glad to see the Asian network go… (imagine if they had an Afro-Caribbean Network or an Anglo-Saxon Network — how very racist).

          Engineer says:

          In these days of 24-hour rolling news, I wonder if it’s a matter of available time? To be fair to the BBC (and I don’t say that very often!) they just have to check the story’s veracity and bang it out as fast as they can. No time to think.

          The much-criticised Dead Tree press do have a bit more time to do considered comment pieces, which is why the likes of Jeff Randall, Con Coughlin and Simon Jenkins are better as columnists than as bloggers.

          Maybe there’s room for both.

          • Moley says:

            This is how to do it.

            If the Stats come direct from ONS to BBC, the BBC asks for comments from Party spokesmen, with a deadline, and broadcasts what it gets.

            If the Stats come from Labour to BBC they HAVE to be regarded as biased and the other parties HAVE to be given an opportunity to comment, and that comment HAS to be given the same prominence as the information from Labour.

            It would be very simple to draw up guidelines for presenters and producers regarding political impartiality, and it very obviously has not been done.

          • Engineer says:

            A government press release can use ONS statistics selectively (the knife-crime case was the worst example that springs to mind, but I’ll bet there are many others less blatant). By the time anybody (journalist or opposition parties) has had a chance to check, the news agenda has moved on. I think the Labour spin machine uses this technique extensively; it’s unfortunate that the BBC in particular seem to be willing collaborators, less inclined to check the data fed to them than some other news feeds, but the time pressure is severe. No journalist likes to be scooped. Labour use that to their advantage.

            The only answer is rigourous journalistic professionalism – check everything.

          • Steve Expat says:

            The saddest thing about today’s episode surely has to be the politicisation of the ONS, they released the data last month with a fanfare press conference, and today released the report with a headline suggesting that things got better in Q4, when the reality is that the estimate actually shrank from the previous version.

            Note to Dave, make sure that those organisations that are supposed to be apolitical are just that – the public have no confidence in ‘official’ statistics any more. Just like the government, we automatically believe they are lying.

    The anti hazel blear community group that sprang up in the wake of her expenses scandal has now chosen, with significant union support, an independent candidate to stand against her in the next election.

    This sort of thing is happening around the country. It’s a phenomenon that the polling companies have never come across before and so haven’t got the tools to predict what effect it might have on an overall result.

    The other factor that the polling companies cannot predict, because it has never been an issue in an election before, is the now well entrenched image of the potty-mouthed guttergordon and how that will impact on votes for labour.

    This election isn’t going to be decided on a general overall percentage swing.

      Interesting that this labour government has diverted £3.6million from the International Overseas Aid Budget into the TUC coffers.

      Hillary Benn, son of wedgie, no doubt had something to do with that!

      And given recent rumors, presumably the TUC then promptly transferred it into the Labour Party’s own bank account ready for the forthcoming election!!!!

        Socialism—

        Tax everybody the same whether they can afford it or not; except for those on benefits who get “Taxed” at a higher rate than anybody because taxation is combined with benefit withdrawal.

        Why should the rich toffs be the only people to complain about unfair taxation?

      Carry On Don't Lose Your Head (1967) says:

      What do you expect from a naive leftist fool who is clearly out of his depth and oblivious to the serious office he holds? Blimey, if this was Soviet Russia of Baathist Iraq, Miliband would have the judges taken outside and shot at his pleasure. Probably one of the schoolboy fantasies he yearns to make real.

      Well I do believe you’re right. This is probably the most unusual election ever.

      You have the most hated, potty-mouthed pm ever.

      You have nearly 400 mp’s who are despised in their constituencies for their extreme expenses excesses. In the case of phil hope (corby-enorthants/ lab) the seat will probably swing to the tories. In the case of the wintertons ( extreme tory troughers and more arrogant than gordon – will their seats go to labour?)

      The polling companies do not have the tools to judge a likely outcome for this unusual election. We are simply in a very interesting time , and I for one can’t wait for the election to see what really happens!!

            This is going to be an Election of severe shocks.

            I live in a staunchly Conservative area, and while my MP is middle of the road ok, I object having to pay for among other things, his mortgage, his council tax, his food, his heating bills, his phone bills, his television licence, his train and travel fares over and above the cost of an annual season ticket, repairs to his house, his insurance premiums, his furniture and electrical appliances and his employment of his wife.

            Nice chap and all that, but he will not be getting my vote.

          • Anonymous says:

            1992 was an election that would have been better for the Tories to lose. Labour would have then inherited the recession and the Tories would have been reelected in 1997, with some proper right wing policies and the Europhiles kicked into the long grass. Just think how much better this country would have been if we hadn’t had the last 13 years of labour – sensible immigration policy, lower fiscal deficit, lower debt, no dumb arsed human rights legislation, equality and diversity bollocks – not today thanks, no Cameron!!!!!

            If you want a reenactment of 1992 for the Tories then expect labour to come back in 5 years to finish the job of destroying this country. Dream scenario – Labour win a hung parliament, go bust within 12 months, Cameron removed and a proper right wing Tory arrives on his white charger to save us once again. It ain’t going happen though… we’re fucked all ways unfortunately.

    Are the Tories about to grow a pair?

    George Osborne in the Times tomorrow..

    Since the new year, we are the party that has been setting out the new policy ideas that will change Britain. Perhaps that has made it too easy for the Labour Party simply to attack us while escaping scrutiny itself. That will now change. We will continue to set out our own positive ideas, but we will also ask searching questions about Mr Brown’s record and whether he has anything new to offer. That is the spotlight Labour is desperate to avoid. It won’t be able to now.

      Some time before Christmas, we speculated that the Tories were playing a cagey game, keeping fairly quiet to negate, as far as possible, the negative spin from the Liebore bunker – a policy of giving them nothing to pick apart and throw back.

      grobdj says:

      So is the policy working or isn’t it?

      Since the GDP revision places the pit of the recession further back into last year, some may argue Q1 2010 will see a stronger bounce into growth

      VAT returns are the earliest statistic for Government to know how businesses are faring, since they have to be filed within one month of the quarter end.

      But as I have said before, all small businesses using the cash accounting scheme declare turnover according to cash collected. If their debtor book shrinks (collect more cash than you invoice), the VAT turnover declared is higher than real production.

      Since lending to small businesses is falling, they have been forced to bring down debtors and avoid unnecessary purchases, both of which increase the VAT to pay under the VAT cash accounting scheme. (More VAT due, less VAT to reclaim)

      Eventually GDP will be revised according to filed company accounts. But in the meantime, falling turnover and reduced lending to small businesses will have a positive effect on GDP.

      If I am right, the positive effect on GDP is 15% of the reduction in lending to small businesses using VAT cash accounting.

    Some of these are very funny.
    Go to the website if you want to see more of them.

    1.Cool on the outside:
    To combat global warming and climate change all buildings should be fitted with air conditioning units on the outside.

    2.Wheelie Bins:
    The idea of weight monitoring chips in wheelie bins should be scrapped, instead the wheels should be removed, this would mean that if people generated too much waist they could not put their non-wheelie bin out for collection. It would also help prevent them being chucked into canals.

    3.Needles
    Due to the increasing number of children afraid of needles, I propose the destruction of the tedious, scary and often painful process of school vaccinations.
    Instead, I propose that highly trained nurses should be given free reign on the playground with specially modified tranquillizer rifles which apply vaccinations as well as a tranquillizer. This would have two main benefits: It would be less scary for the children as they will not know what hit them, also it will be more fun for the nurses

    4.Hypocrites

    It is proposed that all politicians be made to swear a “hippocratic oath”, preventing them by law from being Hypocrites. All politicians should be made to stand by their policies, or or at least admit that they were wrong.

      Not as mad as first seems. Make it illegal for Civil Service to Lie.

      If you lie, then you are dismissed the service and lose your pension.

      If there is no limit on the period of accountability then the next Government will use this law to get rid of all those it does not want in post or strip them of their pensions.

      With a restriction on time needed to get a pension this would mean the civil service would maintain the standards required by the British public, not the Government. After all, we make up ‘The Jury’.

      We can change the rules so that ‘politicals’ can be held accountable after their departure from office.

      By putting this to a referendum, we can then enforce this rule even if a later Government votes to change it. Because without a referendum to support it the vote will not be held to be valid in later legal proceedings.

      After all, we make up ‘The Jury’.

        “Would the Prime Minister agree with me that 10 years of Labour investment has given my constituents the best hospitals in the world”

        or

        “Would the Prime minister agree with me that thanks to Labour investment the people of my constituency really love Labour now”

        Just arse kissing shit from these pig ugly dykes.

        I’m also pissed off with fucking dykes moaning about how they don’t get paid the same as men. Well try getting off you fucking fat arses and do some of the shit dangerous jobs that men do. Oh and they never seem to consider that men often get paid to do night shifts (most women don’t work those) weekends, call outs, bank holidays and other crap.

        Since all these fucking dykes have turned up at Westminster they all fuck off at 5PM to look after their stinking fat kids.

        Dear Argentina, if you want to invade the Falklands please do so after 5PM any night as no fucking will be around then to demand we send a task force.

    An Age of Austerity.. TAX CUTS! says:

    General election: Tories plan tax-cut budget

    George Osborne will unveil an emergency “enterprise” budget within 50 days of a Conservative election victory which will sharply cut taxes for business, it can be disclosed.

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/conservative/7326720/General-election-Tories-plan-tax-cut-budget.html

    George Osborne: cut debt now or face economic disaster

    Britain risks losing its economic “sovereignty” unless cuts are made this year to reduce the record budget deficit, George Osborne warned last night.

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/election-2010/7309703/George-Osborne-cut-debt-now-or-face-economic-disaster.html

    Do not adjust your sets.
    George can believe twelve impossible and opposing things before breakfast.

    If business taxes get cut guess who’s taxes will have to go up to pay for them?
    Even George doesn’t pretend that cuts alone can slash the deficit and is on record as saying he won’t rule out tax rises.
    We’ll those tax rises aren’t going to be on business so they are going to hit the middle classes. I doubt they will be amused.

    Martin Day says:

    Ashcroft won’t go away !!!!

    The Tories also face fresh pressure over whether their billionaire donor and ­deputy chairman, Lord Ashcroft, breached funding rules. The Liberal Democrats have written to the chairwoman of the Electoral Commission, Jenny Watson, to request that the commission concludes an inquiry into some of his donations before an election is called. The inquiry, which began 18 months ago, is into donations from a company owned by Ashcroft, Bearwood Corporate Services. The key question is whether Bearwood was operating as a fully functioning business at the time the donations were made.

    The Lib Dem home affairs spokesman, Chris Huhne, warns in his letter to Watson that the legality of the general election result could be called into question if £5m in donations to the Tory party via Bearwood – including £80,000 in sponsorship revealed this week – are ruled illegal.

    Ashcroft will come under pressure on two fronts this week to reveal details of his tax status. Some 78 Labour and Lib Dem MPs are backing an amendment by Labour’s Gordon Prentice to the constitutional reform and governance bill, which reaches report stage next week. It would force any peer, whose elevation to the Lords was conditional, to reveal whether they have met the terms of the agreement. Ashcroft undertook to become UK resident – including paying tax – when he received his peerage in 2000, but refuses to say whether he has fulfilled that promise.

    Prentice said: “Ashcroft has repeatedly refused to clarify his tax status. He has stonewalled for a decade while bankrolling the Conservatives, giving two fingers to the electorate. His millions are allowing the Conservatives to buy seats at the next election.”

    Spokesmen for both the Electoral Commission and Ashcroft refused to comment on the ongoing investigation.

          Looks like the Tories have just resorted to Plan B and flip flopped their entire campaign. For well over 12 months they have said that there will need to be massive cuts, it then went to large cuts, now they are planning a massive tax and spend give away, and not one mention of how they are going to pay for it all.

          Sorry Tory chaps, but to coin your phrase…..were do we get the money from to pay for all these tax cuts. Is that your way of reducing the debt, by reducing the tax intake.

          That is one way to confuse the electorate, firstly tell them we need to massively cut back on spending, then tell them, that’s now wrong, lets go for tax cuts and more spending instead. The public won’t know what their real policy is, do they know what their real policy is?

          Plan B will go the same way as Plan A.

            The man who could be America’s first black president won ringing praise yesterday from the man who could be Britain’s 19th old Etonian prime minister.
            David Cameron said he hugely admired Barack Obama, the front-running contender for the Democrat nomination, and vowed to bring some of the same spirit to the British political debate.

            “I’m enjoying watching Barack Obama. I think he’s a brilliant speaker, I think his optimism and sense of hope for the future is inspiring a lot of people. It’s great to see. Too often [politics] gets down to hope and fear and I think it’s wonderful when hope wins. I’m enjoying watching him, I must say. I think he’s compelling,” Cameron told Radio 5 Live’s Breakfast programme.

            “What people like is the sense that Obama generates, that we don’t have to be like this, we can do better… I think we need that same sense of possibility here.”

          • Where is England's Glenn Beck? says:

            G20 summit: David Cameron enjoys chat with Barack Obama

            David Cameron, the Conservative leader, took a motorbike through the traffic chaos caused by the G20 protests to get to his meeting with US President Barack Obama.

            Their 32 minute talks at the American Ambassador’s residence, Winfield House, in London’s Regent’s Park were described by Tories as “very successful”.

            Eager to be punctual for their discussion, Mr Cameron was seen hurrying from the chamber of the House of Commons as soon as the regular Wednesday session of Prime Minister’s Question Time concluded.

            ‘Best of British’ served for dinner guests

            aides had arranged for a hired motorbike to whisk him through the protesting crowds which snarled up the traffic in central London.

            It was the second time that the two men had been introduced, but the first since Mr Obama’s election as president.

            Their wives, Michelle Obama and Samantha Cameron, also met up, exchanging gifts of bracelets by Lara Bohinc and David Yurman.

            Both couples gave each other presents of books for their children. The Obama girls, Malia, 10, and Sasha, seven, received the children’s classic, the Railway Children, while Nancy and Arthur Cameron, aged five and three, were given the American favourite, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, by L Frank Baum, and a copy of Hans Christian Andersen’s fairytales.

            During their meeting, Mr Cameron and Mr Obama discussed the issues on the agenda at the G20 summit, as well as Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran and green technology.

            They were joined by George Osborne, the shadow chancellor, William Hague, the shadow foreign secretary, Baroness Neville-Jones, shadow security minister, Ed Llewllyn, Mr Cameron’s chief of staff, and Andy Coulson, his director of communications.

            For his part, Mr Obama was accompanied by Hillary Clinton, his Secretary of State, Timothy Geithner, the Treasury Secretary, and General Jim Jones, the President’s National Security Advisor.

            Afterwards, Mr Cameron said: “We had an excellent meeting and we discussed a range of economic matters and a range of foreign policy matters.

            “Obviously it was a private meeting but a really productive meeting and it was good to see him and his team.

            “He is a very easy person to talk with, to exchange views with. He’s an incredibly impressive politician and leader but he’s also an extremely personable human being and someone it’s easy to get on with and to strike up a relationship with.

    Labour’s hypocrisy has come to light only days after the scale of Labour’s deliberate plan to create a multicultural Britain through mass immigration was revealed.

    A draft Cabinet Office report, uncovered by a Freedom of Information request, showed how, in 2000, Labour ministers deliberately plotted to open the floodgates to new migrants to achieve the party’s ‘social objectives’. Traditionally, new immigrants vote for Left-wing parties.

    The document also revealed how those who dared to question this policy would be branded ‘racists’.

    Today, however, on the cusp of a General Election, many Labour MPs have realised that their secret plan has backfired spectacularly. As a result of mass immigration, many of their core white working-class voters complain that they feel like second-class citizens in their own communities, and believe that immigrants are given unfair precedence for jobs and public services.

    As a result, Labour MPs in marginal seats or with a … threat are desperately scrambling to play the race card in a shameless attempt to be seen as acting tough on immigration after all.

    One of the MPs at the heart of the new get-tough policy on immigration in constituency backyards is Mr scrotum, who is the Prime Minister’s closest political friend.

    Mr scrotum has been at the centre of Cabinet decision-making over the past decade and will have been only too well aware of Labour’s encouragement of a multicultural Britain.

    Mr scrotum, a front-runner to succeed Mr Brown as Labour leader, has held two public meetings and produced direct mail and questionnaires on the immigration issue in his newly-created Morley and Outwood constituency.

    Significantly, the Schools Secretary’s Yorkshire constituency is a fertile breeding ground for the …, which already has one … councillor and hundreds of members registered locally.

    desperate or what? says:

    In his recent constituency newsletter, Mr spermtank wrote: ‘I want to have a conversation with you about immigration. What we really need is proper discussion about the difficulties and benefits that immigration can bring to our country.’

    He admitted that there were ‘concerns about jobs in our area’, and asked: ‘Do you support updating our immigration laws so that: migrants who want to settle here must speak English? A probationary period should be passed before they are able to claim state benefits?’

    It is a similar story in Barking – the East London constituency where … leader Nick is fighting the Culture Minister Margaret Hodge.

    With one of the highest rates of immigration in Britain, Barking has seen a massive social upheaval as a result of Labour’s policy, with many local families struggling to come to terms with the sheer number of new arrivals from abroad.

    Yet in a two-page letter to constituents, Mrs Hodge paints herself as being tough on immigration, saying that it can be ‘very unsettling’ for ‘predominantly white’ and ‘traditional East End families’.

    She adds: ‘I respect your concerns about the pace of change. It is wrong for others to dismiss these out of hand and rest assured that you do have my support on this.’

    Earlier this month, Mrs Hodge even suggested that migrants should be forced to ‘earn’ the right to benefits and council housing over several years. She warned that British values of tolerance were under threat because of an increasing sense of ‘unfairness’ over immigration.

    Or how about What son?, the West Bromwich East MP and another close ally of the Prime Minister, who has also been busy posing as being tough on immigration? (Griffin and other leading … figures took part in a St George’s Day parade through West Bromwich which was attended by 20,000 people).

    In a recent direct mail and survey about immigration, What son? declared: ‘Most people told me that they were concerned about the level of immigration. More surveys were returned than on any other subject I have asked you about in the past.

    ‘There is a great deal of worry about the pressure on schools, doctors’ surgeries and housing allocations.

    Also unsurprisingly, a lot of people also mentioned the issue of protecting local jobs. I want you to help me keep the pressure up on the Government in relation to reforming and updating our immigration and citizenship rules and laws.’

    In Burton, Labour MP Roof Smeeeeth has gone even further, actively campaigning to portray the Tories as the party that is soft on immigration.

    Defending a majority of just 1,421 – smaller than the number of … votes in her constituency at the 2005 election – Ms Smeeeeth has highlighted how London’s Conservative Mayor Boris Johnson is ‘campaigning for an amnesty for illegal immigrants’.

If you don’t like our version of comedy, PISS OFF.

    To the Indians who don’t like the speed of police investigations, PISS OFF. You get the same treatment as everybody else. Australians in general don’t condone violence against others. India can’t guarantee security within its own borders, so you are in no position to judge us. If you don’t like that, PISS OFF.

    To the Japanese who are killing whales in Australian waters, PISS OFF. This is not scientific research. Go kill whales in your own waters. And if you don’t like the fact that we will send protestors to harass you at every turn, PISS OFF.

If you want to wear clothing that covers your face, if you want to live under Islamic law and if you want to live in your own little enclaves, go and live in an Islamic country. Australia is happy to accept any religion, but don’t try and change us. Australia is a nation based on Christian principles. If you don’t like it, PISS OFF.

    To Sri Lankans who are coming over here on the never ending stream of boats, PISS OFF. This country is happy to accept legitimate refugees, but if you can afford 15 grand to pay people smugglers and bypass a dozen other countries, don’t expect to be welcomed with open arms. There is a legitimate refugee system and there are other more deserving people waiting in refugee camps. If you can’t stand to wait in line like the others using the system legitimately, PISS OFF.

    To the Croatians and Serbians who want to come to this country and bring your politics with you, PISS OFF. Your violence at soccer and tennis matches is a disgrace. Sure, you had lots of problems in your homeland. You came here for a better life. So leave the hatred and politics behind. We will welcome you, but if you bring your crap with you, we don’t want you. PISS OFF.

    To the English who come over here and never stop complaining, PISS OFF. We ceased being a convict colony over 100 years ago. We don’t want to hear how great the job market is in London, how cheap the houses are or how you don’t like the Australian climate. The solution is simple. If you think things are so much better in England, PISS OFF.

    To any nationality that wants to come to this country. This is Australia. We have our own culture, language, way of dress and attitudes. We champion the fair go and will welcome people of all nationalities, languages and religions. We will embrace you and enjoy sharing your culture. We will welcome you to our neighbourhoods. But if you want to change us, PISS OFF. If you want to live in your own little enclaves and not integrate, PISS OFF. And if you don’t even live in this country and want to complain about the way we do business, PISS RIGHT OFF. Get your own country in order before you even try and judge us.

          The fact is that a re-elected Labour government or a hung parliament especially one where Labour is the largest party will be cataclysmic for the UK.

          The markets are waiting the outcome.It won’t be plain sailing if the Tories are elected especially iif we have a hung parliament with them as the largest party but the first scenario is literally frightening.

          Let’s suppose that Labour scrape home or they ARE the largest party in a hung parliament. The first thing that WILL happen is a run on sterling.THe second thing that WILL happen is that there will be a Gilts strike leaving the Bank of England little alternative but to raise interest rates continued QE will not be an option to contain the markets.

          Taxation such as VAT will have to rise probably to 20%. There will be massive lay offs in the public sector; swingeing public expenditure cuts including front-line services(NHS/Education?Defence)Unemployment WILL rise and the tax take of the government will fall whilst benefit payments increase.National Insurance and personal taxation WILL therefore have increase as will Corporation Tax.

          You will see a flight of capital from London followed by major blue chip companies(some of whom have or already are contemplating such a move) followed by those people(including yes – bankers) to places that are more taxation friendly.

          So the choice is stark for the electorate.Vote Tory for tough times ahead.Vote Labour for economic disaster and even toughr times aheadThe problem is that the majority are sleep walking towards giving labour a mandate for another 5 years aided an abetted by labour “shills” in the media particularly the BBC.

          Darling know the score and so do most of the Cabinet(including Brown acolytes) only Brown is totally oblivious or perhaps even he knows the depths of the problem regarding the UK deficit but chooses to play politics in attempt to get re-elected(or is that elected)

    All this cristicism of me and my colleagues is quite unjustified. When I sat down with Gordon and Tony all those years ago and we thought up the New Labour tagline how were we to know how successful that re-branding would prove to be.

    We’ve just spent several hundred billion to subsidize your state sector employment and will continue to reward the great unwashed who have no intention of working so you will remain forever grateful that New Labour is very much on your side.

    You should also think yourselves lucky that despite Gordon having a bit of a temper and being harshly treated as a laughing stock around the globe Ed Balls, Alistair Campbell, Damien McBride, Charlie Whelan Harriet Harman John Prescott and I continue to tell you how it is…how it should be and how its going to be in the future.

    We’re not interested in what you say because you are wrong..you don’t understand what we’re doing its very complicated and you know you wouldn’t understand if we explained what we are intending to do next.
    In fairness to you, the British Electorate, we are not sure what we are going to do next but whatever it is you will be shocked and awed by our mendacity.

    Trust us we are the party of the people for the people..always have been always will be and when you have voted us back in for five more glorious years you will thank us for being so honest in our dealings with you.

    This election is about the future not the past and when it comes to the future you have no idea how far we will go to convince you we have all the answers.. we will stoop lower use any means twist any fact possible and generally wear you down until you submit to our way of thinking.

    Remember vote for Gordon and get five more years of new Labour ..a fairer future for all.

    9 out of 10 voters who expresed a preference said they wouldn’t vote for us but I know better..you will vote for us because you know we are getting on with the job of ruining this great country of ours in a way never previously managed by other parties.. so take a second look at us..then look in the mirror and see if we reflect your values.

    Why waste your vote on someone else who is unproven in their incompetence ? When it comes to graft, self preservation, hypocrisy, lies, double dealing two faced brass neck we beat them all.
