One Hundred Years Late to the Party

Rather than looking to the future, be it fair for all or not, Labour have simply lifted the concept and style of old Tory posters for the cover of their manifesto. How far back did they go? Back all the way to 1910 and 1931 for their poster ideas:

Who said this government hadn’t run out of ideas?

      brown bread says:

      It’s a document where politicians don’t actually lay out what they are going to do. For example, we’ve had three previous Labour manifestos, and in not one did it state that they were going to increase immigration by indeterminate millions. Strange that.

        jgm2 says:

        They did promise a referendum on PR in their 1997 manifesto and a referendum on Lisbon in their 2005 manifesto. They also promised Blair would serve a full five years.

        Frankly I’m stunned Labour has the gall to publish a manifesto since it is a waste of paper. It is literally not worth the paper it’s printed on.

        A document only useful so that you can tick off the lies as they renege on every single fucking line. In fact this manifesto – approved presumably by Brown – will probably be – if he ever gets the chance to (not) implement it – the first manifesto in history where every single guarantee, promise or pledge turns out to be a precursor to exactly the opposite.

        ‘I will not use my family’ = ‘Will I fuck’

        ‘I have sacked the person responsible’ = ‘Have I fuck’

        ‘We are best placed’ = ‘Are we fuck’

        ‘No more boom and bust’ = ‘Like fuck’

        This guy just gets off on bare-faced lies. He ‘wins’ if when he spits in your face and blames it on the rain.

        Why anybody would believe a word that comes out of Brown’s lying mouth is a fucking mystery to me.

        Mr Ned says:

        They also did not state that they would lie to justify committing the ultimate crime against humanity. They promised that they would not raise student tuition fees, and then put them up. They have fucked up and lied about just about everything, and then lied again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again to cover these lies up.

        They promised not to raise income tax and created a top rate of 50%

        They justified this by stating that it is not being raised in THIS parliament. (the one that ended today) That means that it is being raised in the NEXT parliament and so this proves that they have ALREADY broken this latest manifesto promise to not increase income tax.

        They are planning increases in BOTH income taxes in the next parliament. Income tax and National Insurance contributions.

        Guess what? The BBC is NOT holding them to account over this… As if that is a surprise.

        They are lying sacks of shit and NOTHING MORE!

          VAT lowers your effective income.

          • Rip Van Winkle says:

            Depends what you spend most of your money on. If most of your income is used to feed yourself and hosue yourself – see 66% of the population – then you ain’t paying much in the way of VAT.

            However, if the wife is lunching with her mates, buys 4 jackets a week (see my sister) and generally spends fortunes on, in effect, tat, then she’s paying an awful lot of VAT from her….sorry, my brother-in-laws huge income.

            And anyway, as long as VAT is levied on ‘luxuries’ (which it’s not by the way), I have the choice of what I fork out for on luxuries. If Gordon takes half my income, I have no option.

      The Bottle Fed Triplet says:

      Calm Down Tommy! A manifesto is a series of proposed actions and plans put forward by a political party. When it was put to a court in Britain recently the judge ruled that the promises were onlt aspirations and unenforceable. Therefore, you, Mr. Atkins (aka one of the great mug public) can be promised whatever the parties like, and, like the rest of the great mug public, cannot make them comply.

      If, however, you are not a political party and are agreeing to supply, ooh, let’s see, a sack of spuds, and, you don’t deliver, well you can be sued with the full weight of the law.

      It’s the detail that’s important. A sack of spuds or decisions that will affect an entire country. One is important, the other is not.

      Doesn’t that make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, Tommy?

      banana republic watcher says:

      Wiki puts it this way

      In some parliamentary democracies, political parties prepare electoral manifestos which set out both their strategic direction and outlines of prospective legislation should they win sufficient support in an election to serve in government. Legislative proposals which are featured in the manifesto of a party which has won an election are often regarded as having superior legitimacy to other measures which a governing party may introduce for consideration by the legislature. Although, in recent decades the status of electoral manifestos has diminished somewhat due to a significant tendency for winning parties to, ignore, indefinitely delay, or even outright reject manifesto policies which were popular with the public upon taking office.

      An alternative term, used especially in North America, is party platform.

    Righty ho

    I am just back from my Indian Holiday which was wonderful and catching up on the campaign. I am furious that no one is addressing the most pressing issues like.

    Immigration and all the social issues it creates like;

    housing, jobs, overloaded services such as schools and NHS, loss of english values while accomodating everyone elses so called cultural sensitivites but our.

    Education – why do we have the thickest most ignorant young people being produced by the crap state schools. It seems the GCSE’s are a doddle making the figures look good. Kids that shouldnt be going to university under pressure to go when they would be better off in the workplace. Uni degrees are being devalued by the minute but the costs is spiralling.

    NHS – My wife and I pay over £600 a month in NHI. Fuck me we could have bupa fully gold service for that!!!! And how much do new guests to this country have to conribute before they get access to services… Fuck all!

    this is my first salvo …. more to follow as i am bloody angry grrrrrrrr!!

      The Bottle Fed Triplet says:

      I had a discussion with a “party activist” about immigration and asked why “the party” are complicit in stripping third world countries of their brightest and best people to staff the institutions of this country. I then asked why there are insufficient skilled and qualified people amongst the indigenous population. I summed it up by saying that they were depriving other countries of their key workers so that we didn’t have to train any of our own.

      I was, predictably, called a racist. After all it is easier to make an accusation of “hate crime” than give a straight answer to awkward questions.

      At what point will Labour cease fighting the ‘struggle’ for which the party was formed. After all many of the comrades who fearlessly led the fight(not) now live in large houses and dachas (many taxpayer funded) with lavish expenses and huge salaries,far above anything the average working man can expect to earn.
      Who are the real exploiters of the working classes now?

      Don’t forget, Jim Callaghan campaigned on the ‘Tory Tax Fraud’ in 1979 and that did not turn out too well… Might I suggest trying a few original ideas rather than nicking failed old ones.

    As long as you don’t believe in the concept that politicians aren’t in ‘power’ but should be respecting good governance.
    As long as you don’t believe that any of your money is your own and the government should consider itself good stewards of other peoples money.

    etc.

    The NuLab website seems to be overloaded. I’ve tried to download the manifesto with
    Safari and Lynx and it times-out every time. Nulab haven’t a clue how to run
    a website that scales with demand.

    So much for the Online Election.

    I hope they’ve printed their manifesto in 100+ languages, otherwise it’s going to be fucking useless in places like Tower Hamlets.

    Silly me, as if any of Labour’s core voters are ever going to read that pile of shite anyway, even if they could read.

      I hate New Labour says:

      It won’t matter what their manifesto says because:
      1. Labour are habitual liars.
      2. Their voters are too lazy and/or stupid to pay attention to read a manifesto.

    just heard from a friend in Birmingham. Only a third of the staff, hand picked, were allowed to go to work at the PFI hospital this morning and they had to be there by 5-30am. (Security) got the blame.
    There have been a number of lorries touring the area displaying the tory “vote for me” posters which have been getting bigger cheers than the Great Leader.

      Why was Labour allowed to launch their manifesto on NHS premises more to the point.I thought there were strict rules regarding this sort of thing in an election ?

    I thought there was a reason I was feeling hungry after seeing that manifesto cover. It looks like Labour asked the jolly green giant to design it

    The manifesto cover depicts a white family gazing at sunbeams over idealised English farmland,hardly symbolising New Labour,the party of urban voters and ethnic minorities.To give it credibility there should be a cuckoo in view.

    The UK offers free healthcare, edukashun, housing, and financial support to the whole third world says:

    The significance of the poster is that England is an empty place, much like Palestine before 1948, and is ripe for colonisation so to become a land of mult-culti plenty run from North London but with a few ghettos of aboriginals, a strange backward people who will spend there lives drinking beer brewed in old dustbins and then throwing up; sometimes they will launch suicidal attacks on the rightful new owners of the country and consequently have to be punished with white phosphorous shells. Bliss.

    I wonder how long it’ll take for some wag to redraw the manifesto cover and replace the rolling hills with Prescott’s housing developments, or to draw it as a barren ruin thanks to all the farmers who have gone out of business?

    Every time I see that gurning idiot, it makes me want to retch. “We fucked the country up, so vote us back in so we can try to repair it, or fuck it up even worse.”

Norman Tebbit has a humble brag:

“We Maastricht rebels were derided and abused for opposing the single currency by the wise, clever, Guardianista soft centre left establishment from whom we now hear so little on the matter.”



The last Quango in Paris says:

Mr Bryant and Mr Watson managing to make the whole hacking affair look like a farce – the more they moan the less I care about the whole subject! So partisan it beggars belief at all costs. They cannot rise above it ! If I was to call the PM a ‘liar’ I would want to be VERY sure.
