He claims to be, but hes really not. He was anti-EU for quite some time. But he is now appealing to luvvies and hipsters so playing that game instead.

Here we go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXTvsqUphMc

So anyone thinking a vote for him is going to keep us in service to the EU is being fooled.

All the policies prosposed to suposedly fix wealth inequality only focus on future wealth ie income tax.

None ever focus on existing wealth, something which would dramatically affect those in power and actually result in the massive influx of cash needed to back up any nationalisation or reform.

You cant fix the huge disparity we have now with a few extra percentent on income tax youd have to be looking at a huge charge on people with wealth.

I don't think that's an entirely fair summary. Recent Labour manifestos have included proposals for increases in inheritance tax and the idea of a mansion tax.

Oops - LibDem bigwigs Vince Cable and Sarah Olney caught on secret tape plotting to actively help Labour candidates in some constituencies. Kinda exposes what their leader Tim Farron was saying, about how he can't work with Jeremy Corbyn, as a load of rubbish. If this plot were to succeed it could mean Prime Minister Jeremy Corbyn, Deputy PM Tim Farron and Home Secretary Diane Abbot /shudder.

Hasn't Vince been fairly open about collaborating with other "left" parties to try and stop the conservatives? Whilst at odds with the party line I am not sure if that is really "secretly plotting".

Nope. Clearly the Tories are going to have a massive majority. This is about having a strong opposition, and like he said it's some people from Labour who have views close to his etc. Are you deliberately misinterpreting him, or are you just incapable of understanding simple concepts?

it's scorza you're talking about! he has clearly shown to live in a different universe to the rest of us.
 
A strong opposition is exactly what's needed. No government should have free reign to do whatever it likes.
 
I thought the Party Election Broadcast by the Conservatives on BBC today was interesting. It barely mentioned the party and made it all about May. Almost entirely positive until right at the end when it asked the viewer who would be a better leader, May or Corbyn. Putting any party loyalty to one side for the moment I thought it was a good piece of electioneering.

Her whole campaign is May. As I said earlier her appearances and rallies all the signs are vote May. It never mentions the Tories anywhere. The whole vote for your best local MP FPTP system has gone out of the window and May has turned it into a US presidential election. Probably a smart move.

Yep UKIP has lost it. john Bikley their immigration minister has stated their plan to replace all the missing seasonal workers lost due to their zero,immigration policy is a return to school kids and students fruit picking like they did in the old days as a rites of passage. Is the Chris Wilson's return to great British traditions? Perhaps kids can start cleaning chimneys again and going out to work at 11 instead of been a drain on society?

It's their tactic this time. Tory candidates have been given templates for posters which put May in bigger letters than Conservatives. May still, bizarrely, enjoys much greater personal ratings than the Tories while Corbyn has far worse than Labour. It makes sense.

It's an opinion peice? Whether he convinced you or not, only you can say. I presume the data he quoted can be checked. Whether you think his premise about whether that means you are strong and stable is the debatable bit.
 
I normally vote Conservative, but I truly hate Theresa May, her cabinet and everything she stands for. How can anyone possibly vote for someone has done nothing but fail upwards?

We get a small majority voting for Brexit in a none binding referendum and she drives us straight into a hard Brexit.
She pushes her agenda of digital madness of tracking everyone on to ISPs.
Her cronie Amber Rudd proves to be utterly clueless again about anything based in the digital world.
More privatisation of the NHS.
Cuts to education, this is madness. We need to be supporting and helping our next generation in every way we can.
and the list goes on ....

Not sure what to think, I normally detest Labour but honestly everything they currently stand for attracts me and everything the Conservatives and Theresa May is pushing is really what I am against... How can people vote for her?
