The General Election Thread

those people that go on the lash in Hebden Bridge prior to watching City away at Burnley while claiming DLA.

Fuck me thats low.

Are disabled people not allowed to be normal occasionally or would you prefer i was locked away in an institution for cripples and starved to death.

If that comment was aimed at a BM poster that is bad form.

In current projections, Labour and SNP could for a coalition to govern

Fucking hell, the last couple of pages have gone a wee bit weird......!

RWNJs trying to deflect attention away from today's bad poll news for the Tories.

Never commented on the poles at any stage as they are at best guess work and all polls have fallen within the accepted margin of error so worse than useless.

Not the link i was looking for but one similar

UKIP's poll rating seems quite steady how do the figures equate to seats though?

Calm down flower - no need to get so jumpy. Can't you take a joke? ;)

18% is the magic figure for UKIP where a handful of seats eg 4 or 5 could turn into 20+

Only if one has undergone a sense of humour bypass.

Aimed at me because i was well enough to go to Burnley and had a few beers in Hebden Bridge. My 2nd away game all season.

Thankfully MCFC treat disabled fans better than some of the fans treat the disabled

I knew you'd bite ;)

Perhaps you've forgotten what I said last week and that was that it's not for me to judge your situation. Disabilities are many different shades of grey so you should've borne that in mind when I went on my little fishing trip.

Care to explain how you've arrived at that conclusion Karen?

So why the fuck would you make jokes about people with disabilities?

Not clever, not funny.

I won't quote the excellent graphs Damocles posted but as things stand it looks like the another coalition of sorts

I think the Tories up to now are having quite a poor campaign as are UKIP, however I think some of it is tactical keeping their powder dry, there is still a fair way to go and what is said today will likely be forgotten by polling day, why expend the energy

It's all looking interesting far better than having a dead cert, and keeps the bastards on their toes

The one thing that would frighten them is a large turn out, at the moment they quite often get away with things because they quite rightly think that many people are not interested

 

[Lucky13]

If the unemployed were to stand on street corners thanking people for there welfare payments they would be in breach of DWP rules and sanctioned, which would lead to them losing there welfare.

So i think thats pretty stupid.

prove that

that's bull shit! what rule could they be breaking?

They have to be actively seeking work and provide proof of the fact.

Piccies of them stood on a corner is not looking for working.

If you are 1 minute late for a job interview you can be sanctioned. If you fill a form in wrong you can be sanctioned, if you turn up looking scruffy you canbe sanctioned.

This is the real world we live in today

I would be sanctioned if I was late for work.

I would be sanctioned if I did not fill out my paperwork.

I would be sanctioned if I looked scruffy at work.

This is the world I live in , why should it be different for the benefit monkeys?

If it was a joke it was one in very poor taste. Can I suggest you just apologise instead of trying to dig yourself further in?

Mod Note

FFS can we talk about the forthcoming General Election please

If you want to talk about benefits and their claimants start another thread

One more thing quit the nastiness as well there is absolutely no need for it

The one thing that I am hoping for is a large turnout just like the swetty's had in their referendum then there can be no complaints about the outcome who/ what ever we get.

Same here, what the people who don't vote can't see is that by not doing so they are giving them the mandate to do as they want

It's going to take something pretty siginificant to make me not vote for UKIP now as there's no way I can put my name against any of the LibLabCon lot on moral grounds and UKIP offer better odds of spoiling their party than the Greens. However if we had PR, or if the Young People's Party were standing in every seat, I'd vote for them. <a class="postlink" href="http://www.yppuk.org" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">www.yppuk.org</a>
