The General Election Thread

Red Ed Balls " I'd like to thank my team , who I employed on zero hours contracts"

The latest "name" to tumble - I went up at 3.30am and come down to a landscape littered with high profile political dead. Wow !! Labour seriously underestimated the shambles they had created north of the border but most of all the pro-UKIP feeling amongst the electorate in their Northern Heartland. Just shows that ultimately to reap what you sow albeit these seeds were first sewn by Tony Blair - successive Labour leaders just failed to maintain the crop since then !!

My concern now is Britain is not going to be a happy place for the next 5 years - not going to be a place to get sick, need benefits or work in the public sector - I hope my fears are unfounded but I doubt it.

I think some people are getting over excited it will be a very small minority which will be a nightmare for the Tories

No it won't.

Sinn Fein don't vote. The speaker doesn't vote. The DUP won't be going against most things, nor UKIP.

They'll pass most things by a good dozen.

It will keep Cameron honest though.

If you only knew what they have planned for public services in this country I don't think you would be so happy their are cuts on the way the like of which have never been seen before, there will be social breakdown of course they will have row back like they had to last time they tried this, the good news is if they hold good they will lose the next election

i am tempted to say even by your idiotic standards thats poor but i won't as i am not that rude ! - I will simply ask how do you know about these cuts?

Labour are fucked

For now... if they get rid of this freak who is leading them and elect somebody who knows what they are going on about and tones down failed socialist dogma they might...just might....have a chance again

Why are they lies, do you not think Dave wants to privatise the NHS? Of course he does he will be lining the pockets of his mates.

Oh and just a side note when you have a heart attack there will be a fire engine turning up in the future with basic equipment not a full ambulance with highly trained paramedics, just a few firefighters with basic life support, but then again that's ok because that £8bn they pump in will be going into management pockets.

More lies.

And I'd calm down sunshine or it will be you having that heart attack.

Why can't the left lose graciously?

Lies well you better come tell my watch then because it's called a CRIT team at the moment sunshine, and the fire service are going to be doing it in the next year.

She'll be happy deep down. The English won't be up for her constant moaning and will be pushing for a break in the union.

What labour would do if that happens God only knows. England is usually Tory

A perfect night for the SNP. They got the result they wanted in Scotland and the UK as a whole

what i don't get is why they voted no in the independence referendum given last nights result, baffling?

Because English folk living in Scotland were allowed to vote, do you think any of them voted for an independent Scotland ?

 

[DavidSilvasLeftFoot]

I hope Labour now realize we need to change the voting system

Politics aside, the lass that just beat Balls would get her back doors smashed in no problems!
