The polls are saying the government is wrong, business is saying the government is wrong and now a Tory MP has said Cameron and Osbourne are out of touch.

"...Unfortunately I think that not are only Cameron and Osborne two posh boys who don't understand the price of milk," she said. "They are two arrogant posh boys who show no remorse, no contrition and no passion to want to understand the lives of others - and that is their real crime."

I don't know the price of milk either (I just load it in the trolley and pay)...

Does that make me posh?

You mean Nadine Dorries? Isn't she considered a bit of a fruitcake? Isn't her voting record in the Commons a bit odd considering what she is saying now? blink.gif

Who really needs milk these days? If you are having cereal just use water not kidding it tastes exactly the same.

Her voting record is 72%, the same as Richard Benyon.

I mean what she voted for and against, not how many times she voted.

I agree with Nick spartacus. I haven't a clue how much milk costs either.

Cereal with water sounds horrible. Plus I drink tea the proper way.

She's right, partly. Its the same no matter which of the parties get in, and don't expext Red Ed to make it all better, they're all arrogant and all thoroughly out of touch, as well as being scared to tackle the real issues of the day. 1e; Bankers bonuses, runaway immigration, Fuel prices, the feckless and jobless, crime, the NHS, maniacs running around putting up windmills everywhere in the name of 'ecology' the export of jobs to other countries. Instead the expend their efforts on putting VAT onto Hot Pasties ! I mean for Gods sake !

Don't get me wrong, I have always been a supporter of the Blue ilk but this lot really don't have a clue, and its not gunna change either, Red or Blue thay are all almost without exception the dregs of the Political Pond, it makes me laff that DC is more worried about his image abroad than he is about his own country, I wouldn't mind if Labour got in if I thought they would get us back on track, but they won't. It will only get worse. We need a Party of the Left and a party of the Right with a good strong hand on the tiller. This lot ? don't make me laff.

Thats the problem with our democracy now? Most voters are disenfranchised. We have to vote to try and keep out the party we dont want in rather than have a vote for a party we want in government. There is no party that I want in government. angry.gif

Tricky how families evolve. I had a father who was sort of Genghis Khan.
He had a brother who was a bit left. (Communist)
Tried to bring down a government by taking over a union. (It is in "Times on Line").

Electricians, Well they turned the switches on/off in power stations. Innit. Power to the People.

I must feel like an old KGB colonel does – things used to be so simple!

In the UK we used to have a left-wing party, a right-wing party and a party that claimed the middle ground.

Now we just seem to have “the political class”. There can hardly be a fag-paper got between their policies. On the economy, one party would cut a little more slowly than the other.

We have rich Labour politicians trying to play the envy card against the Tories, and rich Tories trying to be socialists. I do not want to see the rise of “extreme” parties, but what we have at present is a shower.

I totally agree with this. I thought we would get a strong and effective government following Labours abysmal term in office. What we have is a shambles of knee-jerk responses and a spineless watered down leadership.
And the alternatives are equally useless.

I agree. We have three social democratic parties with very little to choose between them.

Nonsense. I am British and will fight for the right to have milk in my tea. The only options are 'in first' or 'in last'.

From a teapot, then milk in first. Teabag in a mug, milk in last.

Precisely, in both cases. And the teabag must be removed before the milk goes in.
