They couldn’t run a p*ss up in a brewery
Whether or not Labour could run a piss up in a brewery is untested, whereas we have absolute proof that the Tories can't.....

Really? Think you need to look at their record. Maybe take off your blinkers and see the good stuff they’ve done, could it be better? Of course it could.

I'd seriously be interested in you listing the positive achievements of the current government. I'd like to see how they balance out against the Brexit fiasco which is simply the worst piece of government mis-management in my lifetime and one which will take some beating.

List the "good stuff" but remember not to include tax cuts for the rich as one of them

Reduced the deficit
Increased the tax thresholds
Record investment in the nhs
Decent economic growth
Record number of people in work
One of a few to meet the gdp % for overseas aid
One of a few to meet the gdp % on military expenditure

They have done a lot of good things but also done a lot of bad things.

The promise was to eliminate the deficit. Fail

Increasing tax thresholds whist slashing tax credits and other benefits favours the rich and is just an illusion.

The NHS continues to struggle due to underfunding and the impact of profiteers being given favourable contracts for services and estate management.

Don't even know what decent economic growth means especially when it is funded by QE which has inflated asset values to exclude a generation from property ownership. In addition the QE has also benefited finance and not the real economy which provides jobs.

The record number of people in work is just bollocks. It's casual, insecure, exploitative and low paid for millions. They have created a nation of working poor whose wages are topped up by tax credits and where poverty is widespread and for the first time in generations millions are actually destitute.

I get f*cked over by a Tory government as much as I get f*cked over by a Labour government.

Makes no difference to my life who is in charge of 'running' the country.

Dohy is very wealthy. Not quite as wealthy as multi-millionaire Thor, but wealthy enough to still be a higher rate tax payer even though he's retired.

Dohy will not have experienced any of the damage these bastards have inflicted on millions upon millions in our society. That's why he's sniggering.

Betamax was a better system than VHS, but VHS was the system prefered by the porn industry so that's why it grew in popularity

No. But I can recall the good old days when most people could construct a sentence that made sense.
