Can't even remember what the reform was but it was really mild and nowhere near the full on PR we need.Long slender neck wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 12:01 pm It wasnt a good time for it and only the lib dems were backing it IIRC
Problem is Labour and tories will always campaign for the status quo. We need to get Niggle Furrage back to support this.

I don't understand how you can like any of these very poor politicians and their parties !Friend or faux wrote: ↑Mon Apr 22, 2024 8:52 am Seriously wonder about some Boarders wasting their energy knocking Labour, when we have the biggest chumps in a corrupt Government in charge of the UK. Still the Boarders in question, are: Proposition Joe & E10EU . Say no more!

soloman:- I don't understand how you can like any of these very poor politicians and their parties !
Unfortunately the Politicians have to work with what they have got. EG: the Electorate. Most of the Electorate want the Promised Land, whilst paying zero for it. Mrs Thatcher tapped into this & quickly sold off all the profit making Nationalised Industries ( BT, British Gas, Thomas Cook, Electric Companies etc ), mostly to their very rich mates. She used the money raised to ease taxes. Now the Governments don't have this revenue stream. We to a certain extent are stuffed. People need to wise up if they want their progeny to have a lovely Country, they are eventually gonna have to fork out. You don't get owt for nought

I was talking about Ordinary people ( the Electorate ), not Tory chums.
