Thankfully, the sweeping statements and generalisations from people like Dandyman say more about them than UKIP voters. It makes them look rather prattish and arrogant.
Only responding in kind.
The two aren't remotely similar - one is actually selling off state assets and the other is contracting out the running of those assets for a fixed period. The later you can just let run its course but the government always owns the asset. The former means if the...
Oh dear, simplistic 6th form economics from you then. You need to buy out the shares to bring it back under public ownership - utilities were SOLD not OUTSOURCED ! You really don't get economics do you ? :facepalm:
There is NO surplus - it is a reserve to pay up and coming liabilities - unless of course you think it right not to pay the state pensions next year ?
It hasn't cost anything close to £150bn to bail out the banks. Most of that cost was the government acting as a guarantor - i.e. they would pay...
Or of course you could have backed up your claim in the first place. Anyway, is there really a surplus ? I note that Labour haven't mentioned it as a party - they haven't suggested there is some pot of money not spent, instead they have suggested a mansion tax to help plug the NHS gap. Why would...
Yes, very good Dave. It does beg a question though - it is constantly stated that UKIP are far right and just an alternative to the Tory party so why did a Labour member join them ?
Intrigued by the last bit of your post - why ? Are we no longer allowed to discuss UKIP on NSC ? Do we have to ask your permission ? If you don't wish to read a thread about UKIP was the thread title not obvious enough for you ?
What on earth does your military service have to do with being able to debate a point without resulting to petty name calling and generalisations ?
But as you clearly want a willy waggling competition - no I haven't served but for many years I worked in the defence industry working on projects...
Sadly his only responces to the debate seem to be ridiculing generalisations with no substantual argument. I have no idea why he won't participate in debate rather than hurl insults.
Maybe if you let the red mist drop from your eyes you might be able to see what different individuals write. I have never 'dissed' to use your rather pathetic word the British public. Such a generalisation somewhat shows your stupidity. It is as daft as me saying all ex-pats don't love Britain...
