You are getting me mixed up with Simmo says different person....I am not a working class tradesman
.....however, I would not rule out voting for Labour again (have done in the past).....and I was thinking only yesterday I really don't want to vote for the Tories, as they just do not deserve my vote.......but, but Labour are just not offering even sensible, realistic, achievable policies, it is cloud cuckoo land stuff, from them.Even if they had their message presented professionally and better, by a smooth talking young, enigmatic, engaging left wingers (thinking Syriza in Greece) they all individually are just so unelectable (just imagine Corbyn, the IRA sympathiser as PM, Diane Abbott, the maths illiterate, hypocrite as home secretary and John McDonnell the Marxist as chancellor
)...that thought alone should make any normal person wake up at night in a cold sweat and makes me want to vote Tory (and probably millions like me) just to stop it.I did not see many apprentices come through in the 13 years that Labour were in power. Where did they invest in the youngsters, must have missed it.

Out of interest, two months in, just 22 months to go, how are the Brexit talks going?

May's reference to 'dire' was interesting, accepting for the first time as far as I know the possibility that Brexit could have a catastrophic effect on the lives of (cliche alert) 'ordinary working people'. Perhaps the ordinary working people in question didn't realise that when they voted for it. Certainly, some of the frothier-mouthed posters on here still refuse to accept the possibility that all this could end in diminished lives. But we are where we are. The negotiations will run their course and, according to the Tory Party's Brexit boys, the result will be sunlit uplands or economic armageddon. The one thing the chaps in charge are sure of is that there must be no opportunity, if the result appears to be the latter (as May now accepts is possible), of those ordinary working people having the opportunity to choose if they want it or not before it happens.
Indeed, even suggesting such a thing is apparently the mark of undemocratic and mentally-ill hypocrites.
The bloody UK electorate, voting to leave the EU.
I didn't get my way, so I'm going to sulk and conveniently put to one side the millions of Labour and ex-Labour voters who voted for Brexit, and fib that only Tories voted out.
Cowardice let the great UK public have the clear choice. Instead the government should have left it to Parliament and Brussels to continue in devolving power to the unelected EU Commissioners.
The sad thing is that 15% to 20% more people will vote Tory than this version of the Labour party. It really angers me that they are doing that, when I know I'm correct on everything.

Bit like your spelling, yes.
Childish tripe from Labour as ever. Enjoy the future as a party as close to power as UKIP, or the Communist Party, never gonna form a credible opposition or government for 20 years.
And that folks is the Conservative argument. Surprised you didn't say pleb. I'll keep an eye out for your cutting satire from now on - I've never noticed you before.
All I can say is we had all these promises before from Labour, as the Who sang "Won't Get Fooled Again".
And I hope you enjoy the unfettered right wing agenda which is about to be delivered. I seriously hope you are a fit middle of the road, quiet, unassuming and obedient person with no non-mainstream interests. Because if you ain't, it's going to get difficult.

Don't think I have ever seen so many ludicrous posts from the Corbynistas.
Please, please, after the election, will sensible Labour supporters and MP's somehow get rid of this clown and start rebuilding a party that can become a respected HM Opposition.
I am speaking as a Tory voter.

Tripe...
Poor People.... Taking food out of the mouths of school children, picking the pockets of pensioners, 1% cap on public sector workers
Reduced disability benefit
Slow and gradual privatisation of the NHS
Tuition fees remain for young people..
Bring back fox hunting...
That's off the top of my head... explain the tripe in that?
EDIT: forgot to mention the pensioners losing their winter fuel allowance ... Who in their right mind would honestly protect this party. Look at the facts... Are you all aspiring millionaires protecting your interests for the future.

You want to reply to an insult but not to the two posts that highlighted your figures as highly misleading ?

A premature assessment. Let's see what happens when Brexit goes wrong.
Once again HT deliberately tries to mislead the good people of NSC. As HKFC so succinctly put it earlier..........the Brexit talks they are now two months into are not the Brexit talks they thought they were going to be engaged in (you know the ones the Brexit voters were told about)
In another 4 months it'll become so much clearer

Unfettered right wing agenda? Guaranteeing workers rights (and extending them), big increases in NHS spending (matching Labour promises), state interference in the energy market, going after wealthy pensioners etc.
Time for another name change .. The Conservative and Unionist workers party?
Are Tories the workers' party? Labour polling figures suggest they are
