Absolutely this!!!, sick of lefty type actors sneering at us. I love the fact that the twitterati and social media puffs were gauging this election from online activities. The BBC fell for it. All the time there was a secret tory vote just waiting to pounce. Seeing that guardian twerp Owen snidey bollocks and kate ' I'm a feminist comedian' smurfit in total shock on tele has made my day. No body is going to listen to the bloggers any more. And don't get me started on Russell rapey Brand. Whoops, now I am sneering!!

Can't stand Owen Jones.

I was going to vote Labour, but voted Tory, because I don't like being told what to do by the Germans.

Angela merkel will be fuming knowing big Dave will popping over with his demands, she was preying it'll be anther hung parliament.

The outspoken intellectual snobbery that comes from some (note: not all) on the left seeks to sneer at those who vote Tory. They try to paint Tory voters as stupid, nasty, selfish and/or meek sheep of billionaire media magnates. Voting Tory is presented as being unfashionable.
.

For most of the 80's and early 90's being selfish (or looking after number one) appeared to be a badge of honour for the right. The patrician-tory, of which I would count Cameron as one, were labelled wet. When it looked like that was no longer a vote-winner it changed. And that was a good thing.

I know, its very odd. We should have leaders who want to be the party for our whole community, we should not leave out those who cannot work, or indeed those who choose not to work.

I assumed it was a way of saying "working class" without saying the words. It does seem a non-inclusive term. If a party wants to win it needs to appeal to a broad base (I'd have thought).

I've never been to the South coast of England and I always imagined Hove to be a posh place. How come Labour won it? Is it a bit like Hampstead, full of pampered Labour luvvies?
I'm not being funny, this is a genuine question.
