    [Politics] Tory party annual conference Birmingham

    Well big political partys in these times with the polls neck and neck will need to chase the young new voters and get them engaged. They could be the tipping point in many a marginal. https://www.theguardian.com/books/video/2017/jun/10/tony-walsh-performs-his-election-poem-net-worked-video

    [Politics] Tory party annual conference Birmingham

    Has anyone watched this Owen Jones video from the conference - 2.20 in interviewing a young chap when other party members start getting involved, weird https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=495&v=zIcz1nSk9oQ

    [Politics] Tory party annual conference Birmingham

    She has promised the end to austerity (hopefully reversing most the cuts and reinstating many roles made redundant). She highlighted their failure on cancer screening and life chances. So hopefully that gets turned around. She lost me pretty early asking everyone to come and work together...

    [Politics] Tory party annual conference Birmingham

    A speech just full of contradictions. She did say she was going to fix the trains, didn't say how, hopefully it will involve talking to its workers.

    I agree its a ten minute rule bill, however its likely to be filibustered by some rural back bencher.

    [Politics] Tory party annual conference Birmingham

    I am working thanks for your input, but I do actually like to stay educated on these matter thanks, rather than respond to much to snidey remarks I will keep watching all the conferences. Perhaps she will announce to get toilets back on our trains or deliever how she is fixing the above things...

    [Politics] Tory party annual conference Birmingham

    So lets see what way May takes this, and if she addresses any of the issues she has previously talked about - and in my eyes failed on. Mental health - “If you suffer from mental health problems, there’s not enough help to hand.” Equality pay - “If you’re a woman, you will earn less than a...

    [Politics] Tory party annual conference Birmingham

    Its a remark based on replying to a quote about May not bringing in any new radical ideas, its highlighting what has been leaked that she will talk about. If you think all I do on this board is make snarky remarks, have a look I am not about that. I have only ever voted Labour once (in...

    I am expecting a big blast at the EU, preparing for the inevitable cliff edge or what many in her party will see as a bad deal. Setting up for the blame others mantra from next March. Playing to the peanut gallery (and the DUP) and populist sound bites, rather than clear polices and solutions.

    Yes she was one of the people taking this to the high court. No paper or consultation made at all just straight to cuts. However much the government trys to talk up the economy, this is the elephant in the room, fund basic services at least or you are not doing your job in helping all your citizens.

    Boy, is anyone else watching this its like watching a film of a party political TV broadcast. This mornings is like Star Wars Franchise though they just keep coming and coming, repeating the same scripts.

    [Politics] Tory party annual conference Birmingham

    The trouble with Tory conferences is they are just a list of speakers pushing various agendas, no debate, no votes, little influence. Bit of tub thumping and slag off and smear your opponents. I quite like a conference in the background while I work, but the Torys have the dullest, they are...
