3 BOTH Labour AND Conservative want to kill off the NHS as its drains,at the moment just too much resources from the national kitty/Tax/ funding everybody else except us!
4 ?:up:

1. More to do with a oil war, who will win? Watch this space..

2. I don't trust the employment figures just like I don't trust the unemployment figures. The Tories state more people are in full time work, what about part time work or worst still zero hours.

3. Tories are destroying the NHS faster but I can not say Labour is saving it as they did bring in PFI by the back door.

4. (Page not found) No comment.

Tony Blair has declined to appear before a Commons select committee investigating links between the IRA and Libya.

The former prime minister has strongly denied trying to stop victims of IRA attacks carried out with Libyan weapons from receiving compensation.

Why?

If he is in the clear then no issue, saying no is making lots of people wonder what is it he is hiding?

Marr: So what is Labours policy on Trident?
Corbyn: I'm glad you asked me that since we haven't really spoken about it, look...how about we keep the submarines but take the nasty nuclear bit out of it.
Marr: So...a nuclear missile submarine without any nuclear missiles?
Corbyn: Oh no, we keep the missiles, just take the warheads off
Marr: ....and who will tell the Russians that it's an empty missile if it's launched?
Corbyn: ....
Marr: ....
Corbyn: So about these strike laws...

JC is showing signs hes deep in what should I do, grab the plank of wood or paper bag or or or as he floats around at sea.


I like the way the right wing press and Tories are bashing him almost everyday saying hes the worst thing for labour. If so how can that be coming from the Tories he is the best thing as the result more votes for the Tories. Worst thing to me means he is a major threat to the Tories. I am not the only one who has picked up on that.

I see the pro in EU campaign has been given big sums of money from two corrupt banks, first Goldman Sachs and now yes you got it JP Morgan and Chase.

Who is next I ask, HSBC. :hmmm:

Jimbuna 01-22-16 09:10 AM

I doubt all the money in the world will be enough. Next comes the NO vote.

STEED 01-22-16 09:15 AM

If ToffBoy wants to run a clean campaign he better send every penny back to those corrupt banks. And if the out campaign gets dirty money they too should hand it back.

BossMark 01-22-16 09:48 AM

If toffboy wants us to stay in, then I'll vote to get out and screw toffboy....

On the back of recent JC news I was watching ALEINS last night had a bit of a laugh..

Quote:

Two founding members of the SDP have speculated that there could be another breakaway from the Labour Party.
Former Labour foreign secretary Lord Owen told the BBC's Newsnight critics of Jeremy Corbyn should "fight like hell" for the next two years but that creating a new party was an option.
Baroness Williams said she saw a new party of the centre-left party reviving "the concept of the SDP".
She said Mr Corbyn was "an idealist" being "manipulated" by others.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-35367714

Set up a new party now and be done with it.

Chris Grayling - "Here here"

Then suddenly thinks oh bugger.

ToffBoy makes a mistake..
