I can tell you this for nothing, I've always been a labour voter and have been proud of it as well, but Millipede and his ministers were as useful as a chocolate fireguard and that's why I didn't vote for them.

Question Time on the BBC last night, sums the tory tax credit policy up perfectly.

Sadly though, those words will be music to Gideons ears. The fairest but obviously longest way would have been to either change the rules on means testing or make it date related (as of such a date new claimants will be assessed under the new rules).

Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

Great I can nip across the boarder while Toff Boy destroys them here in England. That was close shave I was planning to use France!

Steve Bell's Monday cartoon shows the SNP leader saying she would work with a Labour government after the May election but would not compromise on its "core demand" of "incest and Scottish Country Dancing".

I hear Theresa May is targeting hate crime! Are you going to slap the cuffs on for your crimes against the poor and people with physical/mental problems? From where I am standing the Tories just don't give a dam about these people apart from making their lives a living hell.

Very doubtful that the evil nasty Tories will answer to any of their crimes, and don't get me going on that health secretary, what he is, is name rhymes with a very naughty swear word.....

George Osborne facing pressure from Conservative MPs to rethink tax credit cuts

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...-a6698971.html

I don't think he has any other choice or failing that he will hand back much of the support Labour have gifted him with.

I must admit to having a bloody good laugh whilst watching the state banquet at Buckingham Palace live on Sky News last night.

That hypocritical Mr Unelectable dressed up in white tie and tails looked almost dishevelled and so out of place, then to top it of he didn't have the courtesy to bow his head (unlike all the other dignitaries, including his own shadow chancellor) as his monarch walked past him.

I did notice however how he had no problem eating the food she provided.
