    Because I understand what has been going on? Everyone now has a worse off pension. Yet you want 58 billion given to women because their pension age was brought into line with mens. Depends which way you look at it. Women want equal rights. And they should have equal rights. But they don't...

    But they did provide 200,000 temporary accommodations for the homeless. Does this count? It only costs billions a year which is wasted.

    I am a remainer. But I am not falling for the bullshit. Can't you see that Labour are pledging the financial stability of the UK? Can't you see that they are pledging what can't be done in the timescale they say? It doesn't make their manifesto look an honest one.

    Slim majority? The longer this goes on the bigger the majority. This is why I am pissed off with the way Labour are going into this GE. So answer the one question. Labour have said they will renegotiate leaving. The EU have said no more renegotiating. So why now and change what has been said?

    Why not argue for what Labour did to pensions? Final salary pensions were lost because of the tax dodge. All the money lost would have gone back to the consumers. And extra tax would have been raised from extra money in pots and pensions. But no. It is an extra 58 billion pounds that would be...

    Some of us can see it. Some of us have seen it before. And those who can't see it will then have a go about austerity measures that were needed to get the finances back under control. Saying that Labour have said about all the trees they will plant. Maybe they are money trees.

    So did that help answer the question? How will the agreement be renegotiated. Is this wrong? Let me remind you. Because you seem to have a poor memory. The EU have said they will not renegotiate. Labour say they will renegotiate. Try answering without twisting what I say. Then you will find...

    Praise? Tell me what is worth praise. You say the Tories took time to get the economy going when they took over. Correct. But if we were talking about Labour you would be pointing out and blaming the world recession that had just happened. I said about Labour introducing the top up fees for...

    But you keep blaming the wrong party. And when the error is pointed out it isn't so bad. It was Labour that wanted us to leave the common market. That let Maggie in. But when Labour finally got back in they kept to their pledge of not raising tax for the first term. But once it was over...

    Have you been asleep? The Tories have already got an agreement with the EU. How about try this one. No details of how the withdrawal agreement will be negotiated/its terms in the Labour manifesto.

    I have an idea. Let's vote in a party that will spend hundreds of billions and send the debt through the roof. We could all celebrate that. The good thing is we could always blame Brexit .

    Considering it was 74.6% and climbing in 2010.......And Labour were in power in 2010. The Tories wouldn't have made much difference that quickly. So why didn't the numbers even show that spending was going down before Labour took over? After all don't we like to have a go at austerity on here?

    1, How many under 25's would it need that didn't vote last time to double the Labour vote? 2, Do all under 25's vote Labour?

    Another Stabbing last night

    I was a boxer myself. I also worked the doors before the days of having to be polite to idiots. I found boxing learns respect. You would see people come in change very quickly. It gave many a different outlook in life. It even changed me from a cheeky twat to a respectful twat. And it kept me in...

    Another Stabbing last night

    I was a twat when I was younger. Would never start anything but would go flying in if anyone I was with or knew got attacked. Got away with it the few times I got my collar felt because it was down to self defence. Then the last time I didn't. The judge said I was going to get a custodial...

    Most people either want to leave the EU or have had enough of this crap so just want it all over. So what chance is there of another referendum? A few more months of talks with the EU. Then 6 months plus to get another referendum sorted. Not most peoples idea of fun. And on which side it would...

    So can I. Ignore and deflect. Even Labour voters get abuse from other Labour voters. Plans that cost untold billions that can't happen in the timescale given. A leader that won't say if he will campaign for remain or leave. We get told it is the best way to go. Yet those who are 100% Labour...

    And nothing to do with Labour? Mountains of rubbish in the streets, half the country on strike, dead bodies laying around as they couldn't get buried, power cuts for half the week and so on. Yes we were nearly bankrupt. But nothing to do with Labour although they took us from record low...
