Surely not even Cameron would want to patronise the nation's mothers in such a way?

100x, you are a woman, yes? You cannot possibly have an informed and considered political opinion then.

Oh no, no, no. Pick one thread at random, wholeheartedly agree with the opening post and vote accordingly. You know nothing until somebody's written a pleading OP full of emotional hyperbole.

Whatever you do don't try and make a decision based upon anything else. You will fill the cooking compartment in your head with political debate and that would never do. Apple pies have been ruined this way. I should know. I read a book once. Terrible decision.

There is a general tone of utter EXASPERATION if anyone expresses a different view

it's all 'you have no idea what you think. Let me tell you right now, what it is you don't understand'

"Because cameron's probably paying them.. "

then why doesn't he pay me , i've been on here for years and have been a good and loyal supporter aren't I the kind of person he should be slipping it too (money that is ).

Boo hoo, i'm not worthy.

what follows is a party political post on behalf of the conservative party;

Just bloody vote Dave Cameron OK, i'm paid on commission, the more you vote the more I earn. Enough said?

Excellent. We could devise a sort of pyramid selling scheme to secure votes?

That's strange - I only see the threads were everyone is voting Labour. Isn't MN strange - do you think it only shows you what it wants you to see. I often feel as though I have a totally different opinion to everyone in the MNet world.

No, think it does work a bit like that, and conservative voters have been a bit quiet and now getting noisier!

i'm not being completely serious about being appalled btw

The threads have been fairly balanced, some very tory , other pro labour but today the tone seems to be as the OP suggests.

I've only seen a couple conservative ones and a whole load of labour.

Probably because DC actually gave us something to be cheery about last night.

The tory voters are obviously scared they aren't going to win and are trying to scare everyone else in to thinking it's inevitable and therefore voting that way thus rendering it inevitable........iyswim?

Every few days there is an "I can't believe/ see how any mum/parent could vote X" thread. It seems fairly balanced between the parties to me...

Agree nothern.

They're trying to railroad us into believing there's no point in doing anything else

Of course we are silly, you guys have had it all your own way for the last couple of weeks, deflating our ego's and all...

Just think how awful we'll be to be around when we win...

OP: because it's true.

Plus we are finally getting our say after aeons of pro-Labour and pro-Lib-Dem bias on MN.
