to think voting for milliband must happen to save the country

[suziepra]

He will re nationalise the railway , end the bed room tax, increase state pensions, stop the cut and enable employment to grow.

Must not for ed to sort out this mess and stop the nasty torys from making the rich richer and poor poorer

[LittlePeaPod]

As good in government as they were last time there is no money left

[Vingtdeux22]

I'll be voting Labour. Not expecting utopia but believing that they will be a better government than the current one.

[SuperWifeANDMum]

I sincerely hope this is a joke?

I cannot fathom why anyone votes Labour.

They encourage immigration and this appalling benefit culture we are currently in the midst of and not forgetting to mention sending this once great country into a crippling recession.

This Conservative government has done remarkably well considering the mess they were left from the last Blair/Brown Labour government.

suziepra I take it you are one of those benefit claimants? How else can you justify ending bedroom tax? Why should benefit claimants reside in houses provided by their local authority that have more rooms then they require, then use housing benefit to pay for this?

Voting Labour will be catastrophic for this country in terms of the NHS, Immigration and National Debt.

Hopefully next election will see a Conservative government with Theresa May at the helm.

Interesting how few posters here actually spell Miliband's name correctly.

Anything to boot tories out and keep Ukip at bay

[ChangeIsNear]

Ed milliband has spoken up about Gaza, he is definitely getting our votes!

[GrainDeMalice]

They are all as bad as each other. Tony Benn's last diaries make interesting reading. He thought Blair was a fuckwit and the Israelis were bombing Gaza then too. I wish he was here in a younger incarnation (Tony Benn that is) to offer a true alternative. He foresaw that the rise of UKIP and the BNP as all the parties have demonised the working classes.

No way will I vote Labour next year - the Economy is not recovered enough yet to support their reckless spending!

[hiddenhome]

I always used to vote Labour........then Tony Blair and Gordon Brown happened

Labour always screw up the economy

[dawndonnaagain]

Disgusting. The party of the people

No more disgusting than the insidious little tale of shirker and worker. Oh, I know, let's blame the poor and the disabled for our economic predicament.

[WatchingSeaMonkeys]

Anything to get the Tories out of government. Nearly every policy of theirs has been for the benefit of their own purses. They have ruined our country.

Interesting, I thought they'd fixed it -

Britain’s economic outlook received another boost today when the International Monetary Fund raised its growth forecast for the UK to 2.4 per cent this year.
The upgrade - from a previous estimate that gross domestic product would rise by 1.9 per cent - means that the IMF puts the UK ahead of most of its first-world rivals in the race to recover from recession back to full output.

Do you honestly think that would be the case if Labour had stayed in control? This has happened despite Labour....

[KnittedJimmyChoos]

Where has the Op disappeared to?

Indeed.

[Cherriesandapples]

Just keep picturing Ed Milliand badly running a bath!

[LittlePeaPod]

Where has the Op disappeared to? Is this one of those threads where Op says something without thinking and then dives for cover when they realise they actually have nothing to say?

[Viviennemary]

at 'I wouldn't trust him to run a bath'. Not heard that one before. I'm almost feeling sorry for him now!

[FunLovinBunster]

"I wouldn't trust him to run a bath..."
RVPIsNoMore is spot on.

[FunLovinBunster]

I won't be voting Labour. Why would I want to vote for a party who succeeds in bankrupting this country every time they are in government?
And why would anyone want to support Ed Miliband since he stabbed his brother in the back? All that proved was that he couldn't be trusted. He screwed his family over, it'll be the UK population next.
Even Labour politicians don't like him, or their policies.

[SaucyJack]

YABU. I don't think ending the spare room subsidy is going to save the country for starters.

[ChangeIsNear]

YADNBU. Anything to get the Tories out of government. Nearly every policy of theirs has been for the benefit of their own purses. They have ruined our country.

[MarshaBrady]

It annoys me as they could have had a far easier sell. Why be so crap at image and messaging.

[Picklepest]

No way will I vote for labour while they have no policies and a shit leader.

[KnittedJimmyChoos]

"Dear Chief Secretary, I'm afraid that there is no money. Kind regards and good luck. - Seems they are proud of it*


Proud of it indeed, a real joke when they failed on lifting children out of poverty and infact made it worse for children in poverty.

Disgusting. The party of the people

Councils loosing count. Local Polish community leaders say as many as 10,000 Poles have arrived in Slough in three years


The government's estimates show Slough's population is decreasing, while the council in Slough reckons it is growing so fast that about one in ten people here are simply missing from the books, not accounted for. And that has a direct consequence for everyone living here.


The government - the LABOUR governments estimate is that the population is decreasing!!

[caroldecker]

The Labour party has always left office with higher unemployment than when they started.
The unions destroyed British manufacturing, not the Conservative party
Liam Byrne, current Shadow minister, left a note when the Labour party left office saying "Dear Chief Secretary, I'm afraid that there is no money. Kind regards and good luck. - Seems they are proud of it.

[MarshaBrady]

The recent economic crisis means they have to do more than sell the usual left spend more message. They need to reassure people that the economy will continue to grow and how.

I'm not keen on a further divide between too and bottom but the crisis is too recent to think that growth isn't key.

I can't believe they didn't have the foresight to put David up, that just lacks insight to what people generally want, which puts me off even more.
