snowgirl29: "But it's your Husbands vote and he's perfectly entitled to use it as he chooses to."

Of course he's entitled to use it as he chooses to - but the OP doesn't have to be happy with it.

The DH is entitled to pick his nose in public, swear at his kids and spend six hours a day looking at hard pornography. Should the OP accept that with equanimity too?

"I don't get why being left wing liberal is seen as socially acceptable, and anything else and you are meant to feel shamed by society."

Because, for a start, tory policies, time after time mean that communities are torn apart, people including thousands of children are pushed into real poverty, our assets are sold off, people are made homeless, disabled people are punished, vulnerable people have their safety nets taken away.

Many people suffer and die because of tory policies. I can back this up if you like.

They lie, they make promises they don't keep and hope we'll all forget (remember the pledges at the last election?)

Money is made for big business and the ultra-rich though, so a price worth paying Hmm

If you support the tories, yes, you should be ashamed IMO.

If you are being so judgemental about someone else having a different opinion to yourself and attempt to bully them with this sort of "thought policing" behaviour, that is what is shameful IMO.

so, hack, being a tory voter is the same as watching hard core port for 6 hours everyday. Should we round tory voters up and put them in a camp? I'm glad you're not a tory voter but, if you were, I'd respect your decision.

or even hard core porn ( wonders about hard core port)Grin
