Ge 2017

Anyone see Damien Green on Marr this morning? Strong & Steady? No, Weak & Wobbly... and clueless too. It was a complete car crash.

And as for the last 3-4 minutes of the same show when he appeared alongside John McDonnell? He was completely owned and exposed as nothing but a self-serving hypocrite.

The current gang of Tories look next to useless outside their stage managed bubble and it's no surprise May is terrified to appear on a platform with any of the others.

Oh but hang on, of course, silly me. It's not that she's windy at all. Because knocking on a few hundred doors for the press pack gets the message across to the entire electorate so much more effectively than participating in a live TV debate likely to be watched by 10,000,000 + voters.

Do they really think we are all so moronic that we will suck up such drivel? 

Green trying to defend his Dementia/Stroke/MS tax was desperately horrible.
McDonald totally sandbagged him with his previous job making lots of money working for deregulated energy companies.
They really are the Nasty Party again.
I thought I was a somewhat single minded in my views but you two are unbelievable.
 
The new theory in Scotland is that the Tories now realise how bad Brexit is going to be that, before the election, they will launch a number of policies like the Dementia Tax to deliberately lose the election.
 
Seems the tories have upset a few of our more senior members of society with their ideas on paying for social care. Well I suppose after targeting school pupils, anyone ill and anyone on benefits then they may as well make things worse for them as well. Strong and stabley as she goes......

I must be moronic. I thought McDonnell definitely won on points, but car crash? I would expect a Shadow Chancellor to know the numbers better. Car crash... rose tinted spectacles are colouring your vision.
 
Just to clarify. My "moronic" reference was in respect of this.

Does anyone really believe that May's reticence to participate in live TV debates is because she thinks getting her message across more effectively can be achieved by knocking on a few doors (for the media) and not appearing in front of millions?

Fair enough if people do but I'm afraid I'm not buying it.

Maybe you have an overactive dislike of her.

Very interesting how this weekend had seen a turnaround in the polls.
Labours manifesto on the face of it looks highly attractive, compared to the rather glum Tory one, which as a blue Tory leaves me a bit cold.
Their Uni fees policy will be highly attractive especially to younger voters

BUT how are they going to pay for it all? Massively increasing corporation tax will generate a lot of money, but that is coming at a time when Brexit is happening when we want to keep business here and not let it drift abroad.

I fear that this tax increase will have a negative affect on the economy in terms of corporate investment, jobs R & D etc
You will see more big companies moving to Eire where the rate is 12.5%

Think that the public is totally fed up with however many years of austerity it has been, they need to be cut some slack and they ain't seeing it in the Tory camp.

This could get very interesting indeed
