Had a glance over it, pretty ambitious for sure.
Struggling with how they plan to nationalise utilities and stay in europe's rule set (no gov subsidies) - i think it will be a short mtg with Brussels over the manifesto and EU negotiations
Sadly for the thousands and thousands of small businesses (Ltd) its going to be lean times ahead.
CT going up and divs to be taxed within income tax system, looks like i may need to emigrate to keep my standard of living.

"For the many not the few" ! more like "20% off the many to fund stuff with few real benefits"
 
Labour hate anyone who works hard and earns good money unfortunately.

Luckily there's more chance of me being prime minister than Mr. Corbyn.
 
bloody red necks ,talk about robin hood more like robbing corbum. if he get in we are all doomed I tell you .

I am not right wing, whatever that means nowadays, for example Labour's manifesto proposes to scrap the bedroom tax, i agree 100%, its a stupid tax. They also propose to scrap UC, which is nuts as its the best system we have ever had (implemented badly by the tories), the last thing we need is the Tax credit system back again, its a shockingly bad system.
To think that the public sector can run essential services efficiently is almost an oxymoron. The in-efficiencies that public sector bring dwarf any profit a company can make.
Sadly, there is not a party , left or right, that is making sense to me and to cap it all the Brexit Party have pulled my candidate so as not to dilute the Tory vote......
Oh what to do....
 
Me reading labours man if ican sqeeze the last drop of monie from the top eaners like google or amazon take for instance amazon employe a lot of peaple. they can easaly pull the plug in uk and go abroad .so this pot of gold they going to get the monies from like you and me .the rich peaple do pay fair what about the doles some peaple want get off the bottoms to go to work when they now how to get a 60 in tv for nowt.
 
Didn’t labour say free high speed Internet for all?

They should start counting spoilt ballots (along with not voted) as a metric for how ----ed the political landscape is.

If the non voting/cock and ball drawing ballots outweigh any single party then something should be done to shake up the offerings as it shows dissatisfied public.
 
As we are all earning over £80 grand a year, its us that will have to shell out when Labour gets in.....

oh look, a flying pig :pigface::pigface::pigface::pigface:
 
I better start kick me tenants out before they get in cause they will ask the write to buy at a knock down price ,I could pitch a tent up in the garden and sell them a plot of land ..I have started to build a ark just in case its starts raining ,lol.

Don't bother, they won't have the right to buy.
When Corbun has done Nationalising all the Rail and Utilities and Seizing Private Schools he'll Nationalise all private rented accomodation.
Of course you'll get a fair price,,, more Pigs anyone.

You may be even luckier and he'll just sieze all rented property and save you the trouble of arguing about the price you've been paid as it'll just be Zero.

There's no such thing as the bedroom tax... it was a lie created by Labour to complain about the reduction in housing benefit paid to people to council tenants who were in properties with spare rooms. This was to bring it in-line with the treatment of all other tenants in non-council house properties (incl. housing association)

There's no doubt that the pendulum has swung too far in favour of big business and the filthy rich however the reason it has been allowed to happen is because Labour damn near bankrupted the country in the 70s.

How you get the pendulum to stop at a sensible point, one where endeavour is rewarded whilst the genuinely needy are protecte, is almost impossible.

I can't see Corbyn and the Abbopotomus delivering sense. Labours base is those on benefits, the public sector and gimmigrants who if given the chance will take more and more and it won't be off the likes of Amazon or Google but the middle earners.

That is why I'd have to go Tory, not because I trust or even like them, they're a known quantity but safe.

In my heart I'm a socialist but within reason, whenever socialists get power they lose all reason and eventually run out of other peoples money to give away.

No real choice to be honest.
