Tory stronghold crumbling slightly?
Discussion
I've seen More and more people slowly beginning to voice anti Tory views on here recently
Is the Tory strangle hold on here beginning to crumble slightly? Does this worry the vocal Torys that their right wing house of cards might come tumbling down too soon?
How will the right wingers counter this? Are they/you going to step up the abuse and insults to put this insurrection down? How can control be taken back ?

Never thought the Torys were right wing at all. Overall maybe just right of centre at most, but not right wing.The decisions they are making are so contrary to what the electorate wanted I think they may encourage a shift further right. We expected cuts but mostly in areas that people see as non-essential. "ring fencing" the Overseas aid budget and cutting Defence is not considered part of that.

Seriously, get a memory people.
So the reason that they haven't cut forgien aid is?Seriously, get a memory people.
Forget about left wing or right wing or even what's happened in the past. What we need now is common sense and as far as I can see, so far that's what this government has in spades.
And that's what I think politically most people on here have, common sense. We realise that the last bunch have totally screwed the country and that you can no longer go on spending money we don't have especially on stuff we don't need. I would like to think most people here don't think right or left but are informed enough to make their own judgements and move on from there.
I will always remember the week after the election and suddenly realising that all those ridiculous adverts ("Cos I'm so stupid that I've run out in the street, if you hit me I'll die,""Don't forget to eat your five a day porky," "Here's your free DVD to stop smoking, buttsy," and of course "Is the little doggy going to die because all those PHers went to Le Mans daddy?") had vanished from our screens because this government has the common sense to realise that at the moment, none of this s
t matters. ALL that matters is stopping this country from tipping to a depression that it will take decades to recover from and would lead to us being at the beck and call of the countries who have spent the last two decades concentrating on actually making stuff rather than;
1.) 'Making' money chasing pieces of paper around.
2.) Paying people for doing bugger all.
3.) Paying people for inventing threats that don't really exist.
4.) Paying people for telling other people how to live their lives when all they actually need is common sense
5.) Encouraging people to believe that what they own is more important than who they are
6.) Encouraging people to believe that celebrities are more important than what's actually going on.
I don't know if this government will be able to get us out of this mess but I do know one thing. Nothing, No one, can POSSIBLY be as bad as the last bunch.
