did you over spend...........NO?

[Vagabond]

I did try to get on the show, with it being on home ground, but no chance.

Your fellow Yorkies who did get in did not let you down - sharp perceptive questions and many times they did not let the politicians get away with evasive answers (although Dimbleby tended to save Milliband sometimes)

 

"Who did best ?" was the question asked by the media.

 

My answer, the audience - by a mile.

I recognised a couple of faces in the crowd, and knew they wouldn't give an easy ride. I think the three stooges knew that they wouldn't get one either.

As to evasive answers, Cameron gave more than his share, in fact I struggle to think of a straight answer from him. I don't think Milliband did too badly, but Clegg was just an apologist, and was resigned to hoping that he might have a part to play in any coalition.

The Question of the night? In my opinion it was when Clegg was asked if he'd given any thought to his future employment from May 8th.

Good grief chesters, against holiday pay now?

How more right wing can you get?

Err a couple of months not teaching (therefore not teachers)is not holiday its mandatory ........except for most staff NOT teachers ,when i worked at the uni it was 28 days holidays but the staff except the academics (posh teachers) worked through the "holiday" period,strangely the academics also took real holidays in term time as if they couldnt take them between terms so in reality far exceeded holiday time everyone else had.

The 28 days for mere mortals included bank holidays as these holidays only apply to banks (hence the term) there is no legal reason in england to let you have them off as a "holiday" so they are included in the mandatory holiday times you get in the year not ontop of them

 

My point was they are paid monthly whether they attend school or not and as the mps are no doubt paid the same way they are paid in the gap between dissolvement and reopening of parliament although technically their unemployed unlike teachers who are retained ,i think parliament holidays exceed even teachers ones! Even with the strange new form of holidays on the odd friday of teachers disapearing for "training"?! When theres plenty of time in the holidays to do it ,inset was the word i forgot

red ed was bumbling and stumbling, that why I put the link up. He was all at sea the poor bloke, I don't think he knew what hit him

 

one minute into the video he really did get stuffed by one guy who totally rubbished red's claim that labour didn't overspend.

Be very afraid of the scottish lady ,unlike the libdems she will ask and get everything she asks for ,the majority can vote its head off but she will decide who gets the power ,strange idea when they cried for independance now scotland will be the boss.

Thats the whole trouble with the undemocratic party system its fighting for the party not the voters

 

The lib dems did little but tell everyone how they stopped the tories doing this or that not what should be the case

helping the tories get good laws that favour the voter through parliament

 

It always amuses me these creeps in power use it to stop people doing things far far more than letting them have more freedom to do things

 

Labours 3'000 odd anti terrorism laws probably never stopped any terrorists but its great for stopping people doing most things infact the first person (as far as i know) it was used to arrest someone with was some old guy heckling the labour members at their conferance

Nothing wrong with racists wanting to put their own countrymen first ,the race card is high on all of their agenda ,you cant talk about immigration without being racist everyone who isnt english is probably foreign it all depends on how long your ancestors have lived here in some eyes ,milliband is one step from foreign LOL

 

Unless ukip beats libdems or that scots womans party in numbers he will have no power in the party system we have same as all the other minority parties ,the best they could ever do is introduce private members bills which are easily got rid of if it interferes with the governments agenda

 

Theres more power in council elections but even then they follow the party line so not a democratic system either ,all the times its tory vs labour vs lib dem its undemocratic ! in votes they just enforce the whips and try to defeat any atempt to bring in decent laws by the other party the only time your mp gets his voice (and hopefully puts his constituants first) is in a free vote
