Vote Conservative on June 8th

lol

It is funny hearing that word. Brits are probably the biggest cucks in Europe.

"We are also overpopulated and the number of elderly is increasing by a large margin. Look at the statistics. We also currently pay £10 billion a year NET towards the EU and have also given contol of many of our laws to the European Commission. Do your research about these areas too, then you will understand"

^ That was not rubbish. Their facts. Money is a problem but it isn't the only thing that can solve the issue. There are other factors too that are causing problems such as the high population and increasing amount of elderly.

Economically stable? The conservatives have put us into more debt than any government has ever done in history.

So are the Conservatives going to address the shocking real wage growth pattern over their time in government? Our shoddy productivity that is going to bite us in the ass? What about our poor investment levels in science and technology?

Or are people happy to accept that the economy is stable and sweet on the basis that chucking a couple of hundred thousand peeps into the workforce each year creates a bit of GDP growth?

Less knowledgable youngsters like you need to realise that the NHS is underfunded and over loaded because of our membership of the European Union. We are also overpopulated and the number of elderly is increasing by a large margin. Look at the statistics. We also currently pay £10 billion a year NET towards the EU and have also given contol of many of our laws to the European Commission. Do your research about these areas too, then you will understand.
Jeremy Hunt isn't allowed to spend more or change the circumstances of the NHS because we currently have a contract of £10 billion payment towards the EU every year. If he breaks this contract, our country could face extra fines and project cut offs, plus the European Union would also spread misconceptions and widespread false criticism of Conservatives all over the media to ruin their image. This is why Jeremy Hunt is not doing much at the moment. The only way to fix this is to Leave the European Union and become Global.

The NHS has always been in "crisis". It's the default position in the tabloid press for a middle-of-the-road service that cocks things up occasionally and gets overloaded at times. It has always been this way and will always be this way. You could sink the odd extra billion or two in there, but it wouldn't change anything.

I'm not sure what "all public services being rejected" means. Are you accusing the Government of abolishing itself? Because I'm pretty sure that didn't happen.



A rather odd criticism given that the deficit was inherited and they have been reducing it steadily: the only way to reduce it faster and avoid the national debt growing would have been to cut more. If you're going to criticise cuts, and then criticise the Government for not cutting enough, you're leaving yourself wide open to a charge of hypocrisy.

No thank you

I don't get what everyone's problem is with Corbyn. I'm not a Corbyn fan particularly, just a Labour one, but having looked at his voting record in parliament I feel he is misjudged. He has good intentions even if his actions aren't always necessarily in the absolute best interests of the Labour Party.

Good intentions is really the bare minimum standard you should expect in a politician. If you're talking a leader of the opposition, you also need to provide leadership, a clear vision, policies that are actually evidence-based and can still connect with the country, a general level of competence and the ability to form a stable and credible alternative to the government.

I think people quite reasonably question where the "good intentions" were in his relations with Hamas and the IRA.

Or whether he even sees his policies as improving the country rather than just being part of his ideological dogma. I suspect he doesn't care a great deal about the material benefit of this country, but rather considers what is good for it is a moral adherence to what he believes in.

I'd further ask what possible good intentions he has towards the Labour Party, given that he has spent virtually his entire time in politics trying to undermine it and, since becoming leader, has shown himself prepared to run it into the ground.

While I probably have a bit of a reputation for basically being a Cameronite loyalist on here, these are actually legitimate criticisms. In 2015, the Conservatives spoke about increasing productivity and made some choices that could have had an impact (increasing the annual investment allowance hugely, for example) - but it needs to be far greater, and more joined up.

The flip-side of the coin is that a lot of jobs were indeed created. I'll happily say that lower-paid work is better than no work, and low employment is better than high productivity, but it shouldn't be an either/or question. The Government has a genuine challenge here.
