Re: Election 2015 – All the Manifestos

This is all they are good for, jabbering on about,a balanced plan. Not just having a pop at the clone clowns they are all the same.
This is worth a couple of minutes of your time, and a share: Tory Chancellor can't answer the question. 18 times.

Re: Election 2015 – All the Manifestos

Well we had a right display on TV last night! Why are they all saying that the best way to solve the problems with the NHS is simply to throw money at it?
Just over 50% of people employed by the NHS are non-clinical and most have ‘bullet proof’ contracts which means hefty final salary pensions and it would cost the NHS a fortune to get rid of them even if they are doing a lousy job. So many complaints by patients are down to negligence, the abrupt and rude attitude of staff and dirt. Since when did attention to detail, polite consideration and cleanliness cost a fortune? The cleaning staff are there but the service is contracted out so no one is on hand to point out that they are doing a ‘half a**ed’ job. The catering is also contracted out and the swill being served is exactly the sort of high sodium rubbish the nutritionists say is responsible for many of our ailments. Many of the medical staff speak to the patients as though they were irritants and that is if they speak to them at all!
Oh there are some dedicated clinicians, surgeons, doctors and nurses employed by the NHS but they are being driven out by bullies and incompetent management – all of them earning a lot more than those who actually treat the patients. If they are keen and conscientious they wind up doing all the work while others breast feed the counter at the nurses’ station or chatter by the water cooler.
Money is being pumped into the NHS but it is being wasted and the whole system is badly managed by morons with absolutely no medical knowledge and certainly no idea how to treat the most vulnerable.

Re: Election 2015 – All the Manifestos

Beer, Baccy and Crumpet Party

British Unicorn Party,

Church of the Militant Elvis Muhahahahahaha ( its real i kid you not )

Church of the Militant Elvis Party

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The Church of the Militant Elvis Party is a political party in the United Kingdom. The leader of the party is David Bishop who also goes by the nickname of Lord Biro/Bus-pass Elvis. The party has 6 registered campaign groups: 'Bus-pass Elvis Party', 'Elvis Defence League', 'Elvis turns Green Party', 'Grumpy old Elvis Party', 'Militant Elvis Anti-Tesco Popular Front' (MEAT-PF) and the 'Elvis and the Yeti Himalayan Preservation Party' as well as 'Militant Elvis Anti-HS2'.


The party is concerned with the depletion of the Amazon rainforest, climate change, the power of Tesco on the British high street and the power of large corporations. A book on Elvis noted that "an obviously ironic attitude toward Elvis is used in the service of rather serious anti-imperialist political objectives".^[1] It deregistered in December 2008,^[2] but re-registered in March 2010^[3] and stood in the 2010 general election in Kettering,^[4] gaining 112 votes.^[5]

Absolutely spot on, I do believe there are still caring nurses and they would be a lot more caring if they were left to nurse.
Nurse definition, a person formally educated and trained in the care of the sick or infirm.
They are more like pen pushing,jobsworth robots now, a great pity imho

Re: Election 2015 – All the Manifestos

Right to Buy, your views please.

I can't knock it, my mum and dad bought theirs although in all honesty paid for it 3 times over in the amount of rent over the years they paid.
I did it too because I believed it was a good step. For lots it wasn't and I think many will come unstuck as before when mortgage rates went up. Many were led to believe it was affordable and probably was until things went up and I do believe many lost there homes.
It is supposed to be that housing associations will rebuild affordable homes from the profits, the last time in fact only one new house was built for every ten sold, so no solution for the housing shortage imho.
Why don't the government just loan the housing associations money to build new houses and then when they are built allow them to sell the same amount of houses they have built and then repay the loan. This would then ensure one for one build at the very least instead of creating another bubble and only the rich and finance cos making money before it bursts.

Re: Election 2015 – All the Manifestos

I think Right to Buy being extended to Housing Associations is a good idea. (if that helps)

Me too as long as they do rebuild the same or more affordable homes

Re: Election 2015 – All the Manifestos

RTB ,

1. only after 10 years rent
2. Can not sell for 10 year afterword
3. Have to live there for 3 years and not rent it out.

I also feel tghey should concentrate on accommodation for the under 25s at affordable rates, to allow them to get on the market. Do one bed flats for 15k, that are mortgageable, to allow under25s to get on the ladder.

I was horrifed when h heared 2 face ( clegg ) talking about giving extra rent assistance in some areas. Did he studied economics on the effin moon

Re: Election 2015 – All the Manifestos

Personally I think there's too many empty houses already, couldn't they maybe renovate the ones they have? And maybe councils/HAs buy up (at a reduced rate) those empty properties in their area too?

[mystery1]

Re: Election 2015 – All the Manifestos

The right to buy has created good wealth for some but has devastated council housing stocks to the point that people are getting pregnant because it's the only way to get a council house (affordable housing).

Another dreadful Thatcher beatdown on societies poorer people. It was rotten then and is rotten now.
