Labour is finished, the Lisbon Treaty is next, return independance to Britain.

Typical of the Scum. Run by the Murdoch empire and always want to be seen as getting into bed with whoever seems most likely to win the next general election. The Tories are the ones who've lost it. God help us all if they get in. The NHS will die, 5 million unemployed, OAPs will lose winter fuel and TV licence allowance, end of minimum wage, end of help for the unemployed plus lots more doom and gloom ahead. I, for one, never want to see the Tories get in ever again!!

I find it funny how The Sun (and it's columnists) claims to speak for the "common man" and working-class but yet obsessively focuses on issues that the average working-class or poor person couldn't care less about such as whether the new labour leader is a puppet of the unions, fiscal policy, Clarkson's latest quip about the roads etc...

They THEN back a party that seeks to destroy and ruin the things the poor DO care about such as welfare, free bus passes, NHS, housing benefit support etc..

The Sun is not a working-class newspaper. It is a far-right, big-business supporting, war-mongering, union-bashing, hatred-spreading, bigoted, racist, homophobic, lying, two-faced rag.

WeAreTheBritish - are you a fucking child or something? arguing about politics in a youtube videos comment section, quit refeshing the page and fuck off. all your doing here is depriving a forum of a cunt.

[WeAreTheBritish]

not long to go now before the FILTH and SCUM of nu labour are wiped from the face of the earth and back into the sewers and gutters of islington........forever

[WeAreTheBritish]

stupid ignorant little fuckwit that you are, you haven'y a clue about anything, have you

[WeAreTheBritish]

as a former para officer i have no interest in a bleating bootie, you joined up so take the shit and shut the fuck up or fuck off and be a plumber

WeAreTheBritish..you are a Tory dont tell lies theres a good little boy. You are too up your own backside not to be a tory. As Tony Benn said, show me a tory and i'll show you a SELFISH SELFISH individual. Camerons yet to release a SINGLE policy..why?? because he is simply telling the public what they WANT TO HEAR. He has no substance to him whatsoever and IF he gets in i'll laugh in the faces of anyone in a year or two's time when they whinge about him and say "you voted him in...pratt"

WeAreTheBritish. I hope your wrong. As a serving Royal Marine i can remember the crap kit we had under the last tory government and im reliably informed by my father, a former Royal Marine that the kit was equally as shit under Thatcher too. The press have too much clout when it comes to elections, it has been said before people listen to the press too much especially gutter press such as the sun. The Tories will fuck the nation up just like all the tories before them. Elitist scumbags.

[coalfires]

lets wait and see IFF THE CONS GET IN they said they will cut the free bus pases and heating alowance also free tv licence for the over 75s, but like we say IF IS A big WORD IFF YOUR AUNT HAD BALLS SHE WOULD BE YOUR UNCLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
