Where's The Sense In Voting Labour?

[naomi24]

Labour intend hitting businesses and oil companies with high taxes. The result will be that the cost is passed on to the consumer meaning potential job losses and higher prices for everything, including fuel. The people least likely to be able to afford higher prices are the poor. Since concern for the poor is an on-going theme here, can anyone who is concerned for the poor but is nevertheless intending to vote Labour, rationalise their choice? Where is the sense in voting Labour?

oh, lawdy. Blair.
Donald Dewar and John Smith must be turning in their respective graves.
Noo Labour - guy was and still is obnoxious.

Donald Dewar and John Smith must be turning in their respective graves.

Yes, especially John Smith imo.

[shoota]

Not to mention Harold and Mary Wilson.

[tonyav]

Yes ^^^^

Yes have checked out nurses salaries.
I stand by what I have said.
Student nurses are as run off their feet as any other member of staff and some earn as little as £12k.
Rent, travel, childcare, etc and to use a food bank requires a ticket from an approved person.
Yes I stand by what I said 100%.
Yes I can hack the truth.

[Theland]

Are we all working towards a round of applause for Cameron, Clegg, and May? Surely not, but please lay out their approved governance.

[beso]

Naomi's "logic" suggests companies should pay no tax on profits or royalties on the minerals they extract.

[Theland]

Quite. And we ordinary mortals should be grateful for the opportunity to pull our tripes out for a minimum wage.

Go back and read your Good Book. It says the Lord will provide. Prophecy or bullsh*t?

[Theland]

He provides for me.

[emmie]

no sense in voting Labour at all..

[johnny.5]

the fewer people who vote labour then the less of a democracy we will maintain
Am I Right ?
I'm Not Wrong !

[emmie]

plenty of people will vote Labour, we are still a democracy after all..

[johnny.5]

ah yes but only the mentally retarded people apparently

[davebro]

How can you call it a democracy when 4 million UKIP voters in 2015 got just 1 MP?

[emmie]

we have an odd voting system i agree..

[emmie]

i am not a Labour voter and have already voted by post for the Tories. not ideal but better than the alternatives, who aren't mentally retarded by the way

[johnny.5]

it is a democracy as we voted for the first past the post system and not proportional representative system

[emmie]

would PRS be preferable than what we have now...

[johnny.5]

I do not think so
but if enough people did then
we should have a referendum on it

Am I Right ?
I'm Not Wrong !
