...........................................................:whistle:

I have been on Veltride for about a month. I have not seen any difference but it is early days when it comes to trying a new dutasteride supply.

I guess it is the fact that they are tablets and not gel caps. :dunno:

Should'nt that be BNP candidate finishes a fight? :whistle:

 

[The Gardener]

So, did you folks go and vote? What was the mood at the polls?

 

[Slartibartfast]

Reverential... the polling station was in a Church. It also seemed busier than recent elections.

Hung Parliament here we come. Cleggy practically ruled out doing a deal with Labour, saying that the Party with most seats (Tories) should have first dibs on forming a workable coalition. Lib Dems put in a weaker showing than expected and so a Lib/Lab pairing would still fall short of a Commons majority; guess it's Lib/Con (Con/Lib?) with only the finer details (Cabinet appointments for the yellows) to be sorted.

Slarti.

i am not particularly happy with the results, looks like a tory minority government, i am pissed off people in my area gave that eton twat an extra seat
i wish clegg had a back bone because i am pretty sure no other lib dems want to cooperate with the conservatives

i can imagine Cameron wrecking the recovery because he refuses to tax the already rich and then for us to call a vote of no confidence, well that is hopefully the best i can hope for
ohh and yayy the greens have a seat, 599 to go

 

[s.a.f]

Thank f*** Labour have got the boot. Now to try and sort out the sh*t they've created.

Ps I dont see why everyones against the fact that Cameron went to Eton?
Clegg is actually much posher than Cameron, but tries to distance himself from it.
If someones going to be running our country I for one am glad that he's got a degree in economics from the finest school in Britain. What would you prefer someone with a GCSE in art from a local secondry school?

Does it? If Cleggy won't do a deal with Cameron then the ball is in Brown's court to offer the yellows anything they want (primarily electoral reform) so he can cobble together a Lib/Lab/SNP/PC/SDLP coalition, be it on a formal or informal basis. The Tories don't have the right to govern simply by dint of being the largest Party.

You would make an awesome Chancellor. Our highest ever peace-time deficit, and you reckon we can tackle it by slapping extra tax onto what is a very small group of people. Your beloved Left has taxed and spent us into near bankruptcy, and inaction on the deficit is a bigger risk to growth than getting stuck into spending cuts - which if implemented today would take many months to filter through to departmental spending.

I also find it irritating when politicians try the "I'm an oridinary guy!" mantra to connect with the general population.

I don't want an ordinary leader, I prefer someone exceptionally extraordinary. Whatever their background.

how the f does Lembit Opik get those women? What is it about him they like? The hair? The philosophy degree? The name?



I MUST know.

i admit i wrote that pre-emptively (like before all the results are called in) but i can't see a coalition with lib dems and tory being productive because they do have too many contradicting policies, i can imagine them being undeceive and argumentative all the time

don't get me wrong i don't really support labour i just see them as the lesser of the 2 evils but you have to admit a recession is not an appropriate time to propose a tax cut that benifits the very rich

but i do oppose alot of labours solutions to the recession, i oppose the scrappage scheme, the vat cuts (if anything raise VAT, cut lower end income tax)

as far as the deflect mind you most of that was buying out the banks and as a northerner living on the breadline all i can see that has done is safeguarded shareholders, given CEOs their golden parashoots , customers being no better off (FSCS) and over 50% GDP debt breaking browns very own "fiscal rules"

My thoughts exactly, but you can blame the media for turning the election into britains got the politics factor. And the general level of the publics stupidity, we have become a nation of chavs. (No thanks of course to Labours claim as you breed policies).

Lol a couple of braindead publicity hungry bimbo's who he manages to convince that he's some major power in the UK government. Well he's not going to be able to do that anymore, he's shot himself in the foot with his antics I suspect.

I live in London and in my contituency we still have a Labour MP - thank God!

Taking to people in my area I have found alot of people saying that they want change so they are voting Conservative but what kind of change will the tories bring? Alot of these people don't understand what the tories stand for and are so gullible in thinking that they are going to bring good change to this country. The fact is that the tories only look after their own (land owners, rich businessmen etc) basically the rich and well off will benefit and rest of us peasants can go and die!

One of the main things the tories said they would do is to build NHS when they were the ones that closed so many hospitals whilst they was in government. It was Labour that brought in the NHS nearly 50 years ago and if the tories get their way they would privatise it just like they privatised everything under Thatcher/Major. They even said that Cancer patients would have to wait for treatment rather than giving them priority over patients with less life threatening illnesses. I bet if it was one Cameron's family members they would get seen to straight away.

By the way i voted Labour as they are the only party for the working class man :hump:

Dave thats a joke, Labour for the working man? How come the gap between rich and poor has increased under their term then? At least the conservatives believe in rewarding those who can be bothered to better themselves rather than people who believe in spongeing off the taxes of others.
Just look at the complete mess our economy is in after 13 yrs of them and still they try to blame everything on the conservatives. (yawn) :jackit:

 

[cuebald]

Labour hasn't been the Working Class party for thirty years.
It amazes me people still believe that old toss.

Brown, Mandelson, Balls, Milliband are all up the arses of Big Business even more so than the Tories you so despise.

How do you explain Mandelson spending some "quality time" on the boat of a Russian oligarch in exchange for a few "business deals" courtesy of UK PLC?
Or Brown selling off the UK's gold reserves at a rock bottom price, mostly to Goldman Sachs? (what are the chances of Brown getting a nice retirement job there after he's out of No 10?)

Let's not get started on Smith or Harman *shudder* As for Harman I can't believe that silly bint still has a seat. Probably due to more clowns bending over for all of New Labour's taxes (stealth and otherwise) and bizarre social engineering and still lapping up their propaganda in the process.

Like it or not, the BNP are the new working class party.

I have to disagree. I think people are better off now (working class people) than they was under the tories. Like i said before many people have short memories of the destruction the tories did to this country. I agree there is alot of spongers but there are also lots of people that want to work for a decent wage. Labour brought in the minimum wage to stop the rich from exploiting the working classes. Would you want to work for £2 an hour? Under the tories people was working there asses off for £2 an hour.

Lets wait and see what happens and i will be the first to say i told you so.
