Oh Mr Cameron if only he was really that funny - oh how we would all laugh..... unfortunately this is the future of our country and its not entertainment so stop spending ridiculous amounts of money making satirical political ads. You weren't funny - callmeDave & gorgeous george show some self awareness don't extend yourself beyond your capabilities -leave the satire to the satirists they do it better than you.

He was in the govt before you know, he was a minister deeply involved in the debacle that was Black Wednesday September 15 1992- wiki wiki wa wa

Nick Clegg wants to be Pm in his own govt. How dare Labservaties say he is has over-reached himself and how dare he want to make this country a better democratic country. How dare they think they can carve up power between them ping pong back & forth. Nick Clegg is not a messiah, not a gold boy or whatever the media mincing machine tells you. He is one man... from a small family.. putting forward views... of hope for democracy

 

 

Sunday

Andy Marr asked him and he gave a direct answer given the apparent outcome of polls - we all know how right they've been as an indicator of election outcomes - Yep that’s right - the polls have been wrong- so why do we put so much emphasis on them? Don't let the party machine spin the news again about hung parliaments & coalition govt. This is just the death throws of the Labservatives.

Andy asked Nick a direct question about the polls showing a 3 ways split (taken 2 weeks before an election -didn't 'they' used to say a week is a long time in politics? how far can we go in 2 then?) and Nick gave him a direct answer – That’s refreshing coming from a politician! Perhaps he's a politician we can believe in?

Trust him, Nick don't want to prop up anyone, he wants you to vote for real change. Vote LibDem

 

 

Mr Brown goes to La La Land, on C4 news he just said that our pensions are safe in his hands. FACT In his first govt term he did more to damage our pensions than any chancellor ever past present (hope not) future. Lets not give him the chance to do it again. When You decide who to vote for May 6 consider this - One View Press - which snuffs out any other opinion so that You cannot make an informed choice for yourself. This press which has an agenda all of its own. - Two Party Politics - which has conspired to keep any chances of any other political views from being heard by the public. They did & will keep on doing this - if they can. Simply because they knew they'd be screwed and could no longer divide up power 'pass the parcel' at the behest of their own paymasters. Last years scandals in govt were a watershed for the people - we haven't forgotten even if they try to. We need change that can be delivered for the benefit of all of us, not policies that will change things in favour of the few - Three Terms in which to Act - the govt of Labour have had 13 years to make this country fairer and equal..um... and whatever else their platitudes are today. But the people there now, who want your vote were all there for years, so why didn't they do it when they had the chance? Because they were too busy doing other things. Now they want You to give them another chance to get it right this time - don't make me laugh. It's so serious, Laugh? I almost cried. - Go - to the polling station on May 6, tell everyone that you know this time they must vote. Whatever it is that they believe. This time their voice can be heard for the first time. But only If You really want our political system to change - then you have to vote and to vote LibDem

Jan Moir, sorry the bile is rising again. I left a message at 5am this morning, just checked to see whether its been put on as a comment to the article ..er..no but then they get 1000's everyday and can't put them all - could that be the only reason? Decide for yourself A here's copy i kept for my blog for your pleasure i trust Sunday, 25 April 2010 Choking on bile' from Nuneaton, Uk, posted in Daily Mail in response to Jan Moir rant Link to the page is below I don't know if they screen out some posts as I've never left a message for the Daily Fail. I shall be pleasantly surprised if my comment appears, so i've popped my thoughts here in me little blog for posterity. I can feel the bile settling down, I might actually go off and try to get some sleep - I'm now sleeplesss in Nuneaton... Well on the basis of the contempt universally slung here (steaming 'mud pie' anyone?) looks as if Jan Moir is coming out for none the above. Will that be Green, UkIP, English Dem, BNP are U indicating a Daily Mail change? Or was something in particular bringing up the bile today - can't imagine my dear. But I tell you what is bringing up My Bile Daily - how 'You' the chattering classes, media militia, general glitterati, politicos who wield the power over those in public life like a gun to the temple (i'm as p..d off with em as the next) Its the audacity of 'You' to accuse the gen pub or those eg, on twitter, who actually have souls, ethics, convictions & want to 2 do something - Us - of reducing this election to Brit Got Political Talent when infact its coverage like the scurrilous & pointless guff above & many others 'Wot does this' 'You' know who U are. Y don't U get real, stop saying We are the ones trivialising the election when in fact its cynical 'You' & U love it that way. Read more:

Democracy not DemonCRAZY

David Cameron's FIRST of many mistakes was Not To select Kenneth Clarke as his choice for Chancellor in the next govt. Or any other similar to Mr Clarke somewhat of a financial expert you know. Instead he'd like his Friend from university Mr Osborne a lawyer to take care of it. Even the paper who supports his party vocifuriously wants Ken 'as they put in 1 of their daily polls asking who their public readers would like for Chancellor' Unfortunately for them Ken is not on offer !

CallmeDave Camerwrong His biggest & probably more telling mistake was to agree to take part in 'The TV Election Debates' A disasterous political miscalculation - that is at the root of all his screaming from the election bus "don't vote for us & it will be a disaster because of... this or that... which has became the rallying call of his campaign now. Tory thru & thru always has something or someone else to blame for the disaster afflicting them.

The Real Disaster for Him & the Conservative party. The free 3 party discussion of 'The election Debates' allowed for the first time Ever the opportunity for the wider general public to be exposed to the genuine alternative choice of Nick Clegg, Vince Cable et al of the Liberal Democrats What was he thinking...perhaps... he wasn't an affliction which appears to dog him through-tout this election process. Or was He over confident... arrogant even... certainly believing his own hype...& propaganda put out by his friendly media... thought the public too stupid to see thru his thinly disguised veneer?

Maybe he'd done a deal which He thought bought him the keys to No10? The decision is Yours...Why do you think he did it? But more importantly what should we make of these decisions? What do they tell us about the Man himself? For me it shows he lacks the good, sound, clear judgement needed for high office. If under a govt i had not voted for, I would still want to know that they would do good in office as whomever is in power, whether u support them or not, they do govern and affect Your life in very dramatic ways.

In times past perhaps a person might have said to me I'd rather have Dave look what Gordon has done to us, or of another political bent they might have said I'd rather have Gordon Gawd help us what would Dave do to us. Today a new day has arrived, we can really say "I elect none of the above". We have a real a choice emerging from the smoke & mirrors of election-sneering. Liberal Democrats should form the next government on their own on a platform for real change The only people obsessed by getting a hung parliament and/or coalition government are the Labservatives and their screaming friends alike in the media mincing machine.

Don't let them steal your vote. We need Democracy in this country Not DemoCRAZY. Which will mean everyone to have a free fair vote in which every vote carries the same value as every other. In which everyone’s voice whichever colour has a chance to be heard, considered, rejected or agreed with - for ever, for all time. At least in the future if we have a criticism of our govt of the time, we may actually be commenting on issues that matter to us the people & our daily lives rather than the media merry-go-round which serves only to put undue power into the hands of friends who could have gone to school with the very people in govt they are propping up or slagging off.

Its all old school Tie, don't listen to smear and innuendo - its all part of the scandal that wishes to Continue to steal our Democracy, Our Choice, Our voice as a people. We the people stand up for those being bullied, we stand up for the right ideals of being a decent human being in a mad bad world. Why when it comes to our politics do we let them do this to us? If You want change on May 6 you are going to have to act positively. You want change then you are going to have to vote for it not just support it from the comfort of your own nest. My friends We are certainly living in interesting times! Vote for Nick Clegg... Vote For Vince Cable... Vote for their other clever & interesting friends you haven't yet heard of... Vote for their practical, sensible, relevant, sustainable & so very much needed policies Vote Lib Dem on May 6 you know it makes sense

A letter to Tracy

Hi Tracy
Here's my blog address below as discussed
Wow to think aged 39 and joining the net revolution, you may have heard about the amber revolution (i haven't just joined that I've been a part of that for 20 years!).

Please have a look at my blog and let me know what u think, also i won't be spamming all the stuff I'm getting at the moment but just let me know if you want forwards by email etc iIll be happy to oblige.
I'm on twitter now, signed up from my pc great!! ....jimmibabe... why not follow me yourself from your pc completely free of charge etc - In addition to my own stuff i am retweeting great stuff from other folks, mostly extremely funny, pithy, exciting stuff.  Do you know i would not be doing all this if the tory attack dogs had not been set on nick clegg and the libdems last week which they only did because they are cacking themselves!

"In 2005 1 in 4 people voted Lib Dem they got 62 seats (their most ever) and if in 2010 1 in 3 voted for them they would have a massive majority govt, that is how crazy our system is its completely unrepresentative, Robert Mugabe would be proud”

I believe that every persons vote in this country should count the same as anyone else's  in 2005 it took 27.000 votes to elect a labour mp, 37,000 to elect Conservative mp and 96,000 votes to elect a Lib Dem MP. That's democracy in the uk. 

A vote should be given freely on May 6, in an open free election fight, where media moguls, big business or any other special interest groups are not able to apply undue pressure or express bias, that your vote isn't scare-mongered from you, or blackmailed or cajoled, or conned by gerrymandered polls fixed by friends of particular parties. Mostly we don't even know its happening to us, its cleverly done for that purpose. All true and the evidence is right there on the net You tube, face book, twitter and other places, not to mention direct on all the newspaper sites and blogs. But also think back yourself to the experience of tories last in govt and back to what the last 13 years have been, your own experience will inform you

”First week of the election campaign the funds given £1.5 million to Conservative, £750,00 to labour and £20k to Lib Dems.

Lib Dem votes in 2005 were just a couple of million less than the other 2 parties yet Lib dems had a fraction of the seats. Labour and Conservatives get money from their backers who expect something in return.

Whereas Lib Dems are a party of people with none of the bully boy backers and yet Lib Dems are still beating them even though they are throwing everything at them.

“After the first leaders debate a poll was taken: 49% of people said they WOULD vote Lib Dem if they thought Lib Dems could win.”

The blanket coverage (Murdoch owned or controlled Sky, Telegraph, The Mail, The sun, News of the world, Sunday Mail, The express, Fox news) that is given to whichever of the big old parties is chosen by The One Man who isn't a British citizen, doesn't pay tax here, has billions in the bank and will not be affected by the policies of the govt elected. He only cares which party will deliver him what he wants - to break up the bbc, get rid of ofcom so that he can say what he wants about who he wants with impunity and for other reasons he wants Dave Cam in.
You as a citizen of this country, should vote and concern yourself with these thoughts…… Know who you are voting for and why. Considering: which govt would be right for yourself, your job, family, friends, community and country. And as I'm a Lib Dem I accept it if you don't vote like me just so long as it is an entirely free election and a level playing field. It hasn't been for so long and that has  been pretty much hidden from the wider public.

The Independent newspaper has been attacked physically by James Murdoch assaulting the editor by storming their office in person last Wednesday and threatening the paper with the power of Murdoch evil empire for daring to say "Murdoch won't decide who runs the next govt - You will" in 1 of its adverts in its own paper. How dare they !
Don't believe the propaganda, go find out for yourself, only couple of minutes or so will convince you to vote for whomever you want. Don't just don't vote the same way because that's how you vote, there has to be a better reason than that.

Albert Einstein Insanity is: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

I'm fed up and want change, real change not the same old story but with a different colour tag on it. I was extremely happy and hopeful when labour got in 1997 as the Tory govt had been so atrocious throughout my childhood, I'm a Thatcher child and I don't want any of your kids to grow up with that again. Labour have dismayed me and I have no confidence in them in future. That is why I'm so certain that Lib Dem really are what we need in this country vote nick clegg get vince cable, vote Call Me Dave Cameron and you get Murdoch. Oh god we do not need that disaster.  Sorry its been so long…. `my email' and that for too long our elections are all but fixed - its just that my blood is absolutely boiling!

Conspiracy is a two nag lollop

[comment left on the Indy website, a bit long so may not be displayed -copied here for my posterity!]

I am no financial expert, just ordinary Jo Blogs. But, I'm intelligent enough to understand when a complicated economic issue/s explained coherently. I even understood what the trans-Atlantic sub prime bubble & CDO's  and why it caused our world wide crisis - because it was explained well. I informed myself, which requires less idleness and more interest & engagement in what our govt & prospective govts are telling us.
I find Vince Cable and John Thurso a breath of fresh air, whatever the merits of their policies they explain them well and they certainly seem well thought out. I am confident in them stewarding our economy thru very stormy weathers ahead.
MY POINT I really wish to  make here is - if there is a conspiracy of silence on the state of our fiscal situation then 'that' is most definitely a 'two nag lollop', even if the election has become genuine 3 party battle-royal. Alan Budd I seem to remember (hope that's factual) certainly a financial adviser worked for browns govt until late last year before decamping to conservatives where he prepared a full report for them akin to what the govt had presumably- we don't know. When asked Cameron would not make it public. So these 2 party’s who have the full information before them - the whole horror of situation and where the cuts will need to come from or indeed where are the choices for cuts to be made. It is Labour and Conservative who have kept it from us the public. Their manifestos roundly condemned by IFS. The party who was given no such help and with no deep pocketed backers to buy them the influence, they had 2 put their own fiscal policy & analysis together from the sketchy financial info that’s allowed to escape from the brown apparatchik and other usual sources- apparently doing rather well. It is they Lib Dems who put in a costed priority manifesto - IFS said it added up - and in analysing all the parties manifesto proposals, Its Vince ahead, Darling following behind and Osborne languishing some £20billion behind Vince. The IFS chap said they are the best of a bad bunch - rather swingeing itself!
In addition 'rope a dope Gordon' who likes to show You one hand whilst hiding his real actions in t'other  decided not 2 have a spending review B4 an election. Criminal I believe.
I'm also a bit of a housebound geek who dips in and out of -parliament etc, I have a long memory - I do remember Vince taking the govt/ opposition to task on the iniquities of our system at that time and to what it could lead to, and the universal derision he met from them. I remember even if 'Labservative' as they've called online in chat & tweets, have deleted cassandra warnings from their collective memory banks.
No one could have known the depth of the financial crisis to come. Just as no one could have known the depth of the criminal stupidity of the trans-atlantic bwankers. I know Vince was not missing in action then, unlike the other two. I don't trust the other two, I’ve seen how they run the govt & opposition scrutiny of govt and i didn't like what i saw. Over successive govt’s they've mucked up our country between them.
I trust team Liberal Democrats and for that reason I joined the party last week, sending them what little money I could afford towards their remaining campaign. I hope that they are returned as a majority govt. Then we will get to see what mature (grown up) modern, progressive, enlightened and equal governance looks like. I wonder whether some of the 'steaming mud' slinging which has characterised the frankly shameful election campaigns of Labservative will stick to libdems and truly deliver a hung parliament - sadly. I say shameful in view of especially the financial crises of last few years the expenses scandal last year and the frankly epic economic black hole into which the country is being sucked. I wonder why any of them want to win - clearly power has an attraction all of its own despite the circumstances.

Letter to sent in frustration to This Morning explaining why I’m voting Lib Dem

 

Via twitter

@itvthismorning Dear Phil n Holly, big fan, as home by necesity of long term illneess. I just needed to get something off my chest and i hope you don't mind me telling you, I've included a little pic which really did make me smile, something i think we could all do with at the moment
I Don't know if you'll be discussing the financial situation today as per todays papers election etc - , i couldn't see on your twitter feed. Too shy to call. I'm daily at home digesting the election fever all day long - However just wanted to make a point Both Labour and Conservatives have had the benefit of alan Budd, he told govt where future cuts will come from. Before he decamped to conservatives preparing a report for them. They both know the full fiscal picture and where the future cuts will be but they will not make it public or even hint. Most dishonest I feel. mr Brown could have called a spending review b4 election but no, slight of hand he has shown often in the past regarding budget etc. they both seeking to dissemble - a new word i found yesterday which sums it right up
Poor old Lib Dems not been told anything. At least publicly Cons have not either been told by govt - but they have Mr Budd) Despite this Lib Dem produced a costed manifesto of priority pledges and a full manifesto laid our for the next 5/6 years, yet to be costed based on the 'future finances' of course. I read all the manifestos couple weeks ago, for myself and found out about Budd earlier this year. Anyway was still undecided until i saw LibDem on 1st debate and knowing what i knew - & nick cleggs gr8 debut, i decided that only Libdem can sort it out. they have vince cable and john thurso - both excellent experts to deal with ec. & bus., without sorting that out no party can deliver any of their pledges whether costed/declared or not.
I have utterly no confidence in either of the other 2 to do anything other muck up the country at a time when we need clear leadership and sound judgement. By dint of both their actions, words and deeds over last 5 years neither brown or cameron can be trusted - i believe.
Finally - that although libdem had a 36/37billion, black hole by necessity of the financial situation we are in - yesterday IFS said that they had the most credibitable figures and their figs do add up.
i'm frustrated that this is not being adequately reflected on the news etc. totally frustrated by the election coverage as all parties & policies have not been given scrutiny on the issues that we in the country are worried about. As i am housebound am able to watch the speech that nick clegg gave to RGN, he was universally appluaded the audience actually hung on his every word and responded to his policies very positvely - he had a standing ovation at end. To me the policies seems sensible but then i'm not a nurse - all i know is they thought libdem policies made sense. When they voxpopped nurses leavin, on the hoof 1 nurse stopped said " i have been a labour supporter since age 16 and worked in nhs for last 15 years. nicks policies if he is allowed to implement them would make the nhs a better service. But that was not at all the impression all the news services put forward last night i actually despair of what is going to happen to us and our country if we don't get the right team in to lead our country. i have so much confidence in them that i have this week joined the party and made a donation of £40 even tho i only get £100 sick benefits pw. because i know that desperately underfunded, they had couple of % to spend on electionering of conservaties have - just terrible. many thanks - sorry for the rant and typing!! ,iss lorraine ash, nuneaton

Put your Money where Your mouth is! No longer I but We

tweeted this one on twitpics - get you..I’m now a fully paid up member of the electric revolution - #leadersdebate #ge2010 #vote #ukeletion #cleggmania

Put your money where your mouth is, means business. Not a soft vote, this is real change.

I joined and paid a donation as much as i could afford. Got my card yesterday, this pic courtesy of a pal (thanx) as my phone failed to load my jpg (or tool owner passing blame) On reverse of card very interesting preamble to the constitution of the party..

"The Liberal Democrats exist to build and safeguard a fair, free and open society, in which we seek to balance the fundamental values of liberty, equality and community in which no-one shall be enslaved by poverty, ignorance or conformity"

“…salus populi suprema lex esto”  Cicero

(let the welfare of the people be the final law)

No wonder the Political ping pong pass the parcel Parties  sought to keep LibDem unknown to public at large - 'They got nothing' they’re toast. Complacency is not a town we're going to in this election campaign. Dig 4 Victory!

Wednesday Mornin' gorgeous sunny- again – could it be Nick Cleggs fault?

Been a real twitter maniac since i joined 7 days ago as a response to the commencement of hostilities in the war for our souls i was going to say but its more shallow than that. “Just give us yer f*****g votes” appears to be the gist of it.The war being marshalled by Rupert Murdoch’s Newscorp & the LibDem & Nick Clegg. I’m still bloody raging – they went a bit quiet for a day or so but they’ve redoubled today. The Daily Mail really is a scurrilous rag.

Anyway since last Thursday I’ve had so many viruses and hacking on my pc & accounts in last few days, stuff being removed rearranged, crashing etc - just a real pain & unlucky? only started after I left a great number of satirical & rude posts anti Tory n Murdoch- but that’s a bit paranoid? anyway i bought a new super duper upgrade – just pissed off really, the amount of info lost during these attacks have been especially galling for me as it takes such a long time to write & compose due to my illness. But what i do have is lot of time and cleggmania to watch. Being wrapped up in election fever I didn’t want anymore time or for that matter have any more nosey parkers rifling thru me knickers etc!

I haven’t really gone into policy here because there are some great sites with all the info you need (if anyone else is reading this - that is!) I just wanted to express my feelings about why we need a Lib Dem majority govt and of course my musings and expressions of frustration or dismay about everything election fevery. Given The Fail Daily onslaught today i do hope the Lib Dem rip CONnservatives limb from limb next week, for they deserve it. It’s all being orchestrated from Tory boy HQ & its scurrilous quote of the day

“odi profanum vulgus et arceo” ..Horace (I loathe and shun the profane rabble!)

Oh well we’ll have the last laugh – even sky yesterday agrees !
