Oh bollox. Just like your hyperventilating 'abhorrence' verbiage, the same applies to your 'rich feeding off the poor'. Breathe!!!!!

Your example of Branson is one of the worst you could pick too. Those who purchase stuff from Branson are free not to you know....
Where did his millions come from? Harry Potter never waved a wand and it ended in his lap. The everyday man in the street filled his coffers over the years. Without shoppers he'dibe nowhere now. The entrepreneurialism came later once foundations had been laid by the millions people had spent in Virgin stores. That is Richard living off the poor to get him started is it not? Without their loyalty and spending he may have ended up a down and out on the streets.
picard Jesus! You really are off with the pixies (and Marxists) aren't you? You have no idea. There's not a lot of rational debate to be had with this viewpoint.

Why are you having a go at Marxists.......Didn't do Cuba any harm after the awful Batista.....(He was the leader before Castro)..

Cheap and ill informed comment.....
Oh FFS. Yeah, the Communist ideal was such a success. Marvellous. Taken the World by storm. Don't start on with this Straw Man nonsense again eh?

You just make statements like on the Trump thread....No substance to you...You aren't informed and get personal when challenged..

You don't even know what marxism is..
Blah, blah, blah, blah, Straw Man, blah, blah....
Wish I was the intellect that you are.

On that note, let's take Hero's post to heart and have a re-set.

The Lib dems are talking about legalising Cannabis.

They are having to go radical because they can't get a look in because the top 2 have such different agendas.

Not sure legalising cannabis is that radical these days. Think it's only a matter of time most likely.

Cannabis looks like a Lib dem attempted headline grab in a radical election..

Labour should have gone a little further and promised us a new car each.

Still maybe they can attract people the polls won't pick up....

Trump and Sanders attracted non voters..

Probably. They should make it absolutely clear, if so, that it's on your own head be it if it turns out your brain's FUBAR down the line.

Potentially, but most would have said the same about the same thing in the US and that's been legalised in plenty of places.

I don't care either way, but just not sure it's a particularly radical policy.

I'm not an expert on the subject...Laws are changing all the time maybe there is more than 26 states now and it's more lax.

Only drugs I ever took were for lifting weights.

Interesting that it is a Brexit election and according to voters it comes way below the NHS and the Economy on voters minds.

Not sure voters appreciate what a big decision Brexit was..

Tories look a good bet to pick up 5 seats from the SNP...Labour 1 and Lib dems 1/2 if you believe the guy on Political betting.

54 to 47 seats...Still a healthy majority but maybe the gloss is wearing off slightly....Or maybe Brexit works against them in those seats.

As for the Corbyn manifesto...#speechless.

Tim Farron says the Labour party is dead.

Coming from the guy leading a party that went from 57 seats to 8 and has been stuck around 8 percent for nearly 7 years it is an interesting observation.

Coming soon the Sunderland F.C chairman saying why Swansea are a bunch of no hopers.

Apart from the £58 billion or so.

Some good things in the labour manifesto but it is all so fanciful. Sure we'll just tax the life out of big business post EU exit and they'll just hang around.

Liberals are dropping in the polls and everyone knows they are the remain party...

Labour have gone so radical it doesn't matter what the Liberals do..

Straight choice between a once in a lifetime try for fairness at all costs or the safe hands of May...Polls are backing this up...Labour at a 3 year high on 33....Conservatives up to 48..

Liberals down 3 from 11 to 8 percent...They are down as well in the last 3 polls.

Getting squeezed.

McCluskey has just survived a leadership attempt he's distancing himself away from this mess.

Not sure the mess is over on June 8..Look for Labour's percentage...

Ukip are dead and Miliband got 30 percent last time..My guess is Corbyn will beat that and may say "Look we got more votes than last time".. Remember he is on the leadership ballot automatically if he wants to be and got 60 percent last time with 100,000 voters barred from voting last time.

New Business insider poll out.

Corbyn is a bigger vote winner than Yvette Cooper..Tony Blair and Ed Miliband.

He's having huge rallies and lots of them.....Labour have come out fighting...

Stir the S**t storm.. Give the Students an adventure....Nothing more attractive than enthusiasm....

Get something going.... MAKE THIS ELECTION INTERESTING!!!

Momentum can be a strange thing..

Problem is I'm not sure rallies of his own supporters really convince anyone else. He should roll the dice, turn up on the leaders debate. He's down 15-20 on the Tories, what does he have to lose.

Certainly more interesting that it might have been. Will need a lot more and better analyses of Labour's manifesto costs for me to go there, for all I agree with significant bits of the sentiment. Corbyn's previous stance on defence/Trident is an issue for me.

Corbyn is a bigger vote winner than Yvette Cooper..Tony Blair and Ed Miliband.

He's having huge rallies and lots of them.....Labour have come out fighting...

Stir the S**t storm.. Give the Students an adventure....Nothing more attractive than enthusiasm....

Get something going.... MAKE THIS ELECTION INTERESTING!!!

Momentum can be a strange thing..


Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

Deliberately mis-leading reporting of the Business Insider poll. It's comparing Corbyn to the toxic 2017 version of Blair, but trying to make it sound like JC is more popular than 1997 boy wonder Blair.

An INDEPENDENT review of ALL polls can be found here:

http://ukpollingreport.co.uk/

In the two most recent polls, Tories increased their lead 2 points on one (to 18) and decreased their lead by 1 point on the other (to 14).

The two before that, Survnation and ICM, Tory leads were 18 and 20 points respectively.

Taking May as a whole, Tory lead has average 17.6 and the trendline has a multiple of only 0.1 - there is absolutely d!ck all evidence of any Labour resurgence, jump, or closing of the Tory lead gap.

The 1997 Blair wins a landslide.

Anyone with sense knows that.....Took it for granted anyone with a brain would know I meant this Blair...

Moving on..

Latest poll has Labour closing to 15 points but gaining from the Lib Dems rather than the Tories.

Trawl back through the archives to find a anomolously wide polling result to compare to one most recent closer poll.

Hey I just saw a poll result and the deltas.

Imagine it was always likely to close up some nearer the time though.

No worries, wasn't aimed at you as I'm sure you know!

I put some decent money on Corbyn out performing. He's a cr@p leader but great campaigner - knows how to rally and he's momentum on his side.

Still don't think it's enough for Labour to singlehandedly overthrow a combined Tory+UKIP voter pool, especially with Scotland now long lost it seems.

It might help if you had a better quality of moderator (present company excluded, of course, with you being my second favourite poster)

Ziggler returned my username after Adam's rampage so I'll always have a special place in my heart for him. And dolphins are now my favourite out of all the aquatic and semiaquatic mammals.
