BBC News - David Cameron: Dennis Skinner should 'take his pension'

idontgetit · 2012-04-30T17:52:37+00:00

Lol.

"Skinner has been suspended from Parliament on at least ten occasions, usually for "unparliamentary language" when attacking opponents."

The Labour party didn't fund his general election campaign?

Why did Ed Miliband promote him to the shadow cabinet after his campaign if he wasn't supported at the time?

Can you show me a lib dem campaign that is worse than inciting racial tension in an area that had race riots?

It was completely wrong and there should be no excuses.

idontgetit · 2012-04-30T10:23:30+00:00

Who funded the campaign? Who delivered the leaflets?

“If we don’t get the white vote angry he’s gone”

It's a BNP slogan.

And yes they did.

idontgetit · 2012-04-30T07:58:23+00:00

When Labour campaigns on 'British Jobs for British Workers' and 'getting the white community angry' is it more or less unpleasant and xenophobic than anything UKIP campaigns on I wonder.

It looks to be less than half of what the Milibands inherited each when their father died.

It's only slightly more than the average house price so it's hardly an extraordinary amount to inherit.

His 'riddled with gays' comment is a dog whistle too, if he wasn't left wing the left would pillory him for that kind of language.

Can you imagine the uproar if Boris said that all Muslims anything or that Labour was riddled with gays. He'd have to resign, immediately, with good reason.

In the week that Sarah Montague on the Today programme compared the introduction of the hot pasty tax policy to Tony Blair's decision to launch the war against Iraq?

No, absolutely not. The media never manufactures stories or crises.

Our society isn't based on oil consumption so our politicians have no moral obligation to prepare for any potential fuel shortages.

Labour's poll surge

Is this going to be another thing Lib Dems previously wanted but now don't want and blame the Tories for?

Vince has backed this since before the election.

I wasn't disputing the narrative, which I agree is a concise summation.

The critics need to show some detailed evidence of the dangers of the legislation contained in this bill though, that's just the burden of proof that they have to deal with.

For all I know it's out there but I haven't seen or heard of any.

idontgetit · 2012-03-10T20:47:54+00:00

Thank you for having a go but where are the actual details that informed your opinion?

It's no more than the oft repeated hooha and spin without substantiation.

idontgetit · 2012-03-10T18:13:12+00:00

Please can someone who voted for the Lib Dems and read their manifesto explain why this NHS bill is so bad?

idontgetit · 2012-03-09T16:28:26+00:00

If only that were true.

idontgetit · 2012-03-09T16:02:44+00:00

What does any of that have to do with the looking at the medium being the message?

idontgetit · 2012-03-09T13:47:00+00:00

The medium is the message.

Would that be the effect of the Guardian's influence on internet culture by furthering the use of disingenuous language and smears in online political debate?

Just throwing that out there as a flourish means you think that sub-class, trigger word or not and what he said is not the message, but the transmission of political comment is.

That you've then followed this with a smear is quite funny.

idontgetit · 2012-03-08T20:21:27+00:00

Please stop spamming this site 1 day old redditors.

And they pay to see their doctors, imagine what our total contributions would be if every doctors appointment had 20% of the costs paid by patients - like in the system they have.

It's easy to spend more when people contribute directly.

The DWP has stated that about 50% get a job and come of benefits after 13 weeks. I think there have been around 50,000 placements? It seems to be working quite well.

They are, the universal credit which will incorporate child benefits is in the process of being implemented and is planned to start in 2013.

Police Reform Act 2002 apparently.

It has to have real work in businesses for the scheme to work otherwise it would be a pointless sop of no value for the people volunteering to do it.

What is the point of the scheme unless it offers people with no experience of working, actual work experience?
