I might vote Tory but that doesn't make me a bad person

I could watch Ed Miliband for hours (well, minutes)
He fascinates me, his expressions, the way he speaks.
More so than DC.

Day6 I can empathise, however I was lucky enough to have DH who was lucky enough to be able to carry on working until nearly 70. Just when I thought I would be able to go back to work I was ill again.
At least incapacity benefit paid my stamp towards my pension although it was a pittance.

I think image has always been a factor with how people perceive politicians.
Michael Foot suffered badly though he was very sincere, much like Ed.
Back to kitty's op. DH voted Conservative, I voted Labour......it makes for an interesting household.

My post was in reply to GrannyTwice, jobook1, but this thread is getting so muddled I don't suppose it matters much!

I know. Mind you, I shouldn't spar with grannies. They could be 90 odd and frail. I just think that some people, when filling in their personal profile, could not put GSOH. Not you, of course!

Most GNs probably think they have a wonderful SOH, but when they actually start posting on here PC-ness strikes ( it's catching!) and suddenly they're part of the po-faced brigade!

OMG Someone agrees with me XXX
Most of what I say is tongue in cheek. But then I am a bit of a wicked stirer and know where the reactionary riposte will come from on GN.! What larks!

Yes! Are you me? Are we sock puppets? (see the Pointless thread).

So you are both stirrers?

Ana. Wow. Me or them? I do wonder about some people who loudly bang a drum.

You ask a lot of questions Soontobe sure you're not a journo?

I think you're something of a stirrer yourself, soontobe.

Soontobe. You need to ask those who know me. I rather like a ruck! Can I say, I like your posts. You seem a very reasonable person.

You've got to be kidding!

(not sure what you meant by your post, jo1book, it was just a joke about our views being similar - the sock puppets thing was just an aside if you cared to follow it up, that's all)

I think there are Political Activists on GN. Probably put in place. Now that.s a thought.

I've changed my mind. I think you two have much more in common!

x post. Replying to rosearered.

Even if I was[which I am not] Ana, and even if you thought that, that should not mean that anyone does that.

Yes, sorry Ana, reading too much into something.

I do love a good conspiracy theory though...got any more?

soontobe, that post made no sense to me. At all.

Speaking as someone of 90+ with no SOH I am taken aback with your posts and sense of frivolity!!

We're doomed, I tell you, doomed!

I grew up in a staunch labour trade unionist/staunch conservative household. It was interesting to say the least!

At, at, at.
Oh dear, grammar!

political activists on several parties, jo1book? hmm.
Well, if there is, I think at least one side backfired.

I agree, rose - we're doomed if we do and we're doomed if we don't...

Ana. Even if you think I am a stirrer[which I am not], does not make it ok for someone else to do stirring behaviour.
