Considering voting Tory?

Food banks

"The study found 5 key welfare policies - universal credit rollout, increases in benefit sanctions, the bedroom tax, benefits freeze and the withdrawal of disability benefits – had “sizeable and significant effects” in pushing up demand for food parcels"

Read yesterday that the Government has done another turn around and is stopping a large number Drs from abroad coming into the country and working for the NHS. They had previously agreed they could come here it would help with our shortage of Drs. but now have changed heir minds. Only briefly scanned the article.

Anne Milton..

Another Tory leaving.

They simply don’t recognise what the Tory party has become.

Scary isn’t it?

The Tories are now hard right extremists.

It is with great sadness that I am today announcing my decision to stand down as Member of Parliament for Runnymede & Weybridge at the forthcoming General Election.
My letter to the constituents I have served for 22 years:

The economy and lies

Evolve Politics

It is truly astounding that the Tories and their media lackeys managed to convince the British public that the £900Bn National Debt was a huge concern in 2010, but now that it’s almost doubled to £1.7 Trillion under the Tories, it’s apparently no longer a problem at all.

WWM2 Dozens of bullying posts from you. Are these supposed to sway people's minds? Just makes me want to do the opposite.

Sparklefizz .....yes, this sort of blanket bombing of threads with quotes from uncle tom cobbley and all has the same effect on most people, so it’s counter productive in the end.

Strange conceptof 'bullying', sparklefizz

WwMk2 is just posting information.

'concept of'

lemongrove- how could you vote for someone who intends to make your grandchildren retire at 75

there is a good reason why so many of the intelligent, middle of the road, caring Tories are leaving. They can see what is happening from the inside- and they can't stand by it or allow themselves to be part responsible for the consequences.

I can't blame them - for sure.

People like that, who are not extremists of the right wing or the left wing, and who now believe (although some of them were fooled into voting leave in 2016) that the UK will always do better and be better if we remain in the UK , these people, these good patriotic people, will vote for the Liberal Democrats.

If the Lib Dems treated the GA like a GA not a Brexit vote, and werent on the woke train (I am NOT a CisWoman or a non-male!) then they probably could do quite well this time round, but unfortunately...

What's a GA?

Sorry GE

In the 2015 general election the Tories promised to build 200,000 affordable started homes for first time buyers.

How many have been built? -NONE

So much for empty meaningless promises from the lying Tories.

A brief timeline of foodbanks:

1997 - The Trussell Trust is founded. Labour comes to power.
2004 - UK has 2 foodbanks.
2008 - Global financial crash. UK has 22 foodbanks.
2010 - Tories come to power.
2017 - UK has 2,000+ foodbanks.

Tory candidate announces that in his opinion people on benefits should be put down.

I wonder how many grans receive pension credit.

Well clearly shouldn’t be here then.

Tory Welsh Secretary has resigned after accusation of rape.

WWmk2 I believe you should double-check that.
It isn't what I've read.

WW2. Has he been accused of this terrible act because he is a Tory?. OMG. You are unbelievable.
Look forward to your response

I would like to apologise for my wording 12.10. I should have said

Tory Welsh Secretary has resigned because he was found to have lied when he said he knew nothing about Ross England’s involvement in the sabotage of a rape trial

I shall be more careful next time.

The Russians step up Tory funding

whitewave you would like to apologise for your wording.

Ok we forgive you. How about you forgive JRM when he apologised.

No, because his apology was totally insincere- clearly.
