You'll be telling us there will be queues at petrol pumps and no turkey for Christmas dinner after Brexit. It's all Project Fear!

I don’t mind the idea of a minimum wage, but can see merit in some of the arguments against it. I think more control over the use of Zero Hours contacts would be a good idea. That would put some security and stability into people’s lives, which is probably as important as actual earnings. I’ll...

Sorry, you can’t quote that, Corbyn said it, so it has to be right.

I thought that was due to Russian space men beaming mind-altering radio waves into our heads? Make your mind up.

You can not deny that this is a step in the right direction. Of course this will need to be paid for and that could well mean a rise in production costs and therefore a rise in what we pay for things. I’m happy with that and I’d pay more and some more tax to further this sort of thing. The...

Look what this bastard Tory government are doing now. OG said they would shaft working people. I guess he was right and we should have listened. The national living wage is to rise by 6.2% in what the government says is "the biggest cash increase ever". The rise is more than four times the...

Sorry, I can’t see to read this. Too much foam.

It would be more than taxation, it would be ruinous. I shall use these Tory years to "Corbyn Proof" myself as much as possible. To target second home owners shows how stupid Labour are. A second / third / fourth home is just an investment like putting money into shares, classic cars, a bank...

I agree, so why say that I am protecting my wallet, and you consider yourself not to be doing so? Why should I vote for Corbyn & Abbott steal my houses to pay for stuff, they should pledge to take it out of taxation as you suggest.

I seem to remember you asking for advice on how to "shelter" your house from care fees. I don't blame you, but the money for care has to come from somewhere and if you don't pay for it with your house, the money has to come out of the public purse, and that means less money for someone else's...

Yes, I remember Mrs Thatch doing that. It doesn't hurt quite as much as someone giving away houses that you own directly, that have been bought with money that has been earned and taxed and used to pay stamp duty, also money that has been invested to modernise houses to a high standard. The...

Out the gibberish, gobbledegook, indecision, and fag-packet-on the hoof economics that Labour were talking on the run up to the election, I deduced that they were going to nick my houses and steal my investments. Not right wing media, this is what I could pick out of their interviews / policies...

Because that is a better outcome than a Corbyn, Butler, Abbott, Wrong-Daily, etc, etc , etc government. How many more times?

I don't think people pay that much attention to newspapers these days. You only need to read the DM's comments section to see that. More recently, I have tended to listen to politicians during interviews. Diane Abbott, Dawn Butler, Rebecca Wrong-Daily, Johnny Mac, JC himself, they all must go...

Labour, the joke which keeps on delivering.
