The death tax was debated on radio LBC this am early - the same phone in was convincing that people would vote Brexit - the so called death tax is resonating with life long tory voters - "I will burn my house down before the Tories use it for my care attitude"
The fuel allowance is only going to those on pension credit which has been butchered cut back, they are also scored that their bus passes will go - so in effect May has gambled big here Labour this am seemed attractive to vote for the Corbyn factor had gone - I can see the gap in the polls narrowing on such a poor manifesto by May -
Has she done this because she knows the EU problem is that vast she will fall on her backside?
stealing school meals for Juniors attacking the old has she gone mad???????
We really have two opposites here one with promises of Utopia under Corbyn with fantasy costings - or the nasty party under May with no costings in her manifesto ?????
I now feel it will be a hung parliment!
I doubt the landslide that was predicted has gone, if it was ever there!

Absolutely mate. But give me a vision of utopia rather than what May's offering any day!

I listen to that programme every morning what a swing to Labour this am - before it was all about how good May would do the Brexit negotiations now with the death tax it's a complete change around !
The calls came in from all over the country by the way!

Just you wait til they see what Big Nev thinks about it all. It'll be a Labour landslide!
 
It's funny really isn't it? We all have aspirations with regards to public service expenditure, yet we don't want to pay for it ourselves, but rather AN Other do so instead. Whether it's the (wealthy) elderly not wanting to pay for their care, the (wealthy) parents for their childrens lunches, the (wealthy) graduates for their education, or indeed the middle classes for public services in general.
 

yours then, I assume ; )

as for me, I'm obviously entirely rational and detached, considering all voices equally and dispassionately high above the emotional, partisan fray (as everyone who reads The Economist imagines themselves to be)

in jest ; )

I don't think its that at all; if anything its people recognizing that we are being asked to pay more in order to receive a worse service by people who will financially benefit from it all.
