More of a Labour speech than a Conservative one. I think we'll have an actual Labour one inside the next 12 months.

I doubt it. The Conservatives will now get back in with the older voters having dropped the bits they didn't like and will now go after the younger vote. If I were May I would make the exact same promises that Corbyn made and offer to spend money on everything in the full ironic knowledge that the young will be picking up the bill. Being sensible and grown up obviously didn't work for the tories so go the whole hog and be totally irresponsible and let the kids pick up the bill. It would get my vote.......

Can you name an innovative policy that tories had in any of their manifesto? they didnt offer anything hopeful...they didnt need to be as radical as labour, but just offer something!

Their manifesto was crap and contained things that didn't need to be in there and things that should have been in there. But we now have a situation where Corbyn, Sturgeon and the LD's all want to offer bribes to get votes. Why should the Conservatives have to be the adults who then have to sort things out. I'm a great believer in letting people learn from their own mistakes, so give the people what they want, spend money on everything, load up the debt and then give it to the very generation that wanted to spend it in the first place.........

We'll need more Police, fortunately the shadow Home Secretary and the Labour leader have already insisted that we recruit another 10-20,000 officers and they'll come in handy.......
