lol lol lol you call me a cockernee? Says the person who wouldn't pay for a thing he doesn't use because all he cares about his himself and has betrayed his working class roots and thinks he's better than everyone else.

The majority of people in the UK do not use the railway. Nationalising it just means that the majority, who do not use it, now have to pay for it. Whether prices or services go up or down, why should people be forced to pay for something they do not use ?.......

Sorry but I have to disagree.

Nationalising the railway, particularly over time by simply not putting franchises back out to tender when they expire, is a good idea.

The privatisation of the railways was never going to work because it was based on the fallacy that different franchises would provide competition for each other, which obviously they can't. The real competition for a decent railway system is a decent road system - if you lack one then there is no pressure / competition for the other.

Improving the railway would serve the purpose of encouraging more people out of their cars, which in turn would also improve the road network by simply removing some of the traffic... so the road system becomes more attractive, making it competition for the rail network, ad infinitum.

I like this policy. It's a good policy. The implementation of it over time is a good idea too.

Will be interesting to see if the tory manifesto is scrutinised as much when it is published.

Fair question, that.

Have you paid that money back yet.....

Have you paid that money back yet.....

No because I don't need to because of the rules set down in the agreement I signed. And What? I didn't make up the rules.

Notice you didn't deny what else I said. Guess I hit the nail on the head eh.

Fantastic article here in response to the Everton supporters who mindlessly drone on that their policies are "fully costed" as if that actually means something. The sums don't even come remotely close to adding up. And they don't even care. Any Everton supporter thinking this is somehow a good manifesto should take just 5 mins out of their time to read this.

Fixed.

Why is he a cockernee who believes that scousers who don't vote Labour can't support Everton as well as this cheeky chappie.....

Not all bigots are tories, but all tories are bigots.

If he had any sense yes.

No mate, couldn't be further from the truth. I was furious when Miliband got shoehorned in by the unions and more so when Corbyn (I'm just voting for him for a laugh) took over........
