hey guys needed a timeout from the site to recharge the batteries .

right even with the election last night its pretty clear the uk inner cities in particular will go off like a firecracker, this will be like early thatcherisim and it ain't going to be pretty, everyone assumes the new anti social /terrorism laws was for our safety. it was for what is going to happen in the next few years once more cuts on the vulnerable and you will have to pay to go to your local nhs hospital. I think david icke mentioned a few years ago 2016 is going to be the year where everything comes to a head and mark my words this is coming.

i voted labour yesterday just to get the tories out. I am not naive to think they were going to save us, they were just a band aid on a gaping wound, one thing really stands out for me, milliband had the chance to join forces with another left wing party the snp but he turned his back on it knowing the nhs would no longer be free in tory hands. to me that shows how far removed new labour is from its roots.

i could go on and say how can a government so hated get into power again with a bigger win than 5 years ago? i definitely think the Scottish independence vote was rigged and to a certain point I think this was.

sorry for such a gloomy post but I am pretty pissed off today, adios amigos.

I'm also back after a break.

Labour needs to do a lot of soul searching, outside of the inner cities they got trounced and this is because they ignore the core vote or arrogantly assumed they would always vote labour, as Scotland showed it backfired massively.

Down here, in a fairly rural area, i've heard a lot people say they voted Tory because they feared a Labour/ SNP government and that they get more out of the Tories.

Alan Johnson's comments are spot on.

This time Labour have to choose the right leader, Ed was never right and the time I heard him say we most do more for the middle class I knew how it was going to go.

The only consolation was Farage didn't win and Galloway was dumped out.

i was going to vote green but the heart ruled the head ,i agree labour has gone more right wing since blair was in power and there is no great difference between them and the tories , I know a lot of people chose not to vote for many reasons ,i did write a post a few years ago that things have to get a lot worse before you will see real change ,in a funny way this could be that time ,the poorest will get hammered again by cuts but make no mistake this is going to hit middle classes in a big way and once that dawns on people that emigration or benefits cheats are not the problem then the worm will turn .
