Of course! Most people in this country are small-c conservative. Not right wing, Nazis, whatever. Just ordinary, hard working people who want what is best for the country. And it ain't socialism.

Starmer know what he's doing. In today's society, 16 to 18 year olds are classed as children until they reach 18. Why should children have the right to vote?

I have zero sympathy for criminals, and believe they know damn well what they're doing, rather than the caring-sharing approach - that probably explains the scoring.
The survey is stupid. But yeah, you're right about that.

Holly Valance is hosting a London fundraising event for Donald Trump next month, so that explains her daft views on politics :rolleyes:

I would disagree with that.
This notion that 'ordinary, hard-working people' are naturally Tories ('small-c conservative', call them what you like) is just nonsense.
Talk of 'socialism' is rather old hat, too. The modern-day Labour Party are more centre-left rather than hardcore left wing like they were back in the days of Michael Foot etc

The small c Conservative stuff refers to people who perceive the Tory party to satisfy their aspirational, im-alright-jack sentiments. People who won't loudly proclaim their allegiance but vote for them solely out of self interest rather than any vision for what best suits the country. With the inevitable consequences as seen over the last 14 years.

That's alright then because Starmer isn't offering socialism.
I wonder how you equate your statement with the ever-increasing support for Labour shown in the polls?

Poor little Lamb thought it was a cheap shot me calling her a "Tory girl" over her recent diatribes. Fair enough but I was being accurate and cheap. :)

Subs, why have you become obsessed with posters' political affiliations? Quite frankly, it's weird and none of your business. Unlike you, I refuse to join any party that would have me as a member.
