"the Lib/Dems lost it when Clegg sold his soul to the tories for a few minutes in power."

And Labour 'lost it' when they wasted 13 years in power! Give me one good reason why I should vote Labour?

And I experience no qualms whatsoever about insulting Labour and Labour supporters. That's all they deserve! 13 years they had to build a truly progressive democracy - and look at the mess they made!

Does the list need repeating?

- A greater social divide that even under the Torys.

- Massive house price inflation such that young people can no longer afford a house.

- A massive assault on our civil liberties.

- Failure to regulate the banks and Big Business.

- Everything enveloped in a grossly over-complicated and pointless 'box ticking' bureaucracy.

- A complete disregard for the environment - which suffered badly as a result.

- The scandal of MP's expenses which Labour allowed to happen under its nose.

- An illegal war in Iraq which led to thousands of innocent lives being lost.

Need I go on?

My dear old Dad, who was a sheet-metal worker, not a teacher, university lecturer or social worker living in a big , expensive house, like many Labour supporters round here, always believed that Labour was a bunch of hypocritical shits. And to think I used to argue with him - how right he was!

"Shimrod, you lost the battle when you sank to using personal insults"

I have to confess, Dave, that I find it extremely amusing to witness someone in such a state of advanced apoplexy that they can't construct a coherent statement ;)

"I repeat, you stupid moron! "


A very mature 'argument' Shimrod - the words "pot", "kettle" and "black" spring to mind. As usual, personal abuse takes precedence in your bizarre form of logic. Actually, I have never voted Labour in my life - just pleased that the electorate of Barnsley have demonstrated the disgust with the LibDems that so many people feel and relegated them from number two at the last election to the shadowlands with the rest of the unelectables.

Shimrod, you lost the battle when you sank to using personal insults, face facts , the Lib/Dems lost it when Clegg sold his soul to the tories for a few minutes in power.

"I will do all I can to make sure Liberals never get ANY power again.
Quack!"

Why aren't you working to make sure the Tories never get ANY power again, G the D?

I for one would have voted for a proportional representation system that kept decision making matched to the will of the people. As it is, he has made sure that almost all decisions will be dictated by the people who have the money. I will do all I can to make sure Liberals never get ANY power again.

I think that's a mistake, Geoff. I'm far from happy with the LibDems and can understand your feelings but I still think proportional representation although what's on offer is only part way there) would be an improvement.

"Oh, didums, Shimrod!"

A very mature 'argument', 'leveller' - and typical of the contemporary, morally bankrupt Labour party.

And shouldn't that be "la, la, la, la etc." with eyes tight shut and fingers in ears:

"I've always voted Labour and I always will even if they start murdering babies ... Oh look, they are murdering babies! Shut eyes, finger in ears and la, la, la, la, la etc., etc."

I repeat, you stupid moron!

It really is a bit of a bugger, Who does one vote for now? Full on Tory? Tory Lite? or Tory wishy-washy?
(or the lunatic fringe...BNP/UKIP)
At least the "Loony" party admit who they are! Honest prospective politicians! Might as well vote for them.

I'm not sure what to think. I was glad to finally see the back of the last lot who went under the name of Labour and had hopes for the LibDems who seem to have sold out...

I'm not sure who I'd vote for now.

Nick Clegg destroyed the Lib Dems when he climbed into bed with Cameron. He had the chance to change British Politics by standing as a balancing force for unified opinions but instead grabbed the opportunity for personal power. If he had stood with the rest of the country, I for one would have voted for a proportional representation system that kept decision making matched to the will of the people. As it is, he has made sure that almost all decisions will be dictated by the people who have the money. I will do all I can to make sure Liberals never get ANY power again.
Quack!
GtD.

"I despair - this country deserves everything it gets!"

And what it will get, if Labour succeeds in its mission to destroy the LibDems, is a full-blown Tory government and more Tory governments for another generation. But that's what Labour wants, isn't it? - because Labour can only really cope with opposition - they certainly can't cope with government - as they proved over 13 years!

You stupid morons!!

So the previous Labour candidate represented a morally bankrupt party, and was a proven crook to boot, and STILL the idiotic sheep in Barnsley voted Labour! Wake up, you fools, Labour is NO LONGER a progressive, Socialist party but a bunch of hypocritical, doctrinaire autocrats - didn't the 13 years of Labour government teach you ANYTHING?

And which parties did the cretins in Barnsley put before the LibDems?

A bunch of nationalistic xenophobes and the f**king Tories, that's who!

I despair - this country deserves everything it gets!

That Richard, was exactly my reaction.

When Mr. Carman said "The electorate in Barnsley have given us a kicking, but we can take it." "Just as well you can." thought I
"'Cause I'd say there are likely to be a few more kickings in that direction in the future".
