[John h]

Well I'd better get me surf up for sale pdq before the base rate goes up next month ! Work with regional development agencies so I guess a change of career looks on the cards 1 we are all in for a meeting tomorrow oh great joy !

I heard from several sources that this recession has been deeper and longer than the one Thatcher conjoured up. First in, last out too, apparently.

I personally feel a little more hopeful tonight than I did with the spectre of another inept, spineless labour govt (the only other possibility in reality).

I particularly enjoyed Cameron's 'if you can, you will' hint towards societies spongers, and George Osborne's plainer spoken version of the same in the past few months. Excellent, I do hope they stick to that.

And yes, you are a young un. Personally, I dont think you should even get to vote yet

[Sancho]

Sancho, you are going to get nowhere tonight especially if you post graphs with the last few years cropped off. It's not about the miners strike tonight, it's not about milk snatching. It's and end to a malignant mans attempt to run a country. We are not in a land of milk and honey just because there is a (part) Tory government, but with a bit of luck, things might stop getting worse.
Now, stop being such an old misery and have a beer with us happy types.

I know what you're saying and it's mostly because I've been stuck working from home all day (actually working) so gone stir crazy.

I am a bit staggered by this whole 'ding dong the witch is dead' thing when next up is Satan though. I'm only a young'un (relatively) but I've been through two recessions now and this one's been a cakewalk compared to the on Thatcher conjured up.

Can't see how it can get any worse than being governed by a bunch of scotsmen with their own agendas!

There are 600+ MPs. The majority of them I believe are in it for the right reasons. The unsung faceless majority are I believe decent sorts. I believe that for all his faults Gordon Brown was one of the decent ones.
I just hope that our new PM is also one of the decent ones but for now Im reserving judgement. Lets wait and see. I just hope that we have not entered an era where a general election is seen as another form of X factor and its the one who looks best on camera who wins. The people have spoken, lets just hope they spoke sense.

You wish. I'm not a fan of Labour or GB, but with Cameron in charge we are in deep, deep shit.

According to the ons.....we already are. Whoever "won" this electionhad already lost it. Historically, labour ALWAYS do this though....spend up till the cash has gone. I will just always remember the weasel lib dems and there self serving agenda.

Probably the next Pr*ck to occupy the role!!

Some of them claim that much for travel expenses!!!!!!!!

I'm sure they're all the same! Most of them would never want to be an MP if the salary was capped at about £40k
