Brown is an Idiot, Vote for New Ideas
« Reply #20 on: April 29, 2010, 08:51:40 AM »
Since 1999 Alex Salmond represented us in Banff & Buchan.  He is also the First Minister for Scotland. The road from Peterhead (Europe's biggest white fish port) and Aberdeen (the Oil Capital of European) is mostly a single road,  which is really hard to believe.  There are two small pieces of the 26 mile stretch that are dual carriageway,   get stuck behind a tractor or  one of the hundreds of lorries using the road and you can be slowed down for miles.  Did Alex Salmond do anything about this road?  Guess?  
Glen Craft a disabled factory workshop that produced furniture in Aberdeen was on the brink of closing last year and the spokesman who was interviewed on T.V. asked where was Mr Salmond and why did he not help?  The Factory closed and it was a very sad day with all the disabled workers loosing there jobs, however, the good news is an Oil Company stepped in and financed the factory to open again.  It opened this week and guess who was there with the workers and giving his opinions to the T.V.  well of course, it was Mr Salmond.
Mr Salmond managed to raise £50,000 to get a court action so he could be on T.V. with the big three... He lost, what a waste of money that was.
We had a very bad experience some years ago when there was a great deal of trouble at our local village school involving a teacher.   A group of us parents went to visit Mr Salmond and told him of all the problems.  He listened to us all and then promised to help.    He did nothing and 8 children left the school which only had 21 pupils, the eight children joined a school 3 miles away it was a disaster for the school and the children, at a later date the teacher was put to a desk job in Aberdeen.
If anyone has seen the Trawlermen it may interest you do know that Jimmy Buchan is standing for the Conservatives in Banff & Buchan.
I don't know whether it's better disregard politics and parties and to vote for the local person standing who is interested in his constituency.  Who knows?

There should be a day, just one day, which should be declared as open season on politicians.

UKIP have actually come out and told voters NOT to vote for them in some areas as it will simply let Labour back in.

You have been warned!

The only way to get shut of this horrible unelected PM and his party is to vote for the Conservatives.

For what it's worth I think they are all shysters BUT we HAVE to get rid of Brown and his cronies before they take us even further down the path to another Greek tragedy.

you changed your tune :D

Before anyone has a go at me I am not a Labour supporter, I indeed voted for Maggie when I was a coalface worker.

 I look at each party on their merits at the time. This is my veiw,  I have decided this time it is Labour for me, after Gordon Brown did the decent thing and apologised in person Gillian whats a name. I really believe he is a decent chap and the Greek situation is real proof it is the wrong time to take money out of the economy.
Look back over the years

Minimum wage

waiting lists down to a few weeks for operations and to see specialists.
 
Fuel allowances for the eldeley ( my late mother told me she had never been so well off as a pensioner as in the last few years with fuel allowances etc)

I know myself I have been able to retire at 50 because I worked hard and saved, I will never know if the same would have been under a Tory goverment.

When people have stopped admiring Nick Cleggs smoothe style they need to look at his manifesto.

I don't know a lot about politics I watch a lot of news and I listen to people in debates, my honest opinion is at this time Gordon Brown is the man to carry on. Remeber when you vote you are voting for your local MP.
 Mine is a Lib Dem who had to repay £9,950 back in expenses and do a written apology to the house.

A QUESTION FOR ALL

All you have to do is answer honestly

Q: Have you ever had a conversation with someone where you showed respect and courtesy to the person, only to get into your car/away from them and call them a to55er :D

Ok maybe not that word specifically lol

But have you ever done that?

Answer 1:

Yes, regularly

Me too, My sitting MP is Lib Dem and one of the good guys, my area is a sea of yellow posters with labour having no hope of taking the seat,
 so for the first time in my life I will be voting Lib Dem, to keep the Tory's at bay.

Funny how no one ever mentions when the Tory party invented unelected Prime Ministers!!!!!
and now all of a sudden..its the Labour Party at fault.
The Tories Voted out Maggie Thatcher... no one asked for an election then.
I think Shake the country..... neither of the two big parties deserve a vote.... give someone else a chance.
