In reply to ihateuk40. Yes it is truly bizarre when you think about it like that.

Sickening to think that proud British People would stand for this Tin Pot Tory Regime as if it were the norm in a so called civilised society. .How our forefathers have been let down,, Laying down their precious lives against foreign tyranny, Just to have it Home Grown here in “Great Britain”..I feel ashamed to be British! !!

In reply to ihateuk40. Doors that mean we're doomed to have another male leader? :-) Or two even?

Right now the wagon is rumbling along safely. The first time a Tory MP has the misfortune and indecency to die and for the Conservatives to lose the subsequent by-election, the vultures will assemble fairly quickly on the 10 Downing Street lawn; even more so after the second by-election loss. At each Cabinet meeting Cameron will spot them out of the corner of his eye, and then wonder how many are now in the room. It only takes 6 rebels to vote against the government to – in theory – deprive it of a majority, and 12 to abstain. History tells us that Chamberlain had not lost his Parliamentary majority when 80 or so government MPs abstained on the Norway debate. He was out within days. Cameron will win the Stay In referendum Yes vote with ease, but with Labour support. There are many issues when such support won’t be there. All political lives end in failure, as he will discover.

We are obviously missing the elephant In the room with our current state of politics. It Is our electoral system that give one UKIP MP for 4 million votes, and 56 scottish MP’s for 1.8million votes.

We live In a truly undemocratic democracy. This has been the most ludicrous outcome In Brtish political history.

In reply to Selohesra.

They don’t understate Tory support – they understate the desperation of some of the countries voters.

I didn’t want a Tory Government because I simply cannot trust them, nor did I want a Labour Government led by weakest-willed Party Leader in recent history.
most of the other Parties didn’t suit the needs of the people, and the ones that did, just cannot get enough seats.

So people were forced to make a choice, a weak-willed Labour Leader too close to the centre… or a Strong-willed Tory Leader trying to reduce the population of the countries.poorest and most vulnerable by any means necessary.
(Yes I trust Left-Wing Parties more than Right)

They chose murder over door-mat…

Can’t say I blame them, but it shows the state of the countries voting system when 1/3 of the people somehow are considered the ‘Majority’… leaving the other 2/3 to wonder why.

I am interested to see how the Tories deal with these pledges that they made when they couldn’t manage to stick to the previous ones.

I just hope that I’m not screwed over once again by the system that is supposed to protect me from poverty whilst I am recovering from serious health issues.

Oh for goodness sake, get a grip…the two parties in the coalition, before the run up to the election, shaking hands and best of mates, were slagging each other off pre election…as if they wouldn’t touch each other with a bargepole…yet no doubt would have been kissing arses if they had to form another coalition. This is politics, when was there ever integrity and honesty.
