Do you know, saying what is wrong with the left is no different from saying what is wrong with the right, I don't know one person who thinks the Conservatives have been a good government, on the other hand I don't know one person who doesn't say it will be even worse under Labour. It's one thing to stay at home twiddling your thumbs in a by election but when it counts you have to go and do something. Which is why the Tory voters will probably be back in the polling booths en masse next year. There aren't enough Borchesters left to fill the local village hall. |

I don't know if Labour can clear up the mess or not but I think it's pretty clear that the Tories can't. I'm not a lefty either, or a righty for that matter.
What's "The mess"?
For starters the cost of living crisis, NHS waiting lists, education with our schools literally falling apart in some instances, the merry go round at No10. |

Well allow to introduce myself as the first person you've met who doesn't believe it will be worse under Labour. Not saying everything will be rosy overnight, there's a hell a lot of mess to clean up and I have some serious concerns about Keir Starmer but I think he's a better candidate than Sunak or anyone else the Tories can realistically put forward. The Tories are in a similar position to Labour in 2010 for me. Ran out of ideas, forgotten what they stand for or want to achieve and are just trying to cling on to power for the sake of it. A spell in opposition will do them good IMHO. Funnily enough that is exactly what the Tories said after Labour. Its all madness. Who as usual have managed to create more problems than they have ever fixed. I appreciate nostalgia can be a deceptive creature but I'm old enough to remember the last Labour government and I'd say that generally things were better then than are now. |

Maybe but beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder, the point was they all say exactly the same things. Which tend to get repeated. |
