    Labour policy is to keep people poor and dependent on the state
    Conservative policy is to encourage self improvement

    How do you think they’ll do that?

    Spare me the hollow platitudes about breaking free from the shackles of the EU, if you don’t mind. What do you really think this government will do for the N.E. of England?

    For a start I hope it's the start of a drive to rid free of all the corruption up here by the Labour MP's and councillors. The North West and the North East both have Labour associates currently under criminal investigations for fraud and corruption.

    The Conservatives will bring new businesses and opportunity to the people of the North East, it's what they're good at.

    French fishing boats sighted off the coast of Hartlepool. So probably not.

    No. Regardless who is governing Hartlepool, the folk who live there will always be braindead inbreds.

    In wards last contested in 2017, the swing to the Conservatives is 4 points in the most working class areas, while there is a 4 point swing to Labour in the most middle class ones.

    These figures illustrate the lack of progress that Labour has made in reconnecting with working class voters since the general election

    I guess calling all your supporters and activists "Antisemites" isn't helpful :1980_boogie_down:

    You stand just as much chance of corruption from the Turdies as Labour, grubby feckers have all got their noses in the trough. Recent exploits in Liverpool and elsewhere just reinforces the stereotype of politicians from all sides being disgustingly greedy. From Tory peers claiming for duck houses to Labour politicians trying to get off speeding tickets, each side have their own examples of deplorable behaviour.

    Is there any such thing as an honest politician? Dig deep enough and they all seem to have their own skeletons buried somewhere.

    The working class are thick. And I speak as somebody who came from that class. I'm pleased to have left and not just for the posh car and the house in the country. Suck it up suckers.

    It's bizarre that people try to defend one flavour of lying thief over another, and take it so personally when they realise the majority prefer the other flavour.

    One of the bigger reasons for me wanting out of the EU, was to reduce the number of these type of ****s with access to the trough.

    The fuss about the 'war' in the Channel Islands seems to have been missed by the French media, who seem to have it as an 'in other news' in the side bar as a minor protest.

    This is what I don't get. The mongs on here repeat the old 'Labour don't care about the working class' soundbite they've been fed, yet never give a single example of anything the Tories have done for the working class.
