Referendum

[Farriercm]

Of course the GOOD thing about the result of the Scottish Referendum is,
We will not have a Perpetual Tory government in the UK,so some good came out of Scotland. ----- Enjoy.

It was my mother who taught me to vote Conservative,


I must say Prudie.....I'm flabbergasted they let your mother go into the booth with you.

mikey, nobody buys british coal because deep coal minng is too expensive, particularly when other countries are perfectly OK despoiling their environment with mines like this:-

how many of these would you tolerate in your part of wales?

[-Talbot-]

lol, I never read all of your post ............how the **** did you forget how to write 'X' in a box?

Echoing Talbot here....you already owned BT craft. It used to be called the GPO and then they gave it a new lick of yellow paint, so why did you waste money buying something your already owned ? BT's share price closed at just over £4 on Friday...still making money for you ?

It was the late 70s, all a bit of a fog

[mikey4444]

Wouldn't that also occur when a town had had a Tory Council, MP, etc DB ?
Or is only Labour Councils/MPs that can possibly be at fault ?

It still doesn't explain why Labour won the landslide victory in 1979 ?
Nobody was seriously expecting Major to win, of course but the scale of his defeat was terrible, and remains to to this day.

really? Mrs Thatcher batted for the labour party???

[mikey4444]

Mush...typo...1997 ! ( as you already knew )

[mikey4444]

Its much too nice an evening to spend the rest of it trawling through a huge list of Councils, Tory and Labour, but your view of Politics doesn't seem to be very balanced DB !

Mikey, your apparent delight is misplaced. I don't dislike what you say; I'm simply bemused by your constant flow of misinformation and by your stubborn refusal to acknowledge facts. Why were the Conservatives voted out in 1997? Because people don't know when they're well off, so back to Labour and its trades union masters - and back t'mill with the hoi polloi because they're only working class. Move on out of the dark ages, Mikey! Times have changed and people have changed. The Labour Party is dead - and it's replacement is no substitute.

Sheffield city council has been labour controlled since 1958, except for 2 short isolated periods of short duration. they presided over the slow dereliction of the park hill flats, a squalid 1960s slum that dominates the city skyline, and which is only now being refurbished due to a part privatization deal with urban splash. I don't recall privatization being labour party policy, particularly for a redder than red council like Sheffield, who squandered millions of the city's money on the world student games in the 1980s.

just goes to show that times change, and the modern labour party is probably just a clone of the tory party now.

Mickey, re idiot slags was to this disaster due to NCB neglectful storage of coal *** behind a school, that buried pupils alive. If livlihoods were lost by closures, thats better than another similar disaster.
