On the 2nd January 2014, in a bid to gather more support for the Government's much criticised 'Help To Buy' scheme, the Prime Minister took to Twitter to promote what appears to be a story about a young mum and her daughter buying their very first home."

It has always been lies.

Take a 100K house they would have to have a 75K mortgage - what is the criteria/salary to get that kind of borrowing as it will exclude millions who work in retail, call centres, and those on national minimum wage. After 5 years your friendly government borrowing (an additional 20%) has to start to be paid back. The crux of that kicking in, is that the government have assisted people to borrow 20% more than they can afford....Ummm, I am sure that is how part of this mess kicked off #-o

Are you having a laugh? Labour either abstained or voted for quite a few of them. :shock:
Never forget the bedroom tax was a labour baby. :wink:

The country is so f*c%e^ up and people still continue to go and vote for an extremely broken system of ping pong ping pong.

A total failure of any votes being cast would put the fear of god into all of the parties ! Why are/have they been considering giving the vote to 16 year olds and prisoners + millions of votes from immigrants (look what we have done for you syndrome)? Basically they know that the system is in free-fall, and they know that they have to do something to arrest it - I will not be part of a broken corrupt system.

Read it in its total context!

The system is rotten to the core, by going along with it you are NEVER going to change it. How is anyone going to get elected.........if no one votes!!!!!!!!! The system would have to be changed.

In this case doing nothing - is doing something. Stop your criticising and give us the alternative, or do you like ping pong, ping pong :roll:. In this case it is broken, as such it needs serious mending.

As some politician once said " If your vote really counted......do you think that they would let you have it"

John i can see where your coming from and i am continuously recommending a GENERAL STRIKE TO REMOVE THIS GOVERNMENT and replace it with one that undertakes to prosecute the banksters and renationalise ALL the Utility comapny's and the Railways WITHOUT COMPENSATION.

SO ADDRESS THAT PROPOSAL DEAR CHAP .......AND LEAVE OUT YOUR NORMAL DEFEATISM........... :D
