    It was mostly inane.

    Watched tonight. Jesus.


    Farage was farage.

    Plaid Cymric we?re irrelevant as the SNP (in terms outside Scotland)

    The lass from the greens was OK but she can promise what she wants she won?t get in. She impressed me though.


    Raynor and Mordant - the tittle tattle and spats between them was exactly what turns people off politics. He said she said, you said they said.you did this, yeah but you said you?re gonna do that. Petty bickering, blaming each other Not much about the vision. It wasn?t what we would do make things better it was just they did or said this. Terrible from both.

    The lass from the liberals spoke well, again without the yoke of being held to account by being in power.


    Political debate in this country is absolute toilet

    If he's capable of playing a decent chunk of Rotherham's season in the Championship, their fans saying he was a top performer in that team leagues above and we don't give him a ridiculous contract, then we will be doing good business.



    If he signs it will be to play left back

    As an idea, it's laughable that it's been rolled out at the eleventh hour as part of a general election campaign.

    However, if it were to form part of a rejigged education syllabus with the specific aim of equipping young people with life skills and hopefully preventing them from going down a route that so many do, I'm not convinced it is a bad idea. It might not be a significant problem in your neighbourhood or mine, but in some areas home life and the education system is failing them. Teachers know it's a problem, so do youth workers, employers, the police and the probation service.

    I think we're a long way from having a political party with the appetite to tackle the education system, employment, crime, and many other issues which are more than evident in society.



    That?s pretty much what I was getting at in post 161

    Would they pass for asylum? If not then they get sent somewhere else....of course we may need the extra labour to get the economy going and give us the growth we need to pay for the future...

    You agree with the Rwanda policy then?

    As I said, I think giving structure and a sense of community to those who dont have it is a good thing. I dont think letting 16 years old vote is a good thing. Cant buy property (cant own property!), cant get married, encouraged to be in education or training... but can vote on the most serious matter that the company chooses..?

    Where are Labour's policies? They arent going to raise taxes or NI according to Reeves, but we are going to have new teachers, new coppers, more hospital appointments... and a new deal for workers which at least one union thinks is full of holes, and most employers seem not to be enamoured of.... and what else?? Definitely going for the election on the basis of "we arent the Tories and the only one who can win"... the leaflet from my local Labour candidate actually says that! Lots of critique of the current lot, bog all about what they will do, just wish lists, and we are the only ones who can beat the Tories...



    I thought this was about the so called national service and not labours policies.



    Never mind Ian
