If you're a socialist, a 'progressive' liberal, a person of decent morals, let the Labour party die and a genuine leftist and decent party emerge from the ashes.

Straw man. I've not seen anyone banging a NEW Labour drum. I think the leftists you're aiming at mostly support green (ie left) policies. And the only way to get anywhere near them is with electoral reform......  :yawn:

I love you sloper. Your continuing political rants and rallies make my decision to never vote Tory no matter what a whole lot easier.

I second that Chris.  For all Cameron's protestations that a tory govt will "Carry everyone with them, the poor, the downtrodden...."  blah, blah, blah, I know who's going to shaft the poor, the old, the trades unions.  The Tories will look after their own just as they always have.  I'll never forgive labour for, amongst other things, Iraq and the 10% tax fiasco, but no tory govt would have given us winter fuel allowance, free bus passes, minimum wage, sure start etc etc.  So, fuck the tories and everything they stand for, I'm going to act all tribal and vote Labour so stick that in your pipe and smoke it Slopes!  :wave:

Here's a point really relevant to all of us climbers: would a Conservative government have passed the CRoW act?

And the answer (as you know):

Not a fucking hope. They ARE the landowners.

I'm sure they would have opted for CHoP (Countryside Hunting of Proletariat) or something.

I'd like to point out that at around 3 minutes that video talks about Ed Ball and his Contemplation room, which Cameron made a point of bringing up in his TV debates, what he negelected to mention, if he knows at all, is that a contemplation room is actually a place for members of different Faiths to pray!

The bottom line of all of these Tory Propaganda videos is that even if we accept them as verbatim, and that is a big if, and we accept that Labour has cocked things up, the small hiccups they have made are nothing compared to the way the Tories buggered things up last time they were in power.
Just because Labour has made some mistakes does not mean that the Tories would have done better, they haven't made mistakes by default because they weren't (and should not be) running the country.
