HOW COULD WE BE WORSE OFF

[TrueBlueTerrier]

Surley we are not scared of Camerons merry men so much we will vote labour out of fear?

Time to grow some balls and look at what else there is out there, dont be delulded by the union big wigs that there is no alternative to labour.

As you have posted elsewhere (I think) the alternatives are not fully developed as yet - for a lot of reasons - the voting system being one of them.
The political space needed to develop alternatives to Labour funnily enough will only be available under Labour.
So basically the answer to your question is yes. Anything to avoid the return of a Tory government.

The good news on the voting system is that there was recently a vote in the house which was carried by a majority that the would be a referendum on changing the voting system but only if Labour win and not until Oct 2011 http://www.inthenews.co.uk/news/politic ... 359237.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

GB is backing it as well as per PMQs on 3 Feb 10 http://news.bbc.co.uk/democracylive/hi/ ... 485923.stm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

TBH its not going to get in before the next GE and if the Conuservative party wins by a good majority then nothing will happen at all, but at least its being looked at and thats progress imho.

We often hear about low hour wages under the Tories from Labour when defending the level of the minium wage, but if we take inflation into account I wonder just how much the minium wage would match up with low wages under the Tories, a lot more than Labour would care to admit I bet!!!!

The minimum wage is uprated higher than inflation Daz.....it's still very low though! I couldn't afford to live on it.

Funny how the minimum wage is rapidly becoming the workers wage CBI and FBI are strangely supportive, must be good for us all then

One good thing I've heard Cameron say is that he will change the law regarding Labour funding from the unions. So once a year we will have the choice to donate a portion of our subs to Labour or not, instead of once every 10 years which it is now. Labour are no longer a working class party imo, they have done nothing to help us in the last 7 odd years or any other union members either. The Tories will sell us off without a doubt to help repay the obscene debts Labour have incurred because of pointless wars etc.

The FBI and the CBI are just counting the days down to when everyone below managerial level are on minimum wage. After all if everyone is paid the same we won't need Unions, and the pay bill will be easier to administrate.

There should be a maximum wage. Crozier and Billy Hayes should be on the same rate of pay as we are.
