I doubt Brown will still be PM by then so he can quite simply go and fuck himself

Diesels are more polluting how can a bus chucking out all that black shit be cleaner????

Bunch of twatsthey will only learn when things go tits up and won't affect them as they have there second houses paid for by us..

I could talk a load of bollocks and have a laugh in a room full of pricks!!

the government might change at the next election but nothing that we are all moaning about will change.

if the conservatives get in they will blame everything on labour for the first few years raising taxes "to combat the mistakes of labour".

before we make the vote does anyone know the changes the other parties will make to the issues we are all talking about...i.e

fuel costs/tax
first time buyers
road tax
how they plan on keeping interest rates down but the economy sweet(boe have a hand in this too ofcourse).


knife crime and 42 days detention is not what everyone is talking about at the moment i feel people are more worried about having the cash to keep a roof over there families heads!

My thoughts exactly. We have laws that deal with murderers, by knife or whatever weapon, and have done for aeons, they seem to work fine. 42 days? Couldn't give a fuck about it.

The TV is full of the "news" that the politicians want it to show.

As Dave boy says it would be good to know the other parties take on transport.. Can’t see Labor getting in again though.. They only got in last time because of Tony Blair IMO.. Seems to me all politicians are tossers, they are all power greedy wankers that’s why they became politicians in the first place attracts that sort of person.. we are doomed. Why cant we have sensible people with a bit of common sence in power..

No diesel is more expensive (by about 11%) because its got more energy in a given volume (by about 11%)

Diesel has had its day, we have less of it than petrol and anyone that thinks it the future for cars in deluded.

JAmes.

I have decide to fit a wind generator to the roof of my prius in order to save the petrol engine from having to carge the batteries,Chipie recons this would be the answer to the worlds petrol problems in that the faster you go on the batteries the more electricity it would generate,he also suggested the surplus electric I could sell back to the national grid,chip you are a star

Why don't you all stop winging and emigrate to Canada like wot I did, LOL ! Come on over "the waters great" half price houses, great wages (more jobs than workers) you name the wages you want to work for, low taxes, no road tax, petrol 70 cents a litre, 2% unemployment (thats the ones who don't want to work) no national debt but a $4.6 billion surplus ($8.8 billion last year) the government says "you wait to see the surplus next year" its going to be unbelievable.

Takes guts but its worth it...........................

problem is theres ALOT of people who have become very wealthy under labour. look how many people have £1million houses because of how bouyant the markets been.

An ex mayor locally summed it up:
Theres only two types of people in this country that will do well
- the very very rich
- the very poor
you can forget about us lot in the middle!!

IF... the conservatives get in daves considered green. So hes hardly going to slash duty and road tax is he?

All these mp's have got to claim there new hifi and rug from john lewis after all!

not wirth it now and you probably couldn't sell it anyway.
and if you did you would have to pay the same to buy the house next door and if you did gordon would be richer to the tune of 80k
the fact that your home is or was worth more is irrelavent and not real money you have to live somewhere
