Considering the result of this poll and the amount of complaining online when compared to the actual Stafford results, I concluded that we have a lot of closet tories who don't use the Internet. :P

Typical narrow minded viewpoint, those that have voted have made their choice loud and clear, now dry your tears and get back to work!!

Errr...

...my viewpoint is one overlooking the future of a pay on demand health service for a population unable to do so, some people have chosen this, some have not. Those who have and those who have not will regret this decision, I don't understand the exclamation about getting back to work, perhaps you could offer an explanation?

What, I wonder, on this 70th anniversary of VE Day, would the generation that gave us the NHS and so much else that was fair and decent in postwar society that's been flogged off in recent years, think about the values and behaviour of the bunch of self-serving spivs to whom we've just handed back the keys?

But 'getting back to work' is probably sound advice. None of us is getting any younger, and we'll need to be able to pay the doctor somehow after the practices get taken over by the American medical corporations. Although I suspect your interlocutor was just being nasty, because it's OK to be nasty now.

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out...

Etc.

Self serving spivs? I think that applies to all politicians. You have a very short memory as it labour who set the NHS off into a downwards spiral under blair and brown.

Everything bad about our country is Blair and Browns fault, benefits was a lifestyle under labour it should be a emergency last resort unless you're disabled. They've ruined the NHS, sold all our gold and put us all on our knees, if you back labour then you either love benefits or youve been told by the older generation that labour is for working folk which is utter rubbish.

No I don't live that far in the past, I was a young child so to be honest it's irrelevant to me.

It was hard when I was a child but my dad worked hard and I played outside, it's hard now for people on benefits I understand that but they shouldn't expect their benefits to pay for their booze, fags, flat screensTV's, ps4's and kids come on now, that would only be possible with labour in charge.

And what does that generation who sacrificed so much think about their country being flooded with foreign johnnies and the country being a part of Europe dominated by the Germans?

Go and talk to my parents and they will tell you!

I remember some of my old friends living the "benefit lifestyle", sitting at home, smoking the weed, refusing to votes 'cos they were anarchists, back in 1989.

Pretty sure the Tories were in control back then and they despised Labour equally.

There will always be elements who do not play by the "accepted rules", it makes no justification for demonising all benefit claimants though.

Labours ruse is to use the less well off in society to gain votes at the expense of everybody else. They signed us up to europe without a referendum with the simple idea of importing voters. They dont give two loves about the country, they only care about hanging on to power. Its like taking a size ten to the scrote and going back for another once the pain has gone.

Didn't Ted Heath take the UK into Europe? And Labour gave the people the opportunity to vote on whether to stay or go in 1975.

Ah yes, that well known Labourite Ted Heath. Can't he take some of the blame? Or is that too long ago to be relevant?
To be fair, it's an easy mistake, Ted Heath was well to the left of New Labour - imagine an incomes policy of a pound plus 4% today...?

I mean the constitution bullshit that brown signed in 2oo7. You know, the one that castrated the UK and made us Brussels bitch? The one where we get told we have to pay them billions a year to get told what to do, the one where they tell us we cant have a vacum cleaner over a certain wattage and that anyone from a country in the union can come over here and we will give them stuff for free.
