Are the Tories Evil?

I know Politics are not something to be talked about as usually leads to arguments.

However are the Tories not evil? I have never ever seen anyone say they are not evil.

Tories belief that the State, should have minimal interference in the running of it's citizens life. That should be done by the private sector.

Now we know that means, a company owned by themselves or one of thier associates. I don't know about you, but I don't want to see the Police run by a unregulated private entity that's only answerable to its shareholders.

I did not like Labour in the 1990s but we are almost heading towards Medieval Fiefdoms only run by Corporations instead of Normans with the promise of automated tyranny...

What she said.

Also, yes, Tories are evil as is anyone who finds them acceptable. Labour is too. Cut from the same cloth.

Yes.

At their heart, tories consider people a resource for garnering money. That’s evil. People have inherent and whole value.

Minimal interference? Jesus, they're telling everyone else how to live by banning shit. Just because rishi didn't get to be a prefect he seems intent on telling everyone what to do instead of fucking off and living off of his millions.

They're so out of touch they might as well be living in fucking castles as the rest of us struggle in the shit.

I think we are slowly loosing the concept of choice. There is less choice in shops and perhaps its part of it. One day people will just accept that there is one party and forget we once had choice.

I think the only way we are going to change things is to get the guillotines out.

All politicians are self serving scumbags. Regardless of the party they belong to. They don’t care about Joe Public, we are just the cash cow.

We are taxed to oblivion in the UK yet they still squeeze and squeeze. Something like 71p out of every £1 earned or spent ends up back in the governments pockets. It’s beyond a joke. So yes, they are evil, but they all are.

No, not all of them. But the vast majority of at least the current lot. And Johnson made it mandatory to be either evil or stupid or utterly self-interested, or any combination of those, to be allowed any high office in the conservative government.

I think the biggest lie we are told is that we live in a society where the public actually influences the decision makers. Whether it be the Tories or Labour.

And we have allowed it to happen where they have chipped away at our freedoms and we have "sleepwalked" into it.

I don't trust people in suits. Look throughout history, men in suits are inherently evil. It's a projection of something they are not. Suits are associated with integrity for some reason.

There was once a breed of Tory who wasn’t inherently evil, even if their options on how to best serve the county were diametrically opposed to mine.

Johnson changed that. His ‘new’ 2019 intake were the shallowest, most self-serving imbeciles, brought in solely to push through his demands. Low intellect, zero morals sycophants.

Taxes pay for public services. We can vote for parties who promise low(er) taxes (like the Tories) so long as we're happy to accept worse/fewer public services (see the Tories point above).

But on the OP - I don't think the political party as a whole is evil. Some very vindictive and divisive people and policies in there though, imho.

How many people died in Covid due to money though? Boris is not a fool, this bumbling, stuttering persona he puts on was to appeal to the middle class idiots who would explain his racism as "hah old bean that's just old Boris". He is a complete narcissist and would throw anyone under the bus if he needed.

It does crack me up when they have ministers from an ethnic group spouting their nonsense. The grass roots membership and old tories would have them on a boat as soon as possible if they could.

They are only out for themselves and their rich buddies!

They attack the old and disabled every time. Getting help if you are in those categories is practically non existing. They have to continually struggle to find money.

They have single handedly crippled the NHS and do nothing to help. It's impossible to see a NHS dentist now.

They are all as bad as each other, lying, thieving cunts.

I agree my family voted for them, many of them are dead in last 8 years or so but it has made me question what sort of people they were. I don't feel I knew them.

The tory party has never changed, they have always put themselves first above all other, punishing the poor whilst rewarding the rich.

End of the day, it's all fine and well doing a soapbox rant, when it comes to voting day we need a strong Labour leader who will put the people first and Start claiming the taxes from large companies and actually saving this country

As per the other thread what is your definition of a Tory? Is it an MP or a party member or someone that always votes for them or someone that mostly votes for them or someone that voted for them at the previous GE?

No.

We do have a Tory party that isn't really traditional conservative values. However they are probably seeking to make the right noises that will keep them in power (or at least, that's what they have done the last 8 years doing).

But that (arguably) suggests they are pumping out an agenda that resonates with the masses. As such we need to look at ourselves.

Maybe the "evil" bit is how they manipulate the agenda. But that is still on us to a certain degree.

Can't speak for that person, but in this context, I would understand that "Tory" means the current government, and maybe the previous too, back over the last 13 years.

I would say "Evil" could be argued. How many of them actually want to make the country a better place? I presume some do. But then a lot of them see it as either a game to play, a continuation of the games they played at Eton. Or they see it as an opportunity for enrichment and power at any expense.

They've left a trail of devastation in their wake. Austerity, huge amount of debt, Brexit, decline of the NHS etc etc. all the meanwhile being able to count on getting reelected from their loyal electorate who seem to absorb the elements of the press distracting them from what's been going on, redirecting their ire to immigrants, homeless people, people who eat Tofu, people who are aware of social injustice especially racism, etc etc.

Which is why I'm not hopeful for any change in the next GE.

Evil means - immoral and wicked. Immoral is "not being concerned with the principles of right and wrong behaviour". Wicked is morally wrong (bit of tautology there)

So in my book all political parties are immoral and wicked simply because they reflect the demands of the people who elect them. You only have to scratch the surface of the migrants "crisis" to see that.

Soon the Conservatives will do what they have done since time immemorial: promise services, cut Taxes and run up debt to try and buy the election. If labour come in, faced with 5 years of government ahead of them, they will increase taxes to pay for the services they promised and deal with their predecessor's debt. Thus the Conservative mantra that the Labour party is invested in Tax and spend politics is once again proved correct.

So they do not do what is right for the country, they do what suits themselves. This is not morally right for those elected to look after the interests of the country.

If the question is "Have there been a minority of evil actors in recent Conservative governments", the answer is yes. If it's "Have there been incompetent actors in recent Conservative governments", the answer is also yes. If the question is "are all people who served in Conservative governments, or who support them, evil", then the answer is absolutely not (this could stretch to 35% of UK voters). All of these can be seen by the fact that the Conservative government and support base has punished bad and incompetent actors. And has been split about it. An argument could be made that any rifts are evil and self serving, but that's not immediately evident.

Most of politics is initially well-meaning people who think they know better (sometimes with evil ideals), bumbling around, trying to control things, for reasons of ego, drive, ideology or (rarely) financial self-interest. Very few politicians go in expecting to help their golf buddies. Many golf buddies spot opportunities in weak politicians, though. Some politicians become evil and greedy.

For us, the voters, it's all theatre, where we're the puppets.

I understand what you're saying, but it does seem like the top tier Tories genuinely don't give a fuck about any of us. Not that they actively want us to suffer, it's just not on their radar to consider the well being of British people.

It's always a problem to dismiss a large group as evil. That then leads to justifying terrible things. Let's replace Tory with Muslim, Catholic or Jew. If you find religion evil generally and can point to some evil individuals, then find something you don't like in the doctrine... Then suddenly we can dehumanise a large group of people, which causes all sorts of trouble.

We might not believe that non believers are apes and pigs. We might not believe that Jews are entitled to Israel. We might disagree with the Crusades. But we can have dialogue with the individuals to see common humanity and points upon which we do agree.

Anyone in the government can be ripped apart ethically, morally, judgement-wise. Terms such as evil are fine. But if someone broadly brushes a large (ill-defined) group of people as "evil", then unless they are committing evil en masse (e.g. ideological and practical Nazis, excluding the likes Ratzinger), such a description inevitably leads to evil.

In politics, we can certainly believe that POLICIES are evil. People feel that way about the Rwanda scheme, letting immigrants IN, NOT letting immigrants in, etc. Deciding that people who feel differently are necessarily evil is... Unhelpful, usually. And what leads to identity politics (that's a Tory policy, and I don't want to be THAT) and polarisation.

I think people like to belong and show they belong, and I can see it in repeated actions and sayings.

Statements such as I would never sleep with a tory, being a classic, you hear it once and then again, before long it becomes a badge of honour.

It also does make some sense that people who value the group more than the individual, need to be seen to be part of the group.

Unless your spouse is a Tory MP, your a millionaire or your going to benefit extremely well from them, then most people have no business voting Tories. Especially if your on a low salary.

Tory MP's are going around like some sort of Medieval Baron thinking thier department is thier own personal fiefdom.

Problem with this country is it has a lot of history. This sadly includes inherited nepotism. I don't believe in God, therefore he never anointed Kings, therefore they had no real right to appoint lords. Therefore all you have is a man with an army, thugs who legalised extortion and renamed it as tax.

"All governments share the fundamental responsibility of governing the country. Labelling tories "evil" smacks of the school playground and not appreciating the fact that decisions you don't agree with 100% of the time need to be made.

It's always a problem to dismiss a large group as evil. That then leads to justifying terrible things. Let's replace Tory with Muslim, Catholic or Jew. If you find religion evil generally and can point to some evil individuals, then find something you don't like in the doctrine... Then suddenly we can dehumanise a large group of people, which causes all sorts of trouble.

We might not believe that non believers are apes and pigs. We might not believe that Jews are entitled to Israel. We might disagree with the Crusades. But we can have dialogue with the individuals to see common humanity and points upon which we do agree.

Anyone in the government can be ripped apart ethically, morally, judgement-wise. Terms such as evil are fine. But if someone broadly brushes a large (ill-defined) group of people as "evil", then unless they are committing evil en masse (e.g. ideological and practical Nazis, excluding the likes Ratzinger), such a description inevitably leads to evil.

In politics, we can certainly believe that POLICIES are evil. People feel that way about the Rwanda scheme, letting immigrants IN, NOT letting immigrants in, etc. Deciding that people who feel differently are necessarily evil is... Unhelpful, usually. And what leads to identity politics (that's a Tory policy, and I don't want to be THAT) and polarisation."

Except there is a huge spectrum of beliefs that exist within religions that doesn't exist in the Tory party. You can have extremely traditional conservative Muslims and very leftwing live and let live Muslims. No such equivalent with Tories.

So yes, it's fine to say Tories are evil

All parties have in-fighting about how extreme they should be in one direction or another. Some Tories are anti-gay and anti-abortion. Some would die to defend both.

Some Labour politicians supported Brexit, some were opposed with their entire being.

That's an odd statement.

They weren't murdered if, as you state, they had terminal illnesses. However, I grant you that if they were dying, they were dealt with by rules that show a lack of empathy.

Where does the figure come from and over what period are we talking?

from fullfact:

"2,600 benefit claimants die within weeks of being ruled fit for work"

The Daily Mail, 27 August 2015

"More Than 4,000 Died Within Six Weeks Of Being Deemed 'Fit For Work', Reveal Government"

The Huffington Post, 27 August 2015

It was widely reported that thousands of people died within weeks of being found "fit for work" and losing their benefits.

This is wrong.

Within weeks of ending a claim, not within weeks of an assessment

The figures show the number of people who had been found "fit for work", and who died within weeks of their claim ending. They cover the period from late 2011 to early 2014. It's likely that in many of these cases, the person dying was why the claim ended.

A claim quite naturally ends when a claimant dies. The data being used here is collected every two weeks for Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) claimants and longer periods for other benefits.

from a very quick search, the deaths happened a few weeks after being classed for to work. The 2,600 was over the three year period looked at.

However, the fingers seemed to be printed at the company doing the assessing and getting it wrong.

While the period on question was under the Tory government (well coalition) it was right at the start. And the contract seems to have been given to Atos by labour.

This case feels more complex than evil Tory bastards.

I'll be 100% honest, I haven't started my research company, been out talking to the families of those who died and investigating their situations.

"I know Politics are not something to be talked about as usually leads to arguments.

However are the Tories not evil? I have never ever seen anyone say they are not evil.

Tories belief that the State, should have minimal interference in the running of it's citizens life. That should be done by the private sector.

Now we know that means, a company owned by themselves or one of thier associates. I don't know about you, but I don't want to see the Police run by a unregulated private entity that's only answerable to its shareholders.

I did not like Labour in the 1990s but we are almost heading towards Medieval Fiefdoms only run by Corporations instead of Normans with the promise of automated tyranny...

As per the other thread what is your definition of a Tory? Is it an MP or a party member or someone that always votes for them or someone that mostly votes for them or someone that voted for them at the previous GE?

The tories are a bunch of lying,corrupt scumbags and yes they are evil"

Does not really answer my question of what is the definition of Tories in this thread. I have voted Tory several times but won't be at next GE. Am I a classed as a Tory or do I have to be a party member or even an MP

You didn't care to read the fullfact findings on what is being discussed, I have posted a part of it above? I was correct with my first thoughts that the stats were off, you know when you can just tell?

Exactly! The stats were different, we shouldn't ever criticise the Tories. Especially if the cause a slightly different number of deaths that were reported somewhere."

and you are doubling down too! You are flying in the face of the reality to support misquoted and misunderstood stats used to provoke people?

You have also not read the reply from Hovis either, where it began?

This thread is really opening up the reasons why people think like they do.

"2,600 found fit for work died within 3yrs,the tories are not just evil they are murderers

You have lost me, they are fit for work but died and were claiming sickness benefits?

Found fit for work. That doesn’t necessarily mean fit for work.

To be honest I'm not giving this much more thought, it feels very much like one of the stats that drive all conspiracy and hatred campaigns

That's right. Any information that shows the Conservative government as they truly are, is a hate based conspiracy.

Done any research yourself, or taking it at face value?

No that is not what I’m saying. In this instance the explanation of how the stats were manipulated to produce a story that was not at all reflective of the truth, is correct as far as I’m aware.

"I know Politics are not something to be talked about as usually leads to arguments.

However are the Tories not evil? I have never ever seen anyone say they are not evil.

Tories belief that the State, should have minimal interference in the running of it's citizens life. That should be done by the private sector.

Now we know that means, a company owned by themselves or one of thier associates. I don't know about you, but I don't want to see the Police run by a unregulated private entity that's only answerable to its shareholders.

I did not like Labour in the 1990s but we are almost heading towards Medieval Fiefdoms only run by Corporations instead of Normans with the promise of automated tyranny...

As per the other thread what is your definition of a Tory? Is it an MP or a party member or someone that always votes for them or someone that mostly votes for them or someone that voted for them at the previous GE?

The tories are a bunch of lying,corrupt scumbags and yes they are evil

Does not really answer my question of what is the definition of Tories in this thread. I have voted Tory several times but won't be at next GE. Am I a classed as a Tory or do I have to be a party member or even an MP

My definition of tories is they are evil scumbags,that says it all "

I'm trying to understand if I fit in that category as someone that has in the past voted Tory or to be in that category do I need to be a party member or do I need to be an MP

My definition of tories is they are evil scumbags,that says it all

I'm trying to understand if I fit in that category as someone that has in the past voted Tory or to be in that category do I need to be a party member or do I need to be an MP

Did you agree with the decision to cut sick dying ppl off benefits?was this because of Tory policy tho ? And if so what did they change on their first few months of (coalition) government?

I would not agree that sick people should be taken off benefits, let alone dying people, why would I?

I was going down a rabbit hole with you, read the facts and make of it what you want and when you get to your conclusion, contact the correct party for an explanation

Ive read the facts from what seems reliable sources,im happy with that

Why would you be happy to settle with your 'reliable' sources when you're presented with a better source with offers further explanation?

That's strange thinking. "

thays not strictly true. Any policies labour had put in place would have continued until the Tories changed it.

On the face of it something looks wrong. I couldn't tell you if that was odd the back of a labour policy, Tory policy, or a company not doing what they were told to (and on which case, when did the oversight fail)

so many assumptions, firstly anyone who challenges your incorrect interpretation of the facts is a tory voter, is probably the big one.

On the facts, no matter how clear and independent they are you still insist on siding with the click bait headline that fed you the wrong story, I cannot help with this any further and should have stopped an age ago. I never learn…..

And just an overall observation, I can understand more clearly why media outlets write misleading articles, they have an audience that will lap it up.

Not sure if that means an MP, party member or voter. Can you just simply say which of those I have listed is your definition of a Tory

All,so do you agree with the desicion yes or no"

So finally we learn that anyone from Tory MP to someone that has voted Tory is an evil scumbag. Presumably this includes all those that often vote Labour but voted Tory at the last GE. Not a single person is exempt from this. As for benefits it seems not as clear cut given what others have revealed about the policy and it's introduction. But in general I would say those who are entitled to benefits should get them. Those that are not should not get them.

I asked which policy it was given these cases happened just after a change in government. Why are you so certain it's a Tory policy.

How can I answer if I agree with the policy if I don't know what the policy is ?

I can say that what happens looks bad for someone and something has gone wrong.

That's strange thinking.

Who says its a better source ?

Do you know what fullfact do?

Have you read any other source ?or just the one you beleive is better?

I take it you don't know what fullfact do then?

I think most (excluding delusional) people will agree that they are a far superior source than any newspaper, considering they exist for the sole reason to correct misleading stories.

So your saying the uk parliment is misleading ppl?il stick with who i beleive"

You provided the names of 3 newspapers and UK Parliament, you have shown any links as to where this information could be found, if you want people to check then you should provide links.

I'm happy to read a link from the Govt if you provide it.

"I know Politics are not something to be talked about as usually leads to arguments.

However are the Tories not evil? I have never ever seen anyone say they are not evil.

Tories belief that the State, should have minimal interference in the running of it's citizens life. That should be done by the private sector.

Now we know that means, a company owned by themselves or one of thier associates. I don't know about you, but I don't want to see the Police run by a unregulated private entity that's only answerable to its shareholders.

I did not like Labour in the 1990s but we are almost heading towards Medieval Fiefdoms only run by Corporations instead of Normans with the promise of automated tyranny...

As per the other thread what is your definition of a Tory? Is it an MP or a party member or someone that always votes for them or someone that mostly votes for them or someone that voted for them at the previous GE?

The tories are a bunch of lying,corrupt scumbags and yes they are evil

Does not really answer my question of what is the definition of Tories in this thread. I have voted Tory several times but won't be at next GE. Am I a classed as a Tory or do I have to be a party member or even an MP

My definition of tories is they are evil scumbags,that says it all

I'm trying to understand if I fit in that category as someone that has in the past voted Tory or to be in that category do I need to be a party member or do I need to be an MP

Did you agree with the decision to cut sick dying ppl off benefits?

Not sure if that means an MP, party member or voter. Can you just simply say which of those I have listed is your definition of a Tory

All,so do you agree with the desicion yes or no

So finally we learn that anyone from Tory MP to someone that has voted Tory is an evil scumbag. Presumably this includes all those that often vote Labour but voted Tory at the last GE. Not a single person is exempt from this. As for benefits it seems not as clear cut given what others have revealed about the policy and it's introduction. But in general I would say those who are entitled to benefits should get them. Those that are not should not get them. "

Yes you get it now so in my opinion all tories are scumbags as they back them ,the benefit question was about taking dying ppl of benefits and saying they are fit to work,do you agree with that?a yes or no will do

It was tory policy or they would not have done it,so do you agree with it?

so many assumptions, firstly anyone who challenges your incorrect interpretation of the facts is a tory voter, is probably the big one.

On the facts, no matter how clear and independent they are you still insist on siding with the click bait headline that fed you the wrong story, I cannot help with this any further and should have stopped an age ago. I never learn…..

And just an overall observation, I can understand more clearly why media outlets write misleading articles, they have an audience that will lap it up.

The guy said he was a tory voter,fact,that is your opinion of the facts and it suits your veiw ,ive gave 4 articles which i beleive wether you like it or mot

Who said he was a Tory voter?

Your articles are written by media selling stories, some don’t fact check and repurpose without care and others write misleading articles as they throw the sprat. Take your poison "

The guy i was replying too said he was a tory voter,im happy to beleive the written media,did you not post about articles written by the mail,the huffiting post earlier lol

Your a hard person to get a straight answer from,it was tories who had the policy and followed it threw,so again do you agree yes or no ?I asked which policy it was given these cases happened just after a change in government. Why are you so certain it's a Tory policy.

How can I answer if I agree with the policy if I don't know what the policy is ?

I've just read up on the story. Dec 2011 is the start point or the analysis. So a year into the coalition.

There also seemed some finger pointimg at Atos which could suggest it wasn't policy at all.

I am actually against benefits. I think unless you are sick, disabled out out of work you should not need them, because jobs should pay enough to survive.

It's actually in EVERYONE's interest for people to have a disposable income. Because the first thing people will do is spend it. Be it a holiday, a car, insurance for said car, a laptop, going out for a meal lots of companies benefitted from the supply trail and of course tax comes with this.

However the Government seem hell bent on only energy companies benefiting from us right now. Who's next, insurance companies? I just sometimes wonder if they whore us all out to the highest bidder to shaft us and I fear there is a long line.

. That is a truely bizarre comment to make . Sometimes in life it is best to look at the facts. We have a benefits system that helps everyone in need. There are in excess of 500,000 cars on the motability scheme , housing benefit is paid to those in need and the less well off elderly are entitled to a carers allowance in certain cases . In other cases people's income is topped up by universal credit . If you have less that a year to live there is an entitlement to additional benefit.

The government have done a great job of looking after the less well off in society for which we should all be very greatfull

The Torys will never be considered the party that looks after the less well off. Unless one of their friends, have fallen on hard times.

Quoting motability schemes is laughable. Because you need to be almost middle class to own a car nowadays. Imho.

If they looked after the least well off, why are there so many homeless on the streets nowadays?

It looks like you need to educaate eyourself on the benefits system and the help given to the less well off. There is no class distinction between who receives any benefit including mobility payments.

I think the point they're trying to make us that people who vote Tory don't want to hear any criticism of their chosen party. Either that or he's making the point that people who vote Tory don't have any empathy for fellow Brits.

I did not like Labour in the 1990s but we are almost heading towards Medieval Fiefdoms only run by Corporations instead of Normans with the promise of automated tyranny...

As per the other thread what is your definition of a Tory? Is it an MP or a party member or someone that always votes for them or someone that mostly votes for them or someone that voted for them at the previous GE?

The tories are a bunch of lying,corrupt scumbags and yes they are evil

Does not really answer my question of what is the definition of Tories in this thread. I have voted Tory several times but won't be at next GE. Am I a classed as a Tory or do I have to be a party member or even an MP

My definition of tories is they are evil scumbags,that says it all

I'm trying to understand if I fit in that category as someone that has in the past voted Tory or to be in that category do I need to be a party member or do I need to be an MP

Did you agree with the decision to cut sick dying ppl off benefits?

I would not agree that sick people should be taken off benefits, let alone dying people, why would I?

I was going down a rabbit hole with you, read the facts and make of it what you want and when you get to your conclusion, contact the correct party for an explanation

Ive read the facts from what seems reliable sources,im happy with that

Why would you be happy to settle with your 'reliable' sources when you're presented with a better source with offers further explanation?

That's strange thinking.

Because it fits his narrative.."

Did you agree with the decision to cut sick dying ppl off benefits?

Not sure if that means an MP, party member or voter. Can you just simply say which of those I have listed is your definition of a Tory

All,so do you agree with the desicion yes or no

So finally we learn that anyone from Tory MP to someone that has voted Tory is an evil scumbag. Presumably this includes all those that often vote Labour but voted Tory at the last GE. Not a single person is exempt from this. As for benefits it seems not as clear cut given what others have revealed about the policy and it's introduction. But in general I would say those who are entitled to benefits should get them. Those that are not should not get them.

Yes you get it now so in my opinion all tories are scumbags as they back them ,the benefit question was about taking dying ppl of benefits and saying they are fit to work,do you agree with that?a yes or no will do

I answered your question already. I disagree with calling all people who have voted Tory evil scumbags but that is your opinion which you are entitled too. Would you also call anyone who has voted Labour evil scumbags "

That wast the question it was do you agree it was ok to take dying ppl of benefits saying they are fit for work ?

Did you agree with the decision to cut sick dying ppl off benefits?was this because of Tory policy tho ? And if so what did they change on their first few months of (coalition) government?

It was tory policy or they would not have done it,so do you agree with it?thays not strictly true. Any policies labour had put in place would have continued until the Tories changed it.

On the face of it something looks wrong. I couldn't tell you if that was odd the back of a labour policy, Tory policy, or a company not doing what they were told to (and on which case, when did the oversight fail)

Your a hard person to get a straight answer from,it was tories who had the policy and followed it threw,so again do you agree yes or no ?I asked which policy it was given these cases happened just after a change in government. Why are you so certain it's a Tory policy.

How can I answer if I agree with the policy if I don't know what the policy is ?

I can say that what happens looks bad for someone and something has gone wrong. check google for deaths under ian duncan smithI've just read up on the story. Dec 2011 is the start point or the analysis. So a year into the coalition.

There also seemed some finger pointimg at Atos which could suggest it wasn't policy at all. "

If it wasnt policy then why did they go ahead with it

You provided the names of 3 newspapers and UK Parliament, you have shown any links as to where this information could be found, if you want people to check then you should provide links.

I'm happy to read a link from the Govt if you provide it. k honestly dont know how to share links,its on google deaths under ian duncan smith

The UK Parliament link using that search term is a petition. Not the UK Govts words. "

You shouldn't keep getting this so wrong, but somehow you do..

The fullfact I quoted used those outlets has examples of the media who had got their facts wrong and still reported them, which is where you got your information from.

Does that makes sense now?

"The government have done a great job of looking after the less well off in society for which we should all be very greatfull

The Torys will never be considered the party that looks after the less well off. Unless one of their friends, have fallen on hard times.

Quoting motability schemes is laughable. Because you need to be almost middle class to own a car nowadays. Imho.

If they looked after the least well off, why are there so many homeless on the streets nowadays?

It looks like you need to educaate eyourself on the benefits system and the help given to the less well off. There is no class distinction between who receives any benefit including mobility payments.

The irony of being told to "educate yourself" by a person who seems to use the Mail and Express as their main sources.

The higher rate mobility component of DLA is £280 a month."

The total benefit is circa £700 , non means tested and is in addition to other benefits . What relevance does the Daily Mail or Express have . Do you ever mix with or speak to the less well off in society

I'm happy to read a link from the Govt if you provide it. k honestly dont know how to share links,its on google deaths under ian duncan smith

The UK Parliament link using that search term is a petition. Not the UK Govts words. your right i mentioned the first few i seen,and what a out the other 3 do you think papers have given false information ?

This is harder than it really should be

So you dont want to answer? Nae probs

You should already know my answer.

If fullfact say those outlets printed false or misleading information them I'm going g to believe fullfact, as we all should. When I say all, I mean every single person interested in the actual truth. and il beleive in whats wrote in the media as im entitled too ,did you check fullfacts for the truth as i couldnt see any mention of ids on ff

You are of course entitled to believe whatever you choose. That doesn't mean what you belive is the truth "

You should take a look at critic magazine,tells you alot about fullfact being paid by facebook google and other big tech firms,independent my arse lol

"I know Politics are not something to be talked about as usually leads to arguments.

However are the Tories not evil? I have never ever seen anyone say they are not evil.

Tories belief that the State, should have minimal interference in the running of it's citizens life. That should be done by the private sector.

Now we know that means, a company owned by themselves or one of thier associates. I don't know about you, but I don't want to see the Police run by a unregulated private entity that's only answerable to its shareholders.

I did not like Labour in the 1990s but we are almost heading towards Medieval Fiefdoms only run by Corporations instead of Normans with the promise of automated tyranny...

As per the other thread what is your definition of a Tory? Is it an MP or a party member or someone that always votes for them or someone that mostly votes for them or someone that voted for them at the previous GE?

The tories are a bunch of lying,corrupt scumbags and yes they are evil

Does not really answer my question of what is the definition of Tories in this thread. I have voted Tory several times but won't be at next GE. Am I a classed as a Tory or do I have to be a party member or even an MP

My definition of tories is they are evil scumbags,that says it all

I'm trying to understand if I fit in that category as someone that has in the past voted Tory or to be in that category do I need to be a party member or do I need to be an MP

Did you agree with the decision to cut sick dying ppl off benefits?

I would not agree that sick people should be taken off benefits, let alone dying people, why would I?

I was going down a rabbit hole with you, read the facts and make of it what you want and when you get to your conclusion, contact the correct party for an explanation

Ive read the facts from what seems reliable sources,im happy with that

Why would you be happy to settle with your 'reliable' sources when you're presented with a better source with offers further explanation?

That's strange thinking.

Who says its a better source ?

Do you know what fullfact do?

Have you read any other source ?or just the one you beleive is better?

I take it you don't know what fullfact do then?

I think most (excluding delusional) people will agree that they are a far superior source than any newspaper, considering they exist for the sole reason to correct misleading stories.

What's not to like about a party which appeals to the greedy and ambitious elements in society?

Especially when the alternative sounds like a hard slog for no reward!

Tories have got it made as long as human nature stays this way.

human nature will always stay this way, lets be honest if you have the choice of making someone elses life better or making your own life better 95% of people will always sort them selves out rather than someone else,same goes with voting people vote for what is good for them not what might be good for other people
