    how do you know few are students?

    and even if you were right, so what? do you think people should only disagree when some unfair policy affects you directly and not feel solidarity with those affected?

    sure, it is all paid for by taxes, well done

    the whole point of "free" education and health etc is that it is available to all who need it, not just those who can afford it

    for instance, there are many scientists who have contributed to the Uk who came from working class backgrounds. Probably they would have wasted their talents without "free" education
    I have reported your post

    The scum that attacked the royal car should have been shot. Yes, with live fire. Democracy does not permit rioters to threaten the royal family. If the same thing happened in this 'uncivilised' country there would have been dead bodies everywhere. This is because Thais respect their royal family. Could it be that the Thais have balls while the mother of Western democracy has caved in to complacency?

    Best solution for the poor downtrodden that want everything subsidised without figuring out that someone has to pay for it, is to expel those identified as rioters. Then they can join their mates on the dole for free lifelong care.

    Fcuking shits, no wonder they get so much support from TD termites.

    Here is an analogy for you.
    Imagine a family where everyone is working but nobody has a driving licence.
    They pool their money to buy a Rolls Royce.
    They build a nice new garage to house it.
    Every year they service it, pay the road tax, and keep it clean.

    Many years later only the man of the house is working.
    Everyone else is relying on his money.
    They are scrimping on food
    They have given up on healthcare, except for the wage earner.
    They have no holidays
    They still have the Rolls Royce
    It has zero miles on the clock
    It is still taxed
    It has a full service history
    The entire family takes turns cleaning it
    Nobody dreams of selling it because it helps convince the neighbours they are important people


    The UK is the family
    Trident is the Rolls Royce.

    Yep, you would keep the Rolls Royce, I can see that.

    Haven't you just confirmed your own bullshit?

    If as you say a politician broke his promise, does this make it ok to riot, and also to threaten the future King? Should Charles be shackled in Parliament Square so that every time a politician fcuks up the people can vent their spleen against him? Get real!

    You could do worse than start by figuring there's no such thing as free education or free anything else. It may be free to the beneficiary, but it's being paid for by others as a privilege not a god-given right.

    They weren't voted in to take overall power, so how can they keep their promises. They're the minority of a coalition, so compromises have to be made.

    this is what happens when you vote for the Conservative scums,

    the Liberal Party has proved to be a bunch of pussy, all talk, no action, typically British

    it doesn't have to be, only silly reactions from the government like we are seeing now will make things worse

    The Liberals know that everything will be fine once the Conservatives let them have Proportional Representation.

    I have to agree the previous labour government has fucked things up. By allowing virtual mass immigration in an attempt to skew voting demographics in their favour, they've lead to a big influx of money out of the country.

    And they've also created so many useless and unneccessary public sector jobs that measures like education fees have to be introduced to pay for them.

    They have squandered public money, yet these soap dodgers are too clueless to see it.

    It's good that councils are being forced to scrap these pointless positions by the bucketload, they don't serve any useful purpose and they are a drain on the economy.

    I would prefer, for example, rather than having to create Bengali speaking positions to service a ghetto full of miserable South Asians, to not let the useless, self-serving c*nts immigrate in the first place.

    Anyone who tells me these bastards contribute to our "way of life" in any way, shape or form are talking out of their arses. But they'll vote Labour, that's for sure.

    A good start.

    One thing I would say is that there are a shortage of specialist skills in certain areas. Why not make those degrees free and let the students pay for the Mickey Mouse degrees like 'David Beckham Studies'?

    An outright lie? Well answer it then, explain why it's an outright lie instead of calling it bullshit and hoping to leave it at that.

    Or do you feel it makes you look good enough just to call it bullshit?

    No problems with that. Perhaps classing certain degrees as "occupational degrees" (free)and others as "recreational" (you pay).

    Yes, yes, yes, but that's politically incorrect and you leave yourself open to charges of bigotry or worse, racism!

    But what did Labour do wrong? Nothing. If you were an ideologically driven leftard, wouldn't you happily open the gates to low end immigrants knowing that they'll be voting for you, and that they spawn like fish which will grow up with the same benefits mentality to vote for your successors?

    That's precisely what Labour did. They gave away the country to demonstrated how tolerant they were, traded the future for short term power, disembowelled the hopes of millions in the name of multiculturalism, and when the game was up and they were finally kicked out, they left with a smile and a shrug protesting that the voters didn't understand.

    Western democracy is doomed by its own short-sightedness, and its commitment to an unsustainable drain on resources. Meanwhile, all looks rosy as long as the printing presses keep right on humming.

    Perhaps you are right because after all not 100% of the poor downtrodden want everything subsidised, many want it free.

    But go on, explain why it is an outright lie to say that free education is not free because someone has to pay for it, just as free housing, health, dole and everything else has to be paid for.
