The Kintyre Forum

This man should be Prime Minister in my opinion. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-30141159

Dennis Skinner is probably the greatest Prime Minister we've never had.

Whit? And what did Skinner do in the run-up to this INEVITABLE result? Circle his wagon way after the event, too flaming late, like the rest of the muppets. Every evil act and policy by Cameron has resulted in the disgusting creature Reckless getting in on a UKIP ticket but we also have to blame Labour for totally losing touch with their original values. We are desperately in need of a real opposition to counter the crap that's going on but name-calling AFTER you've allowed it to happen is not the way. Over the years I've very much enjoyed Skinner's antics and his stance for the working classes, but Prime Minister? Don't make me laugh.

With hindsight the Prime Minister comment was ill posted but I do admire what he had to say.No doubt you will post another sneering remark.

Roger, this is not a sneering remark but do you understand the concept of having a forum that invites people's different opinions?????????? Just asking.

Yes I do.Please accept my abject apology.

Mrs. Nesbit, does this mean you've hung up your duffle coat with your wee CND badge pinned on it ?

Well Roger, you're still getting detention. As I said earlier, there are many things I admire about Skinner but a leader he is definitely not - in my opinion! I am so angry at the way Labour have been conducting themselves lately instead of attacking - especially Milliband stating he the 'most furious' he has ever been about some woman's tweet instead of being 'most furious' about the economy, the rise of food banks, the state of the NHS, etc. etc. etc.

And Martin, my duffle coat was hung up years ago!!!

GG.I agree with you,I am devastated that this "Labour" party has managed to manoeuvre itself into a position where we are almost certainly going to get a Conservative dominated government next term.The arrogance of this so called labour metropoloitan elite is staggering.These Tories should and could have been practically wiped out at the next election if the labour party had taken on board the concerns of the electorate.Instead we have had the vacuum filled by UKIP who's policies include privatisation of the NHS (no, that doesn't get a lot of publicity!) What an absolute disgrace,in the first world war it was mostly Tory blimps who were the donkeys leading the lions,now it is the Labour leadership who are the donkeys offering no leadership at all.They are career poiticians looking out for themselves what a national disaster!

Absolutely spot on Lochend, brilliant post. So depressing. I heard Milliband this morning spouting on about what he is going to deliver; he couldn't deliver a bloody newspaper.

Although I am regretting my initial post at least it has started an intelligent political debate.The term"career politicians"is spot on.I have always held the belief that the majority of them are arrogant greedy egomaniacs.I was impressed with Skinners speech though.I have relatives who live in his constituency and they hold him in high regard for the good deeds he has done over the years.

mmm,where have you all been for the last 30 odd years,this is not news!The rot set in years back,and the general population were asleep at the wheel.I could go on but most of you are busy watching the telly or playing computer games to notice they stole your country, had you over, and now expect you to pay the bill.
Happy days pip pip.

Oh no! Who woke him up? Nurse! He is out of bed again!

Dennis Skinner has always been good for a rabble rousing speech.For a real nerve tingling speech look up Glenda Jackson in Parliament after Margaret thatcher's death.www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDtClJYJBj8

Nice one dodger,but the fact is i was spot on with my observations on the political elite and the paedo ring that surrounds them.Or are you still saying their only in it for the money? oops that's the victims not the baddies as we all know their only in it for the money.
