Tories briefing out “small business letter” that’s basically a petition that they’ve had on their website for weeks.

Must be Ed's cunning plan to confuse the SNP voters. Secret emails will be sent to all Labour voters, telling them to turn up a week later.IN less than a week’s time, Scotland faces a choice between two different paths. And we should be in no doubt that those two paths lead towards two very different futures.
You could be right but it doesn't say that.Tubby Isaacs wrote:Those details are presumably the email addresses, aren't they?

Nope. Nope. Nope. Ipswich and Thurrock were tory gains from labour in 87.Tubby Isaacs wrote:Ipswich? Thurrock?

A 4 way marginal would be very interesting indeed!
Anyone (except Anatoly who will definitely know this) name the three seats south of the 'wash to english channel' line outside London that Labour won in '83? Clue - Norwich South is one of them.
Yep. Bristol South, Oxford East and Norwich South were, I think, the only three Labour seats in the south outside of London in 87. (Utterly meaningless trivia that I picked up because I went to UEA and got involve with Norwich Labour Party in 1987, although I lived in Norwich North which stayed tory until 1997)Tubby Isaacs wrote:Yes, I know. Labour won them in 1983.
Bristol South was Labour in 1983 and 1987. Oxford East Labour in 1987, but not 1983.
It is a very good policy all round. The knock on effect of those homes being furnished and VAT taken etc... It will stimulate the economy, if the homes are there to buy.citizenJA wrote:A massive home building project will solve serious problems.

However I am not convinced this sort of thing is a vote winner. Most people don't actually want a new city dumped right next to them and I worry about environmental impacts. Plus there are a whole load of people with a vested interest in keeping house prices high (they are called the majority of the electorate). Also thanks to George (help to buy) Osborne if house prices drop we will have negative equity and the state will be liable for the loss on any repossessions.
Not saying we don't need houses but this probably won't be that popular electorally.
And, hopefully, stacks of insulation (wool, straw, cob, etc.,*) ground-source heating, solar water- and power-panels, all feeding into reliable Tesla home-battery-systems, and all leading to lower bills for the inhabitants, better energy security and lower carbon emissions for the whole country.AngryAsWell wrote:Its a lot of white goods, electrical goods, curtains, carpets, paint & wallpaper not to mention boilers & radiators as wellohsocynical wrote:That's also going to create a lot and I mean a lot of jobs which in turn will put money straight back into the economy plus widen the market for all the companies that make house building supplies.AngryAsWell wrote: Its a very big deal check out Sunny Hundal " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; for full details, more than just building...
