    Over the last ten years I’ve lived in a van, waited on NHS waiting lists for longer than 12 months whilst I bled from the arse, had an abscess rot my jaw away and had the pleasure of paying a landlord £1K a month for a shitty and freezing cold flat. All this for someone that’s never been unemployed from the age of 16.

    Safety nets? Away with your pish.

      And if you think cutting taxes will make it better then you’re hopeless.

      An extra 100£ per month wouldn’t have stopped your ass from bleeding or fixed your abscess, but cutting taxes will mean that it will take even longer to get the services that already take too long to get.

      People like you never win when taxes are cut, but people like you are also gullible enough to believe conservatives when they tell them cutting taxes will improve their life.

        You can’t blame someone for being disenfranchised after being in a lose/lose situation the last ten years.
