Quote from: muddy on Today at 07:39:03 AMIt was the one and only time I voted Lib Dem .
To my shame I did after Heath was incapable of defeating Scargil. Not that I had a clue how to either. I have tried to forget that.

My son and grandson have been staying, grandson is looking at universities and Sheffield is high on his list.  They have an excellent rep for engineering which is what he wants.  Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 he gets the necessary grades.

She told Ethel not to get any ideas
He was always like that when he'd had a few beers
She dragged him off home
So poor Ethel's alone

Quote from: muddy on Today at 07:39:03 AMThey did  I voted for the Lib Dem's when Nick Clegg was leader and he didn't do much else but stop George Osbourne from raising the inheritance tax limit that has been frozen now for nearly 20 years despite the massive rise in property prices .
Then he legged it to the states to make his squillions .
It was the one and only time I voted Lib Dem .

He lost his seat here because the constituency (mooted as one of the wealthiest in England outside London) has lots of academics and students and he voted with the Tories for an increase in tuition fees.  It's been Labour since then.

Ethel went to the shop to get some bread
But ended up going to the pub instead
There she met a man named Andy
Who was well gone after drinking Brandy
Till his missus clipped him sharp round the head.


She told Ethel not get any ideas
As he was always like that when he'd had a few beers

Oddly I think it was probably the LibDems on the coalition who got it raised substantially from a pretty low start level at the time.
