Marcus, I am not a labour supporter or anything. Just telling the simpletons that Labour wasn't responsible for people sitting on their arse and collecting benefits nor will the tories work miracles in that department.

We shall see!

It’s too early to make speculations as to the efficacy of their policies!

M,

I see a new Tony blair in this guy

WHATS A PRIME MINISTER

A PM is the head of a government and its political leader mostly in a monarchy wherein a king or a queen the head of state is. Alot of repuclics also have a PM and a President, like somalia and italy, he's therein also the most senior minister. A PM has way more power than a Vice president

I dont particularly like Brown looks, but i do think he is a genuine, idealistic person. (by his guff on the brit biggot mishap) I think he truly is the unsung hero or Obama version of cadaan who looks like a yuhud. Unfortunate, genetics i would say.

The Conservatives and Lib Dem?!

Can it get any worse?

Mad athiest....it seems like they were both united in the mision to bring brown down!

@atheist

yeah, i know..but it's the lib dems that are getting the short straw.. a shame really (yup, i support lib dem )

as a student labour would be better, but as a Somali i think we need a push off the sofa.






horta, why are Americans so dumb, something in their food or water ?

Labour has the worste history on students prior to Blair Uni education was free and grants were being offered to cover for living costs.
Blair in 1998 introduced the student loan and gradualy the tuition fee loan and if they contiuned in power the tution fee would have been raised to 7K - 10K while students would be enticed to getting into further debts by enticements on students loans lower interest rates and deals.

In other words the system was starting to resemble the American education system of funding students where by 'loan shacks' would go to institutions offering finacial aid packets that would be of high cost in the future.

Libdem are looking into helping the poor be given the opportunity to progress Somalis being one since they live in poor neigbourhoods where from elementary to high school there is nothing called education apart from kids going to school and waste time in an environment they benefit less from since the teachers provide no support.

Conservatives also are in the interest of students.

Labouur brought the recession and they departed with it.

One thing though if Gordon Brown was English he would have won the election.
This is what cadan do preach water and drink win.

as i understood it the conservatives wants student loans back faster, they will shorten the schedulled time for back payment to force extra interest money out of poor students. Also plans to increase tuition fees, reduce grants and education maintenance allowance is all conservative ideas.

if you tell me this is not true and i misunderstood something, please provide evidence because i will be glad to agree with you.

btw, liberal democrats are not too realistic and as it shows they are not reliable either, even their partner in government today was known to say Nick Clegg is a Joke. the liberal democrats lost seats in parliament for Gods sake and to add insult to injury they joined the most anti-liberal party backstabing those who voted for them, many students will go labour after this lol.

there are lots of naive people who actually believe conservatives are good for Somalis, i am one of them.

im sure many people will lose their jobs in the transport sector for instance and also other places in the public sector, but the far larger majority of Somalis who are unemployed will feel the heat the most, a healthy slap to the face lol.

Whats that suppose to mean.
David Cameron got the most votes yet he's not English.

This isn't Somali politics were people vote for leaders based on their qabiil

David Cameron (Scottish) and Gordon Brown (Scottish) are not English, it has nothing to do with where they originate from, that’s Somali political custom they have. But rather, it was the end road for Gordon, though his not the first person to become prime minister without general election, that man had no charisma, no leadership skills. and though he done so much to reform the Britain's monetary, (he is the longest-serving Chancellor ever) he changed British finance as we know, he gave the British banks the face lift it needed, (he made Bank of England independent) but he was 1) not a good prime minister, simple as. 2) The whole credit crunch thing caught up with him, and he couldn’t do much about it in the time given, I think any prime minister who was in power when the credit crunch happen would lose the election. People are angry and is their nature to blame anyone they can. He just happens to be there, the right place but wrong time. 3) add the credit crunch with flood of immigrants especially from Eastern Europe + wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, (the bloody papers screaming we lost our sons on unnecessary wars and poor equipment daily), job losses, people are pissed off, they think Gordon made a mess of the country, see but it wasn’t Gordon Brown that made the mess, it was Tony Blair, but he was smart enough to nip out just in the right time, in fact I believe if we give Gordon a chance, 2nd term as elected prime minster, he would turn around the British economy, that would ease everything else out. The wars, immigration, job losses, the NHS etc etc. I still cant see better person for this job, there is no better man to lead Britain today.

Nonsense. Making cuts already implies that the market will be full to saturation point with unemployed people (clever, qualified and experienced unemployed people). To then assume that the Tories will somehow magically be able to force the long term unemployed (lost, unqualified and inexperienced unemployed) back into work is crazy. Furthermore, this is not really a Tory government, is it?

this government couldn't be more tory, the liberals stabbed themselves in the heart and fell into the hands of the conservatives leaving them to make all relevant decisions, yes you will hear the odd squeak from the liberals but nothing of substance. i dont even think they can make a comeback after what they have done to their voters lol.

welfare will also be cut or at the very least they will scrutinize you, so even if you cant find a job you will be forced into useless training programs, temporary support schemes and what ever else they have up their sleeve. this is what i meant by "a healthy slap to the face" and "lol".
