    I still don't get why the public are not revolting over the £37 billion on t'n't. That's £36,950,000,000 more than they needed.

      I don't know if it's really old people. It's people who can't be bothered to think for themselves, think people they don't like being upset is funny and want to benefit from corruption too. I know people who vote Tory because they genuinely believe people like Boris is the sort of image that made Britain great. They think the corruption is a labour invention and that the biggest problem is nobody giving 'Boris' a chance.. You can tell them as much as you want and they'll say stuff like "You've been on biased internet sites" and dismiss any evidence as propaganda. Last week I was hearing "We had parties too" and now they're punching the air because the Tories are shipping slaves to Africa. Someone told me "It's reparations" as a joke last night..
