Turning on Sky News to see them talking about how much tax the rich pay as a % of the total tax income. Sounds a lot, but i didn't notice them saying how much the rich earn as a % of the total national income.

Why can't we have politicians who think, let's do this for the good of our people, rather than those whose primary consideration is worrying about keeping their seats?

It's there something about Donald Trump's support that means not only does the party he backs lose the election, but the party leader also loses his seat?

Why can't he just say he lost? Icing on the cake, it's projected he'll even lose his own seat.

For a guy who likes gold so much, what is it about Trump that turns everything he turns into pyrite? The Conservative's had a 25% lead in the polls until the anti-Midas opened his mouth!
