There must be a way of removing parasites from this forum. Which reminds me of this clip. The ol number 6.

Sorted. They’ve found an idiot who automatically generates a hundred Swinecunt posts every week. Bordo Eradication Services.

So much for Tiny Fishi intending to lead with integrity and he makes his donor a Lord. Nice innit?

There’s nothing new under the sun. The Swine in Swineland have been doing it for over a century:

Ahh. Just so we get it straight. You’re talking about the population of Britain. Not, as you’ve frequently claimed, the Conservative Party. “You can’t understand English”. From you. :lol:

What’s the matter? Things slow with the slagging off the UK stuff today? :roll:

Who exactly are the Whigs? You may well ask.
The Whigs were a political party in the Parliaments of England, Scotland, Ireland, Great Britain and the United Kingdom. Between the 1680s and the 1850s, the Whigs contested power with their rivals, the Tories

You mean to tell me the Swine were a party in 1680?
But what about British Democracy?
Second Reform Act, 1867
In 1866, all voters had to be male adults over 21 years of age. The right to vote was still based upon a property qualification.

By the early 1860s around 1.43 million could vote out of a total population of 30 million.

In 1867, the Conservative government introduced the Parliamentary Reform Act. This increased the electorate to almost 2.5 million.

The most important change was the granting of the vote to occupiers in the boroughs (people who rented properties rather than owning them) and, as a result, the electorate in some of the newer towns in England and Scotland increased dramatically.

However, the Act did not alter the balance of political power in Britain. The middle classes still dominated the electorate in both towns and boroughs.

Third Reform Act, 1884
By the 1880s it was widely recognised that voters in counties deserved the same political rights as those in the boroughs. This led to the 1884 Parliamentary Reform Act:
the Act created a uniform franchise for both county and borough
it applied to the United Kingdom as a whole
it enfranchised a significant number of voters
approximately two in three men now had the vote - almost 18 per cent of the total population
however, plural voting was permitted (whereby a man could have more than one vote in certain circumstances)

Representation of the People Act, 1918
In June 1917 the House of Commons passed the Representation of the People Act. The following year the Act was approved by the House of Lords and became law.

By 1918 there was a general feeling that the horrors of World War One had to be for something positive. Many men returning from war would not be able to vote under the 1884 laws.
The Representation of the People Act gave the vote to all men over 21, whether they owned property or not.

The act gave the vote to women over the age of 30 who met a property qualification, or whose husband did. This represented 8.5 million women - two thirds of the total population of women in the UK.

Representation of the People Act, 1928
In 1928 women were finally given the franchise on the same terms as men. All adults over 21 could vote.

So in 1914 many men went to war for the Swine but they were not allowed to vote.

Enough history lesson for today.

Just in case you were fooled by the Swine claim that we have had 900 years of democracy. I guess 900 years ago Britain were about 0.0001 % democratic. So it must count as democratic right?

I don't know if I can forgive myself. I missed the boat race again.

What a shame with all these parents who chose to send their children to a private school. Never mind VAT they should pay tax on their profits. How private schools and hospitals get a charity status is beyond belief.

Before 1997 UK pensioners could get tax relief on payments made for health insurance.

Purely for reasons of dogma the new Blair government legislated to end it. The result was, it threw 120,000 old people into the NHS at a stroke. Private healthcare continues to this day but only for those rich enough to afford it. That's exactly what will happen with private education. Ordinary people, who want to sacrifice income to do the best for their children, will instead be forced to send them to "Bog standard comprehensives" (Alaistair Campbell - New Labour Political Propaganda Commissar).

It won't of course stop people like Diane Abbott sending her kid to a private school, whilst campaigning and voting to abolish it for others, Absolutely typical "Socialist" hyprocrisy.
