Birmingham Lib Dem - Conservative Alliance

When the Lib Dem's formed the coalition with the Tory's after the last General Election instead of the Labour party they said it was their duty to stand together with the largest party to ensure that we had a stable government and they were doing it for the good of the country.

In the recent local election in Birmingham the Tory's lost 6 seats making Labour the biggest party in the Council, when asked about the possibility of the Lib Dem forming a coalition with Labour the Lib Dem leader Insultingly compared the idea to that of Churchill teaming up with Hitler. What happened to their duty to stand with the largest party, and the good of the city. It looks as if they are still running scared from their Tory masters.

Phil after our recent experiences I really don't think any of our lying top three party's can ever be trusted again.
What we need is the old French idea. THE GUILLOTINE.

AND I KNOW JUST THE MAN.

Better still I know a young lady who could knock them back into line ( or into the middle of next week) with a pair of hammers.

Blimey Phil, you hate em that much

Yes I know, I'm a little ashamed of myself.

Phil

I should think so, they're only doing their jobs.

No not for thinking what I do about them, I'm ashamed that I'm only thinking about it and not putting it in to practice

Here we go with the old Hitler comparisons again, I don't like the Labour Party or anything they used to do, I say 'used to do' because I thought they were the best Conservative government we have had since Mrs Thatcher, but surely any politician who starts comparing living persons to Hitler should be defending themselves in court, it's an easy win for the prosecution. One is a lunatic mass murderer and the other, oh wait, I see his point.

I read somewhere that any argument or debate that uses a comparison to Hitler has ultimately failed. This is known as Godwin's Law.

"As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one." There is a tradition in many groups that, once this occurs, that thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress".

I don't see that as a valid argument. I know several people I would compare to Hitler (some I worked for) some I would use the term Hitler for openly and I wouldn't accept that I had lost any argument in saying so.

That is as may be but its amazing how many arguments do work around to someone being compared to Hitler. My wife swears I'm Adolph's son
