I don't think you need to be suspicious
they are lying and there is no way they can implement them. My issue with the Tories is that they say, if you work hard you can do well in a tory government. Which is true, but only if you start from a position of having stuff already, ifyou don't, you will forever be mired in shit for the whole of your life and you will blight the lives of your children and the cycle will continue.

I find the idea of theirs that if you aren't happy with your school you can set up your own disgraceful, you pay taxes in order for the government to provide schools, to run hospitals and to manage transport systems. I don't want to do it myself, but since these things do exist, they can clearly be run well and it's down to the government to ensure that they are run well everywhere. Surely not an impossible task?

Also the whole immigration cap bollocks really annoyed me.

interesting points
the schools thing is weird, and very much smells of their whole "under us you will have the choice and the opportunity to run things the way you think they should be"

clearly a bad idea. most people couldn't organise their way out of a wet paper bag

This is why I genuinely don't think democracy is that good an idea.
Ancient Athenian culture was ultimately undone by democracy - by the 4th and 3rd centuries BC demagogues would whip the populace up into knee-jerk stupid decisions which would then be reversed the next day by a different speaker with the opposite view. In the end nothing sensible ever got done and their society foundered.

Under strong leaders like Pericles they were a mighty force. 'The public' are fucking retards who do not know what's good for them.

This is why I am a committed Nazi.

That's why we have a parliamentary democracy
so you choose people to govern for a set period, then if you don't like it you change it after that period, but you have to give them a chance. Dismissing Democracy on the basis of Athenian culture is a silly viewpoint. But I realise I'm taking the internet too seriously here so yeah, shoot the cunts. Shoot them right in the cock and bumhole.

I had to shoehorn ancient Athenian democracy in, I'm afraid.
I don't know anything about the modern world.
