Think again.
I've been in FT employment since I was 17 years old

Nobody knows as yet what each party will spend - Labour have committed to £450bn before any cost of re-nationalisation. All the Tories have done is take every pledge since 2017 and add them up. It is the same as Labour saying a deal with the US will cost £500m a week in extra cost of medicines.

Corbyn is suggesting McDonald's workers need to be paid £15 hour - so if you scale that up across the whole UK workforce how much will that cost!!

I would be very surprised if the Tories spending is not fully costed in their manifesto - if not its a huge mistake.

My concern is to Corbyn/McDonald/Lansman this is just a huge experiment and bit of a project

Virtually everyone at the BBC voted to remain - suggest the only agenda is to discredit Farage and the leave vote.

As for bias - anyone watch C4 news a more Labour supporting news program you will not view.

They didn't bother last time - they seem to have invested all their time and energy into costing the Labour one. Incorrectly.

Interesting reply, Sal.

I'm not arguing with what the Tories have done and that this STORY was dutifully slapped on the front page of every right leaning journal.
The issue is that, when asked if we could apply the same criteria to calculate Tory spending, they said NO, because it wouldn't be right to put a figure on their own spending before their manifesto was published (which will be just 2 weeks before the election).

If it is wrong to apply THE SAME criteria to their spending plans, it must be equally wrong to use that criteria (and then some) in the first instance.

I was ok with the wild calculation on one side, but they had to then use the same means to "test" their own mounting spending pledges.

The fact that the few Tory politicians that have been questioned about this have wiggled and writhed about like a freshly landed Haddock, I think, tells you how they have been found out (again). Lies, lies and more damn lies.

Much as Labour's "grand plan" will be hugely expensive, it would be prudent to wait and see just how much of their plan is to be considered for this Parliament, dont you think ?

Correct and they haven't yet produced a manifesto

Here is one Tory calling out his own party. Sadly most will look after number 1 and screw the country.

Former justice secretary David Gauke says a Conservative majority at the upcoming election would be a "bad outcome for the country".
Mr Gauke - who confirmed he will run as an independent in 12 December poll - was among the MPs expelled from the Tories by Boris Johnson after he voted against a no-deal Brexit.
He said a majority led by Mr Johnson would mean a "very hard Brexit".

If Boris gains a large majority either with Tories or part of a Brexit-con alliance, we WILL be leaving with no deal at the end of 2020, when we will be told that the nasty EU wouldn't agree the trading agreement in the allotted time.

It's quite strange how Boris tells us how quickly he can get things done but, they wont release the papers on Russian interference during UK elections/referendum.
Apparently, despite being almost finished, this will take 6 weeks to publish, coincidentally, just after we've had the election.
Any cynics out there may believe that there was something to hide.

McDonnell yesterday, "I want to be Chancellor of the Exchequer, but I want to live at home. I don't want No.11 to sit empty so we'll give it to someone who needs it...I'll still use part of it as an office but I don't want it to sit empty so we'll give (the vacant flat) it to a homeless family."

And then he tried to convince one lot of Scots he won't offer a second referendum...while later trying to appeal to the other lot by saying he will at some point.

And people trust Corbyn?

Completely agree - hopefully all sides will properly cost their spending plans - to not do would be a huge mistake.

Ashworth was once again destroyed by Andrew Neil last night as was the idiot from the SNP. If McDonald's aspiration is for an average 32 hour working week but that excludes the 1m employees in the NHS - two things then become obvious: Why would anyone want to work longer hours for the honour of working in the NHS and secondly some people will be working less hours if the average is to be maintained.

This is why I say Corbyn/McDonald/Lansman are playing a high stakes game - the ramifications of there policies have simply not been thought through. The £15/hr for workers at McDonalds!!

Hospital waiting times at worst-ever level

A vote for the conservatives is a vote against the nhs

Hospital performance in England is at its worst level on record, data shows.
Key targets for cancer, hospital care and A&E have been missed for over three years - with delays for hospital care and in A&E hitting their highest levels since both targets were introduced

Performance is not great - that's down to the likes of Hammond who everyone gave Boris a load of stick for getting rid of. He starved the NHS hopefully the Tories have learned a lesson - time will tell
