Default How two faced?

Yesterday TB got up on his soap box and accused the Tories of opportunism following their announcement that they would stop the house re-branding process and review council taxes.

So what have NL announced today??

Now if that isn't a case of "Oh sh*t, we've been out done, never mind just come up with an even bigger lie to counter it" I don't know what is.

The Labour Party have never been fans of the Council Tax but have considered an alternative a low priority. If they win I doubt any replacement would get any further than the planning stage during the next government anyway. Is it a lie? It's probably a selective rendering of the truth.

You can be sure that whatever they replaced it with we would still all be *worse* off.

They need more and more of our cash to finance their endlessly profligate mismanagement.

Not all of us would roll over and take it up the a$$ for another 5 years. Some people are prepared to keep shouting until something happens, either somebody else gets in or NL buck their ideas up.

What I always fail to understand is why TB insists on using the word "opportunism" as his favourite insult / put-down. Surely trying to get the benefit from opportunities can be a good thing? Realising opportunities in some form or another is part of every successful enterprise.

Admittedly, that's far from the only thing BLiar says that I fail to understand.

Its one of his favourite methods and its the only defence he can think of, as well as trying to make us think that he does not use it himself.
