Labour shills out in force.

I've just been reading the item on the Times website: Alistair Darling rules out VAT rise in ‘sensible, workmanlike’ Budget

The comments are a hoot

I may be daft, but for some reason I feel that our future finance as a country is much safer in Labour hands.

Cameron will say whatever he can to get into power.

This is so blatantly a Labour shill operation. The really sad thing is, it works; the UK electorate ARE stupid enough to fall for it.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of those pro-Labour comments were from Times staffers themselves.

The Times is notoriously left-leaning and pro-Labour these days.

The Tory shills are not available to reply to it, because they are all over at the Guardian.

So your contention is that any pro-Labour comments on a website are shilling from party hacks and as a result of reading them, people will vote Labour? What proposals do you have to sort this problem out?

I propose a validation tick box on all comments pages, with the text
'I confirm I am not a full Shilling'

Labour voters are indeed stupid enough to fall for this whereas Tory voters are not.

This never happened under the tories. Of course, no-one had the interweb back then.
