Dear David, I am stunned that given this country’s current predicament, of 13 years of total mismanagement, promises upon broken promises and the HIGHEST ever tax burden on the individual your rant of achievement beggars believe.
To all on this blog who believe the Labour government has done a great job look at the facts!
Debt from £6 billion in 1997 to £168 billion now, Liam Byrne’s reason for this being good is interest rates are low therefore its manageable, this is incompetent at best and dangerous at worst! Interest rates will rise fact! Work out the numbers for yourself, bankrupts go bust because they borrow too much and cannot payback when times get tough, bankrupts happen even when the individual is in work. Greece is bust yet our debt rate is the same as theirs GB response is to forget cutting spending but keep borrowing! Raise NI contributions on everyone and keep emploting in the civil service 100’s of thousands of people who generate not one penny of profit for the country but take money from the country and we in profit making private companies are tax to hell and back! INCOMPETANCE!
I could list failure upon failure of this Government but it would be boring.
However, the most poisoned action was to fail in delivering PR to national elections as promised in 97, to allow a creation of imbalance with Scotland and Wales and EU election leaving English constituents feeling disenfranchised!
In 2005 the Tories won 50k more votes in English seats yet the Labour party won 92 more Englisg seats than the Tories, clearly the Labour party has no mandate for the English part of the Great Britain.
Role on May 6th and rollover Gordon, Jeremy Clarkson was right in his Aussie assessment! Scottish, one eyed and an idiot!
