Autumn statement - economic stimulus

[BrilloPad]

You only have to look at the last two times labour were in power to see the low levels of competence and utter disaster that their activities achieve. Labour get into power by giving false hope and pandering to the politics of envy and class war. They do not have a bone of economic competence within them. They are also hopeless with their meddling of the tax system. it is far easier to fiddle taxes under one of their regimes than a Tory regime which is why I will probably vote for them

I have heard similar before - the city is supposed to like labour governments are there is more money floating round.

BBC News - Osborne: Autumn Statement cuts warnings 'hyperbolic' - Labour has said the government's deficit reduction targets were "all in tatters".

Very odd that they want (slightly)less deficit reduction than the Tories then.

I don't know since I'm not a Labour supporter. But I imagine some of the underlying principles of left-wing politics which we criticise on CUK, are the same things Labour supporters say are reasons why Labour are the ones who need to be in power.

I mean it's possible that they just want Labour in because they think they'll one day implement policies of a more leftist nature, but either way that would have little to do with the previous Labour government, which was centre-ish, as are the Tories.

Though maybe DA has hit upon a good reason for voting them in!
