Labour run out of money and the Conservatives have to sort the mess out.
This New Labour government has wasted money, not reformed the public services, spins faster than anyone, and is borrowing £36 billion when the economy is doing well, what would the bill be if we faced a downturn, £100 billion!!!
The s**t is yet to hit the fan, most people cannot see the evidence of what a mess Gordo has got us in, he will probably win but then he can try and sort out his mess.
God I am angry this early of the morning!

I think is quite scary that people cannot see Brown for what he is, a sleazy fecking career politician; never had a job in the real world; now head of the most corrupt government of this century and the last! Gentle reminder he has been at the centre of the Liebour government that has been in power for the last ten yearsOriginally posted by gingerjedi View PostI never thought I would say it but as it stands I think Gordon is the safer bet, 'Green and socially conscious tories? Feck off.

But Gordon only has to continue building up debt, expand the money supply, extend cheap credit to the markets, and we can live a life of luxury on the back of ever soaring house prices.
Well, for another few years maybe.
Also, IR35 has been a bit hit and miss. Some better targeted legislation I'm sure and IT contracting can be made illegal, and we can all get non-jobs in the Public Sector, with solid gold final salary pensions thrown in.
And don't forget the War on Terror. Without Labour, the terrorists would have killed us all by now.
The Tories might stop immigration, and we won't have millions of people to look after us in our old age.

The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

I you believe they wouldn't have used the same lies?

Labour borrowed £22billion in 2002/03, before the war and this has increased every year since. In any case the war is not costing £40billion a year!Originally posted by Bagpuss View PostIraq forced the borrowing, of which I seem to remember the Tories supported at the time.

As has already been said, the Conservatives did support but this was on the basis that Bliar had told the truth."The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt.
