1001 reasons NEVER to vote Labour

[stackpole]

They are wan kers.

That's good enough reason for me.

[zathras]

Of the approx 640,000 net increase in jobs under new labour.

For every 14 of them 13 were in the public sector. Approx 25% of the working population work in ways that rely totally on the government.

The number of jobs lost in areas such as manufacturing are greater than the number of jobs created in the private sector. If it was n't for the public sector jobs then unemployment would be going up (which it has has historically for every previous Labour Government)

[zathras]

We may indeed have had the longest period of growth however our current growth is worse than most of our major competitors and lower than it was when New Labour came to power.

Personal Bankruptcies are at record levels

Business Bankruptcies are at record levels

Repossessions at levels not seen since 1992

The number of people out of work in the UK rose by 72,000 in the three months to October to stand at 1.49 million.
That left the unemployment rate at 4.9%, up from 4.7% the month before, figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) showed.

The narrower measure of people out of work and claiming unemployment benefit, rose by 10,500 in November to 902,000.

It was the tenth month in a row that the claimant count figure has increased.


And this is AFTER they have massaged the figures, hidden them as invalids or in training or as too soon to count or as long term unemployed.

Of course the tories never massage the figures (YOP/YTS???)

or raised taxes (VAT????)

Or had blood on their hands (General Belgrano????)

They're all the same. Live with it.

Self interest rules OK - Especially on these boards.

Well said. I think that some people on this board would have no problem with Hitler if he just kept their tax down.

******* s*c**l*st!

It's not really to do with tax, my fluffy little friend.
It's to do with waste, lies, erosion of liberty and destruction of democracy.

[DimPrawn]

Feck me, the New Lie drones have woken up.

[DimPrawn]

It's to do with.

Nannying.
Dumbing down.
Political correctness.
Pointless knee jerk legislation and red tape.
Waste.
Inefficiency.
Spin.
Lies and deceit.
Tax, tax and more tax.
Blaming the rich for societies ills.
Politics of Envy.
Destruction of entrepreneuralism.
Big Brother state control.
Immigration with no controls.
The arrogance and slime of Phoney Bliar.
Sleeze, corruption and cover ups.
Multiculturalism bulltulip.
Erosion of freedoms and civil liberties.
Blame the motorist.
Destruction of manufacturing and service industries.
Friends of India, work permits and offshoring push by ministers.

Sense of scale is needed on this one. How many kids are hidden from the figures doing near impossible to fail a levels so that they can secure themselves a place on a media studies course prior to embarking on a career as a nappy co-ordinator in Tone's vote bank. How many are hidden on incapacity benefit? etc

or raised taxes (VAT????)

160 tax rises since NL came to power. We will not raise Income tax but will raise NI. Since NI is based on your income, how is that not an income tax.

Or had blood on their hands (General Belgrano????)

How many died on the Belgrano? It may or may not have been a justified target, but it was sank in the course of a LEGAL war. We are nuts deep in a war based largely on a students thesis NL ripped off the net.


They're all the same. Live with it.

Maybe they are all the same but I do not see why I should live with it.

And why shouldn't it. My first priority will always be to my family and me. NL Troll
