    We need another John Major without the 'Bastards'.
    or the cones hotline

    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!

    As has already been said, the Conservatives did support but this was on the basis that Bliar had told the truth.

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

    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!

    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.

    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 years

    You already do. The only bit missing is that you dont sort the country out
