New Labour:
Reduction of civil liberties
Huge growing tax burden
Mushrooming of the public sector and civil servants
Destruction of family values and encouraging single parent families
Using Human Rights laws to protect terrorists and criminals whilst ignoring the needs of victims and law abiding.
Attacks on small business and entrepeneurs
Encouraging uncontrolled immigration, especially non-EU. Zero border controls and zero effort to root out illegals and deport them
Emphasis on victimising motorists
Keeping the poor poor and dependant on state handouts.
Nanny state mentality with thousands of pieces of disjointed and poorly drafted legislation.
Conservatives fundamentally do not believe in and will not follow this path.
It's up to you at the end of day. If you want to carry on in the fashion of the last 11 years, then don't vote Conservative.

I really don’t see much chance of change and recovery until there is a serious collapse in the economy.

No, there's clear water between their core principles. Two problems though - Tories can't develop and sell their own good ideas because NL will simply adopt them as their own (as they already have done, of course) and Cameron has to hold a public persona he may not actually believe in in order to win over Joe Sunreader, who is the real driver at the next election.
Plus, of course, the finances are in such a total mess and the NL legacy so deeply damaging that there is no room for manoeuvre in core policies, so we're stuck with the NL approach for a while to come.

It is shedding support on all fronts, including to the Conservatives, who are on 41%, two points up on last month's Guardian/ICM poll.
Labour support, at 27%, has fallen seven points in the space of a month and is the lowest ever recorded in the Guardian/ICM series, which began in 1984.

My only regret is that Blair didn't stick around to face the music and have to deal with the humiliatoin of loosing to the tories.

Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostThere may be some useful tinkering around the edges, but that is as much as can be hoped for
It's hard to see how public spending could be tackled without creating high unemployment. How for example can you undo paying a GP something like an eight and a quarter of a million pounds a year? Can't be undone. The only solution may be to rip off the poor and increase immigration, i.e. continue with labour policy.

(and knowing Gordo's luck, polling day is the day before fortnightly bin collection day)
