    We are in the shit because we are in too much debt. Yet the government's answer is to keep increasing that debt.

    Have I got the wrong end of the stick somewhere?
    Just keep voting Labour and we'll be fine.

    They still have music? I thought they just recycled the old stuff for teenagers who never heard it before.

    Gordon has his fingers in the till and with an election looming he is going on a spending spree and create more debt. If he cannot cut public spending when we need to, I see no hope of him ever cutting it. That means higher and higher taxes, but he will do anything for another few years of power. Keep voting for him!!
