Gordon will win the next election if good people stand idly by.
Vote or forget about complaining.

I would like see how much damage UKIP have done in the marginal seats, I still think the recent slump in Tory % is down to the Lisbon back-peddling.Leave a comment:

You make it sound as though the Credit Crunch only affected the UK!Originally posted by minestrone View Post
Don't get me wrong, NuLab have damaged this country, but most people think the Tories would have carried out the same policies (in fact in 2007 they were calling for MORE deregulation).
I still think the Tories should win the next election, but they're making it difficult for themselves - perhaps they don't want to win it????
It's a contradiction, but Labour may gain a lot of votes for carrying out the policies that are damaging us long-term. In contrast to other countries, house prices have held up in many areas (thx to all that QE and money generally squandered). We won't have a genuine recovery until house prices revert to their long term average. Until that point the sector is sucking all the productive money out of the economy. That's why the continent will pull out of the recession before we will, despite the so-called "strength" of the Euro. Yet UK voters will be personally hoping that house prices stay up, and may thus vote Labour. The converse is also true - if the Tories really do get a grip on finances, then house prices will initially slump. A lot of home-owners will fear this. Fear will be the key to the next election.
As for the two wars - it's a just a symptom of the UK being the US's poodle. I'm afraid Dave (or William Hague) would have done no different.Leave a comment:

When are Labour going to be punished for their failure?
Presided over economic failure, went to war twice for no reason...
