and the damage caused by the
Blair administration (over-regulation,
pension-fund raiding, government-sector
over-manning) will take another decade to show
through in lower productivity, wealth and living standards.

Damage? The longest rate of economic growth in history. And this
turkey
says Thatcher did it. Please get help.


I doubt that there will be many (self respecting) political
historians who will disagree with "Cenfus", economic growth is not
like a tungsten light bulb being switched on - more like a sodium
bulb - a dim glimmer of light slowly develops into a bright light
over time. You might be right in your suggestion that it wasn't the
economic policy put in place by Thatcher that has caused the present
economic growth but *will* have been that put in place by Mayor. All
the present Government has done is spend the wealth generated from
it... Time will tell if this administration has been economically
successful in their own right.
