Default I'm Voting For Gordon - We need want Prosperity

All Labour have to do is tell the facts about their record, which is superb.
The Hurray Henry Tories shadow cabinet are all from the same few schools.

The best we have had is Blair/Brown. They took the country from a basket
case under the Tories into one of the world's strongest economies. The pound
was the world strongest currency for about 10 years. Constitutionally they
got rid of hereditary Lords. The average person has little idea of what this
means - it paves the way to Land Value Taxation and a more truer democracy.
Also the zero unemployment with over a million migrant workers to fuel the
booming economy.

Under Blair/Brown since 1997. Magnificent Facts.......

* The UK had the longest sustained economic growth in history.
* The UK economy has been the world's most robust.
* The pound has been almighty strong.
* 9/11 caused a recession in most of the western world. It never happened
here.
* Massive investment in schools and unis. More schools were built under them
than at any other time.
* Massive investment in health. More hospitals were built under them than at
any other time.
* Provincial cities have boomed with their skylines changing beyond belief.
* Some superb anti-social laws have been implemented. The parents are now
made responsible for their children's conduct.
* The country even absorbed over 1 million eastern Europeans and still not
have an unemployment problem.
* Hereditary peers abolished - the biggest constitutional change since the
1600s, removing a self-interst group of large land owners, paving the way
for Land Value Taxation.
* Provincial cities went on massive building programmes - look at the
skyscrapers in Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham.
* Rail infrastructure is being greatly improved - electrification projects.
Tram schemes in many cities. High Speed Rail Networks are planned.
* etc.

The Tories have no intention of changing the current privileged ruling class
Eton/Harrow/Oxbridge system. They are just shuffling deckchairs on the
Titanic.

Look at the appalling Tory record:

* Cardboard cities - and they didn't care, blaming the victims
* Mass unemployment - Horrendous levels.
* Devastation of industry - One fifth of industry went under Thatcher and
Major.
* Devastation of economic growth creating infrastructure - It was
privatized. E.g., Thatcher said the railways and mines were losing money.
They were not as they were a part of the wealth creating process. She was so
dumb her and her party could not see that.
* Private Profit and Socialised Debts - Thatcher privatized the rail tracks
creating Railtrack and of course it went bust having to be replaced by a
Network Rail and non-profit organisation setup by Tony Blair. Small
investors were ripped off and taxpayer picking up the bill yet again.
privatized profits and socialized debts when they have creamed off and ran.
* North Sea Oil Wasted - A total wasting of the greatest legacy left to us -
North Sea Oil. The revenue from the oil was not invested into the country,
in education, training and industry, just used for dole money in failed
economic theories.
* Failed Economic Theories -Implementing the silly Thatcher neo-capitalism
that was bound to fail and did with the Credit Crunch.
* etc
* etc
* etc

Within months of Blair coming to power the cardboard cities were gone. Only
when the world-wide Credit Crunch came in from abroad did it stall. Brown
put together the world-wide rescue plan at the G20 meeting in London.

In these difficult economic times we need hard nosed experience to steer us
out with Brown having that. We do not need a bunch of Hurray Henry's all
from a few schools - like they have in banana republics.

consequences for both individual's pensions and investment. Nearly all final
schemes have since closed, finsihing off what was the finest scheme in the world
and transferred a huge future liability to the State. Oh and all this was done

Hi Group

When it is announced that the rich have got richer and the poor got poorer,
it is time for this so-called Labour government to go. I think they should
be called New Tories not New Labour.

What a laugh. Reading the sycophants. The country was full of cardboard

Good. He is learning.

Constitutionally they got rid of hereditary Lords. The average person


or not, half arsed as usual.


66 were thrown out.

has little idea of what this means - it paves the way to Land Value


It means a reduction in the quality of scrutiny of legislation.


The House of (land)Lords was put there in 1688 so large landowners could
control the commons. A self interest group. Brown wants it half the size
and democratic. Do we need this chamber at all? No.

Taxation and a more truer democracy. Also the zero unemployment with over
a million migrant workers to fuel the booming economy.


You make even less economic sense than the BNP.


FACT is FACT. ZERO unemployment and 1 million workers to fill the gap, they
were so good.

Under Blair/Brown since 1997. Magnificent Facts.......

* The UK had the longest sustained economic growth in history.


Created by the previous Tory administration, finally shagged by labour.


What an idiot!! What world has he been in?
Again.. "The UK had the longest sustained economic growth in history under
Labour" FACT!!!! You can't buff an economy for 11 years!!!

The Credit Crunch tidal wave came from abroad not Brown. FACT!!!
Labour inherited a basket case for the Tories - mass unemployment, riots,
etc. FACT!!!!

* The UK economy has been the world's most robust.


Slipped from one of top places to do business in the world to something
like the 30th.


What stupid comment and spurious fact. Still the worlds 4th largest
economy FACT!!!

* The pound has been almighty strong.


Fallen against most other currencies.


After The Credit Crunch that came in from abroad.

* 9/11 caused a recession in most of the western world. It never happened
here.


Where have you been the last few years?


Again, "9/11 caused a recession in most of the western world. It never
happened here".The UK economy was so strong. Only a world-wide Credit Crunch
took the whole world.

* Massive investment in schools and unis. More schools were built under
them than at any other time.


Devaluation of university qualifications


Opinionated nonsense!!!! Standards are high.

Elitism is good


Only sycophants think like that. It creates division and the best do not
through and it suppresses a meritocracy. FACT!!!

* Massive investment in health. More hospitals were built under them than
at any other time.


and we have still got a third world health system...


Opinionated clap-trap. The USA are copying our system it is so good. FACT!!!

* Provincial cities have boomed with their skylines changing beyond
belief.


The luftwaffe managed that, hardly a compliment.


Stupid comment by a sycophant.

* Some superb anti-social laws have been implemented. The parents are


Much about this government is anti-social.


Stupid opinionated off-topic clap-trap

now made responsible for their children's conduct.


Hardly.


They are!! FACT!! The parents are in court if the children offend. FACT!!!

* The country even absorbed over 1 million eastern Europeans and still
not have an unemployment problem.


Unless you include the unemployment problem.


Again, "and still not have an unemployment problem". FACT!!!!

* Hereditary peers abolished - the biggest constitutional change since
the 1600s, removing a self-interst group of large land owners, paving the
way for Land Value Taxation.


You seem to be repeating yourself.


Did you get it first time? Pay attention.

Within months of Blair coming to power the cardboard cities were gone.
Only when the world-wide Credit Crunch came in from abroad did it stall.
Brown put together the world-wide rescue plan at the G20 meeting in
London.


Bwahahahah... Brown would have trouble putting together a sentence.


What I wrote was FACT!!! Yours was stupid opinionated clap-trap.

The most successful government in modern times is the Blair/Brown
government.
FACT!!! FACT!!! FACT!!!!

Please pay attention the FACTS I gave were from 1997 to the world-wide tidal

You missed it. The poorer are richer - far more. The difference between is
wider. All boats, rich and poor rise on the same rising tide.

We could all be richer if we adopted Land Value Taxation, which Hong Kong
and Singapore use to great economic success. That is what we need . The Labs
and Libs have LVT presure groups. The Tories? NONE!

Having been in the Army under Eton educated officers I could not vote for
a gang of useless twits who were almost incapeable of looking after

That is my experience of the twits. I have worked with many of them. The
shadow cabinet is literally public schoolie twits. In this day and age - the
21st Century? People want them to rule us?

If the Thatcher/Blair years have taught us anything, it should be that a
hung parliament is the way to go. Let them squabble and horse trade for a
few years so that they can't actually change anything.


There is something in that. A Lab/Lib pact will stop the Tories doing
further harm. Their first acts will be to cut public spending which harms
the poor and reduce inheritance tax for the rich. And people vote for them?
We need people with experience who have been there and done it. Brown was
the longest serving chancellor in history...and the most successful in the
flawed economic model the western world use.

Lab will give hard nosed economic experience and LibDems push through
election and constitution reform. A good combination.

Personally it is best to vote Labour and get Brown back to pulling us out of
the Credit Crunch. Labours record is impeccable indeed. That experience
and record cannot be thrown away. Labour did say they would introduce
election reform. Of all those eligible to vote only about 25% only ever
voted for Thatcher, yet she had total control and was devastating in her
recklessness creating mass poverty. A clear case of the minority controlling
the majority.

If the Thatcher/Blair years have taught us anything, it should be that a
hung parliament is the way to go. Let them squabble and horse trade for
a few years so that they can't actually change anything.


ten years ago I would have said yes, but right now I think we need some
pretty rapid action.

The recession aint over, It has not really begun yet.

If we don't dismantle the nanny state in pretty short order and demolish
ten years of bureaucratic legislation, the country will sink under the
weight of its bureaucracy.


The only difference a hung parliament will make, is that nothing will be
possible: If you consider that the way things are today, over regulated
with a huge public sector that doesn't really deliver and a punitive tax
regime, is what you want, then go hung. What will happen is that all
attempts to cut public spending will be resisted until there simply
isn't any money, and then it will be tear gas on the streets as the
whole public sector comes out because it hasn't been paid. And Britain
will simply be marked as bad risk and go bust.

meanwhile we wont be allowed to do what needs to be done ourselves, as
it will be against some regulation or other than hasn't been replaced,
either.

Gordon has blown it for labour, Cleggy is a tosser who is just Labour
with a different and even loonier name and policy set.

Cameron is not the most attractive duck on the pond, but at least the
policies stack up: dismantle the stupidity of the Nanny state, and get
the country to sort it self out, and preserve as much of it that is
useful and necessary as funds will allow. At least you wont be penalised
for hard work, productivity and savings, which the others will trash to
pay to keep bureaucrats in jobs.

I don't know where all these people are going to work but it isn't around
here.
I expect there will be a large increase in traffic congestion, maybe even to
the level of London where the average speed is about 8 mph or they are all
on the dole.

WRONG!! We need stability and hard people to steer us out of the Credit
Crunch.

Lets us see what what this sycophantic snotty uni one now says....

Cameron is not the most attractive duck on the pond,


What a surprise!! This one would welcome mass unemployment and devastation
yet again. I always wonder what world they live in.

This may be a good idea after a government has put the UK on a good course
but not ATM with the mess its in.

Very good post, I have not seen it set out like that before. It brings
it all down to earth and into perspective. We go need people with a
successful track record to take us out of the Credit Crunch. Once
again, excellent.


Sadly, none of those exist in the Labour Party.


I go on record and results.The OPs post was factually correct and well
put for once cutting through the flannel we hear all about us. We do
need stability and experience to take us out of this depression, not
some green public schoolboys in charge. That is the last thing we
need. Brown did run the economy brilliantly and we all befitted. He
was the architect of the world-wide recovery. These are difficult
times. People should sit back, reassess and look at the gravity of the
world situation we are in. Use common sense. We need the right man for
the job and Brown is the man. We need Gordon Brown's experience to
guide us out. I can't think of anyone else who can do the job. These
are serious times and we cannot be flippant.

All Labour have to do is tell the facts about their record, which is
superb. The Hurray Henry Tories shadow cabinet are all from the same
few
schools.

Hi Group
When it is announced that the rich have got richer and the poor got
poorer, it is time for this so-called Labour government to go. I think
they should be called New Tories not New Labour.

I can't wait for the election to finish then we can get down to the
serious and important issues of the day such as the SA World Cup finals
and a summer holiday with the girlfriend.


..and Gordon Brown still in charge. Remember we won the world cup under a
Labour government.



That was Gordon Banks not Gordon Brown.

You are right it has to be Brown. He has world respect fro his role in
formulating the world recovery plan. We need people who know that are doing
in these dangerous times, not a bunch of Hurray Henry's all from one school,
like you see in a banana republic.
