Did Someone Say

[TWR]

Did someone say we are on the Road To Recovery?
Was it as bad as this when Labour was in?

NHS
Economy
Living Standards
Salary
Boarder Control
Prisons Overcrowded
Immigration out of control
Banks on the fiddle
EU Dictating & Telling us what WE CAN / MUST DO To confirm with Europe?

[jackthehat]

1. Apparently so.
2. Yes.

[dannyk13]

Yes

[Baldric]

You forgot to mention that Labour, as usual, took us to the brink of National Bankruptcy!

And how tighter control of Boarders would help I don't know, unless you're suggesting more restrictions on the Pupils of Eton!

[mrs_overall]

Boarder control?

I didn't realise people had such terrible trouble with lodgers ;-)

[whiskeryron]

There's not much to choose between either of 'em

The NHS was in recovery (indeed had pretty much recovered) under Labour - the Tories have wrecked it for ideological reasons.

The economy is limping back to some sort of health - I believe (for all his perceived faults) Gordon Brown would have got things going more quickly.

I could work my way down the list, but need my breakfast.

[naomi24]

Yes.

No, it was worse - otherwise we'd have nothing to recover from.

Dave, is this the same Gordon Brown who flogged off all the gold for next to nothing?

[naomi24]

... and rifled the working man's pension pot?

[mrs_overall]

naomi....hear hear!

[sunny-dave]

It is indeed the same G Brown - who was held hostage by the agents of mad, corrupt, rampant, capitalistic banking and did a pretty decent job in ensuring the hole they dumped us in wasn't as deep as it might have been.

A decent, honest, intelligent man traduced by historical revisionists who said nothing at the the tiime ...

The last Labour government inherited the best economy this country has ever had....and look what they did with it. If the current Labour party were to be re-elected, we are all doomed.
As for Labour and the NHS, all I will say is take a look at Wales

[sunny-dave]

The *** storm of corrupt banking in 2008 destroyed pretty much every first world economy - no UK government of any colour would have survived unscathed.

I agree about the Welsh NHS - a shambles, and I too have no great faith in Mr Millibean and his current crew. But five more years of cronyist cameronism would be worse ...

[mrs_overall]

dave, we will have to agree to disagree....even though you are wrong ;-)

[sunny-dave]

I could agree with you ... but then we would both be wrong :)
