Same dinosaurs making the same old comments.

Nigel parsons was perfectly correct:
"The outgoing Conservative party left a healthy economy. The Labour party have managed to totally turn this around. Brown has claimed credit for the good state of the economy (which he inherited as chancellor) and blamed the downturn (over which he presided) on global conditions."

Apart from selling gold at a low, who was it that "raided" the pensions? Don't tax yourself it was Gordon Brown aided and abetted by the Labour Party. Who was it that proposed getting rid of the 10% income tax band? Gordon Brown and the Labour Party yet again.

As to Stigweards bleat - "they sold off the social housing stock".

Eh Stig, was that the "social housing stock" that countless local councils could no longer afford to look after and maintain? Was that the "social housing stock" that was rapidly being transformed into 20th century slums and ghettoes because of neglect? Was that the "social housing stock" that rate payers had to maintain as well as looking after their own properties? Is that the "social housing stock" that the fat-cat socialists (Messer's Wilson, Callaghan and Healey) decreed that people had no right to own (Wilson at the time had five houses, Callaghan two including a farm in Sussex and Healey had three) - hypocrites or what?? Do as I say not as I do.
