We have been misled by Labour over the UK economy
Posted by michael on June 14, 2010
I would like to see an official investigation into what Brown, Darling and Labour were telling us about the UK economy.
The UK economy is in a very poor state yet if one had believed the last Labour government then everything was really OK. Brown emphasised his ‘prudence’ in dealing with the economy.
Yet we now find that the debts are more than anyone imaged, and the UK growth figures have been exaggerated.
Although Labour lost many seats, their share of the vote was higher than expected.
I do wonder how many people were misled by Labour emphasising that prudent Brown has the economy in control!! I know of some people who voted for Labour because Brown was seen as more competent to look after the economy.
Of course these people now know that Brown did not have the economy under control. They now know how much in debt Labour have plunged the UK into.
As far as I am concerned there should be very few people who will ever be able to trust a Labour government again!
