The Euro zone (not the EU itself) wanted to finance itself by taxing the UK financial industry!!! We are not in the Euro zone. It is inconceivable that this should be allowed to happen.

The UK needs to tax the UK financial industry for the benefit of the UK!!

The Euro zone is a major disaster waiting to happen. It is a stupid idea for so many diverse nations to have a single currency – it just cannot work anywhere except in the imaginations of politicians who want to benefit from the power (and money) that such an organisation would give them!

I find it sad that the Libdems have lost the plot so completely that they would give away the inevitable tax on the UK financial industry and not be bothered about the need for this money to help the UK economy!!!

The Lib Dems have a strange idea of what is in the best interests of the United Kingdom!

But the UK is not a member of  the Euro zone.

Why on earth is it a problem that the UK is not giving £70 million (estimates vary) to the Eurozone to keep it going!!

It seems to me that the UK press simply reports the negative and potential problems of any story because this sort of news is more dramatic and sells mores papers!

Cameron has done the right thing. I think that Labour, judging from their actions whilst in power, would have given the Euro zone anything they asked for!

But they didn’t and we are all in a very difficult mess now, which can only become worse as time goes on!

Milliband has made the credibility of his leadership of the Labour party worse by bringing in many of the last failed government as shadow ministers.

Who can believe that they could succeed in the future when they have such a track record of failure already!

Where was all that enthusiasm displayed when Clegg did well in the first of the PM debates? It seemed to evaporate when it came to actually voting!

A LibDem association with the Conservatives could be exactly what they need to show that they are responsible and capable to be in government. They will be rewarded for a mature attitude in joining in a partnership with the Conservatives, but they cannot expect those rewards straight away.

The UK needs a stable, mature team to deal with the very serious economic problems dumped on us by an incapable New Labour government. As part of that team Clegg and the Libdems can become ready for government and become serious contenders in the future.

I think that the Gordon Brown and New labour campaigning has been quite shameful and cynical.

The insistence of campaigning by scare tactics intended to worry the vulnerable and the elderly will be how history records the New Labour campaign.

There has been a lot of this negative campaigning from New Labour. Even Gordon Brown has been telling people what the Conservatives are going to do rather than being focused on what New Labour propose!

The Libdems have participated in the campaign  much more than normal. There is still the risk that they will be squeezed out by the two main parties, except possibly in marginal seats where tactical voting would seem to be going to take place! It would be good if they replaced New Labour forever as the second party in the UK.

I believe that the UK is in a critical point in its history. The UK is so seriously in debt that we have to get this under control very fast. It is not just the published debt figures. Most of the new schools and hospitals have been built on debt that is accumulated in the Private Finance Initiate (PFI). The PFI debt includes a lot of debt from various sources and is not included in the UK official debt figures.

New Labour took the Golden Inheritance from the last Conservative government and turned it into a recession with the UK so saddled with debts that we will all be paying back the debts for many years to come.

We will all be taxed very heavily to screw more money out of us. We will all have to pay higher prices for everything we buy, including electricity and gas!

The UK is at risk of going the same way as Greece, with our debt getting junk status.

New Labour, that mostly means Gordon Brown, has caused the banking crisis (Brown took away controls on the banks which led to the credit crunch and recession) and has brought the UK to the brink of bankruptcy.

I haven’t even mentioned the wars in Iran and Afghanistan which we should not be involved in!

Labour have failed us, they do not deserve to be in power again.

I can see where these people are coming from!

New Labour, that is Gordon Brown and Tony Blair, came into power taking or themselves what is called ‘the Golden Inheritance’ of the previous Conservative government.

Whatever Labour supporters say about their view on the Conservative party, the ‘Golden Inheritance’ is fact!!

So what has Gordon Brown , and one cannot exclude Tony Blair in this criticism, done with such an inheritance and such a strong economy over the last 14 years?

The answer is clear and very damning to the reputations of both Brown and Blair as well bringing the Labour party into disrepute.

The answer is that they turned a booming economy and a Golden Inheritance into the biggest debt that the UK has ever had (possibly even including the war years).

Our debt levels are so high that the UK risks the same financial treatment as Greece! Every person in the UK is now going to have to pay for years to come increased taxes  and higher prices.

When one looks at the state of the economy when Brown came into power, and the complete mess that he has made of the UK economy, then it is a no brainer that he really is the worst prime minister the UK has ever had.

He hasn’t had to deal with any real crisis except the ones he caused, such as the banking crisis and the credit crunch.  His answer to any problems is to simply spend more of our money.

Brown wanted to pay MPs more money without raising their salaries, so he changed the rules for MPs expenses allowing MPs to claim for so much more and, the critical point, having all these extra expenses approved by the officials running the system.

Claiming that our soldiers had ‘all the equipment’ they needed when the snatch land rover was clearly vulnerable to roadside bombs was either not understanding what was going on or the wrong attitude towards the safety of our soldiers!

Think back to all the failures of computer systems implemented by this government. They might have worked eventually but almost all of them failed when first introduced.

What was good economic management in taxing people’s pensions as Brown personally introduced? Reducing pensions reduces quality of life for retired people. It also means many people will have to work for longer. What was the point of doing this? We do not have enough jobs for everyone as it is!!

The NHS receives so much money that it really has no reason not to be an excellent service! But what about the care of the elderly and the long-term sick? Do these aspects of the NHS work well? I suggest not. Just read how the elderly and those with dementia etc are treated.

I suggest that Brown really does deserve the title of ‘worst prime minister’ in modern times.

It does not surprise me that white-collar ‘boom’ towns in the South have been turned to benefit blackspots under this lousy government.

These towns are truly representative of the way that Brown and Labour have managed the UK economy. They have brought us to the brink of bankruptcy!

It may even be too late to avoid the IMF taking over the running the UK economy.

It looks like Labour are going to be punished by the electorate for their appalling management of the UK.  I don’t want people blaming all politicians in general for the mess that Brown, Blair and Labour have made of the UK! The fault is with Labour and it is Labour that should be punished!

You have paid a big price for taking the ‘Golden Inheritance’ from the last Conservative government and turning this pot of gold into the most massive debt that all of us in the UK will now have to suffer for years to pay back.

I do not understand how you even think that you have a chance of getting re-elected when you have caused such an economic meltdown of the UK finances.

You are almost the last person in the world who can claim to be capable of sorting out the mess which you caused in the first place!!

We have huge debt levels as a result of your financial policies. Our debt risks becoming junk which will cost us all even more of our money.

And your campaign for the election is based on increasing our debts even more because you don’t feel that you should start to reduce UK debts for the next year. Which will cost us all more money and increased debt.

Brown had kept himself in the background whilst Blair was taking the UK to war. By doing this Brown gave the impression that he did not like was happening.

But we now know that he fully supported the Iraq invasion and then the military action in Afghanistan.

We have had all the stories from the front line that our troops have not had the proper equipment for the action in Afghanistan, with particular reference to snatch land rovers and helicopters.

It would seem to me that Blair is reviled by the majority of the UK population. Brown should now take his place next to Blair in the annals of history.
