It has been an interesting pre-election period.
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.

Not surprising that the financial markets cannot believe that the people who messed up the UK economy so badly would be the right people to fix the problems!!
Just changing the UK government (which means that this turgid bunch has gone) would go a long way to getting the UK back on a sound financial footing.
Gordon Brown and Blair started with the Golden Inheritance from the last Conservative government over thirteen years ago. Their term in power has been a financial and social disaster for the UK. The actions of Blair taking us to an unnecessary war has cost the country billions and, more importantly, cost the lives of many of our military, plus up to a million Iraquis and Afghanis, many of them civilians.
It is a shameful chapter in the history of the world. The UK needs to get rid of every vestige of this ‘New’ Labour thinking. It has been a disaster.

There is a serious charge facing Blair, Brown and New Labour. There is a possibility that they could they be faced with accusations of betraying the UK?
Were Blair and Brown really prepared to bring in so many foreigners that the white English vote would be in the minority?
Was this all about keeping New Labour in power for generations? Changing the ethnic make up of the UK would change the political landscape and give Labour a built in majority at every election.
Perhaps all New Labour’s useless immigration controls and their failure to send back illegal immigrants were meant to fail. Perhaps they are preparing to legitimise all the illegal immigrants and give them the vote?
Even the BNP would seem to care more for our country than New Labour does!!!!
We need an election and we need it now!
