Last week they couldn’t even hold one of their strongest constituencies!

The polls might show that Labour is ahead but it is because the Coalition government has to make really difficult economic decisions as a result of the total mess that Labour made of the UK economy in their 14 years of power.

In 2015 we will still be paying back the debts dumped on us by Labour in power. No one will trust Labour and anything they say about economic policies.

The financial pain caused by Labour’s inept policies will still be hurting the voters.

Perhaps dumping every Labour minister who held power in the last government would be a prudent move to make now if Labour want to try to get back into power!

Of course we should by then have broken the links between the Labour party and the Trade Unions. That could give Labour a big funding problem as so much of their money came from the Trade Unions.

(1) most of the Press seem to be working to destabilise the government just so that they can sell more papers, and

(2) the government has to stop the UK from becoming a basket case like Greece . Some of the other EU countries are close to collapse and the UK could easily follow if the correct measures are not taken.

So the press now support the Labour party (by definition that means the Trade Unions) whilst criticising the Labour party leadership as feeble and at the same time helping Labour to attack the Conservatives.

Are the press now paid by results? No matter how damaging what they publish is to the UK??

It does seem that the more dramatic the story then they sell more papers and the more money they get paid?

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!

Milliband is right. We cannot afford pay increases and new hospitals and schools etc.

I think that it is shameful that the trade unions are calling for strikes and militant activity in order to get more money for themselves! It was Labour, who are OWNED by the trade unions, who messed up our country.

If the trade unions want fairness then everyone who voted Labour in the last election should have a pay cut!!!

These complainers know that these pledges cannot be implemented unless the Libdems are elected.

I would guess that most of these people are Labour supporters trying to break the coalition, or they really do not understand the political facts of life!

The UK owes the LibDems a favour for keeping Labour out of power. Just look at the immense damage that Labour did under Blair and Brown.

Most of the Labour ministers are the same ones who were in the last government. Could anyone actually trust Labour not to complete the job and actually bankrupt the UK if they got back into power?

I wouldn’t!

The comments  tend not to be at all constructive, simply slagging off cameron or clegg or the conservatives in general.

These people all have short memories – it was the Labour government that so messed up our economy that the UK  needs to cut costs which means some public services need to be reduced.

The coalition government is not cutting services for fun! It has to be done to avoid the same fate as Ireland suffered and Portugal has now fallen into.

Being taken over by the IMF has a dramatic affect on the public services on the country.  The UK has avoided this disaster so far.

Remember the IMF taking over a failed UK economy before? That was a Labour government – they seem to make a habit of almost bankrupting UK economies!

Did anybody in the last government stand up against this lemming-like drive by Blair and Brown to just spend, spend and spend public money regardless of the debt being built up for future generations?

No wonder student loans have to be increase! No wonder we are having to cut public services!

These cuts are not the fault of the current government. They are having to be done because of the actions of the last Labour government.

I cannot imagine why anyone would ever trust a Labour government again! (especially when the current opposition consists mostly of the same people who made such a mess of our economy!)

But it is blatantly obvious to everyone, except those with a separate agenda, that Clegg could NOT expect the Conservatives to adopt all the LibDem policies.

The Libdems are lucky to get ANY of their policies adopted – they could not get into power on their own!

But note that the leaders of these protests were at first all carrying socialist and trade union banners.

These are the people who started the protest and they are simply trying to attack the Conservative government by damaging the coalition.

Many of those well-intended students are politically naive and have been taken advantage of by the socialists.

Put the blame for this chaos where it really belongs, that is on the trade unions and Labour.

They have been drawn into an attack on the Tory government by the socialists. Many of those leading the demonstrations had Labour or socialist banners.

Labour doesn’t have the moral ground to attack the government on the issue of student finance. They introduced the concept of student loans in the first place and had planned similar changes to those proposed by the current government.

And the only reason we need to increase the cost of student loans in the first place is because Labour almost bankrupted the UK in its 13 years of power! Our government needs to implement financial cuts and increase revenues because of the awful Labour government that was voted out of power a short time ago.

Many of these students need to grow up a bit and take the trouble to understand how they are being used by the opponents to the Conservative government!
