Socialist governments are like lemmings – they are only capable of spending other peoples money and it always runs out leaving the people of the country in dire financial straits.
We had 14 years of Labour that ruined the economy of the UK but memories are so short that mostly the same Labour shadow cabinet that almost bankrupted the UK economy is now seen as capable of making everything OK again.
Why?? It doesn’t make any sense! The last Conservative government before Blair and the ruinous 14 years of Labour, worked wonders with the UK economy.
Blair came into power with the ‘Golden Inheritance’ from the Conservatives and kept the same economic policies as the Conservatives had for nearly 5 years.
Why? Because they worked!! Then their socialist instincts took over and they started their ruinous spending spree and when they ran out of cash they started to borrow.
That is why the UK economy is in the appalling state that it is!
The Conservatives are getting attacked because they have the task of cleaning up Labour’s mess. People may not like some of the actions that they have taken but that is no reason to go back to having Labour in power. We know that they will fail. We know that they will sign us up into the Euro.
The UK has a fair chance of ending up in a serious recession just because of the appalling way in which Labour ran our economy for many years. To bring Labour back into power would, in my view, guarantee the UK going into recession.
We might not be well off as a country now but if we end up with an economy being controlled by the IMF then people really will suffer. Just look at what Greece and Ireland are going through!!!
It is a fallacy to believe that ‘soaking the rich’ would make any real difference at all. Again a consequence of 14 years of a Labour government, the rich are able to move money abroad, be paid abroad and manipulate their finances to legally minimize tax.
These financial dealings that benefit the rich have gone too far! People do object strongly to what is simply legal tax avoidance. It is not right that the rich can benefit in this way. There have always been ways for companies and the rich to minimize tax. But this ‘legal’ tax avoidance has gone too far. But, again, the huge increase in people avoiding tax legally, is a consequence of the 14 years of Labour in power!
It didn’t become a problem just because the Conservatives became the government!
I would like to see all the cabinet and the shadow cabinet come clean about any tax avoidance schemes that they are using to minimize their tax payments to the UK.
I would like to see the Trade Union bosses doing the same. After all they ‘own’ the Labour government and have given themselves massive pay rises recently and various benefits. They strongly influence UK politics and it would be interesting to see how much of their members donations are spent on perks and politics.
