The English FA have stood up for what is right. FIFA has proved that it is little more than a secret, self-interest group with very little public accountability.

Rumours and accusations of corruption mar the credibility of FIFA. And the secrecy amongst the members is totally unacceptable for the international organisation managing the game of football throughout the world.

Blatter has conceded that some major changes need to be made, for example allowing all the members a vote on major decisions. But who knows whether this will actually happen!

In my view FIFA is not fit for purpose and needs root and branch reforms. It would be best to completely scrap FIFA and set up a new , democratic organisation to handle the game of football.

This gravy train must be derailed as soon as possible!

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.

Blair got the country to vote for him on personalities not politics.Labour did not seem to have any idea of what to do once they were in power!

The result was that Labour almost ruined the UK economy and put the UK into serious debt.

We almost went the way of the Irish economy. The election came just in time for the Conservatives to halt the inevitable economic crash that Labour overspending would have caused!

The new Labour leadership are mostly the same bunch that almost destroyed the UK economy.

How can anyone ever expect them to behave differently in the future?

Is the UK really going to put our basic security at risk by allowing men or women in burkas to go unchallenged through our towns and cities and  security lines?

Instead he talks as though knows what the current government should be doing!

I know what his record as Chancellor was. Spending money that the UK did not have! Borrowing more and more money to keep going!

They blamed the ‘global’ recession and ignored the fact that the UK suffered badly from the recession because Labour changed the way that the financial industry was regulated. The controls that would have prevented so much damage to the UK economy were no longer in place!

But my main criticism of the Brown/Darling Labour government is that they just kept borrowing money to keep the economy going.

It was clearly more important to them that they stayed in power even if it meant that the people of the UK were saddled with debts for the next twenty years!

They kept themselves in power at the expense of us all.

Subsequently I  am not interested in the opinions of Darling, Brown or any of the Labour ministers on what the Conservatives and Lib Dems  are doing!

In fact it would concern me if Brown or Darling agreed with the way the ConLib coalition were working to fix the UK economy from the consequences of 13 years of New Labour government!

Labour cannot claim that the crisis was caused by the banks system failures. If Labour had proper controls in place the banks would not have got into the mess that they did.

How could the Labour reply not include any acknowledgement that their term in government was the cause of the budget that they are attacking?

Labour cannot even claim that the crisis was caused by the banks system failures. If Labour had proper controls in place the banks would not have got into the mess that they did. Labour don’t have a right to complain about the new government fixing the economic mess that Labour made when they were in power.

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!
