Trade Unionists are selfish and greedy people.
The trade unions own the Labour party! It was Labour that destroyed the UK economy and put us all in a mess.
Yet the trade unions members (those that are taking industrial action) are too selfish to suffer the consequences of Labour’s incompetence in government!
They want more money and bigger pensions when the country cannot afford to pay them.
Perhaps we should link people’s pensions and pay to the way that they vote at a general election!!

Police officers being given desk jobs!!!
Posted by michael on September 5, 2011
I never understood why the Labour government took 15,000 trained and qualified police off the work of policing our streets and giving them desk jobs!
They seemed to then employ more people to become police and spent loads of our money training them.
Surely it would seem to have been more sensible to have left the trained police doing their job, which is policing, and trained the newcomers to be admin staff.
It would certainly have been cheaper!!!
But I never understood why Labour did much of what they did. I thought that their policies were mostly rubbish then, and since Labour were chucked out of power it has become obvious that I was right!!
I would guess that this is why Cameron can claim to be able to reduce police staffing and still have more police on the streets (and hopefully fewer trained police in admin roles!).

Labour – incompetent with money?
Posted by michael on March 25, 2011
Did the last Labour government actually understand anything about the value of money, savings and debt?
Brown was happy to put extra taxes on everyones pension payments even though it would have a detrimental affect on our pensions and lives when we retired.
Labour was very happy to borrow as much money as they could, without any apparent regard to the fact that these debts would have to be paid back at some stage in the future.
Did Brown understand that repaying this debt was to come out of our, the peoples, pockets and the whole process would mean increased taxes that would have serious consequences on peoples jobs and lives?
If Labour did not understand what they were doing then it is a plain case of incompetence.
If they did understand what they were doing then they were choosing to bring financial pain and suffering on us all when it became time to repay the debts.

the Labour leadership contest is a sham!
Posted by michael on September 13, 2010
It doesn’t matter which Milliband or which person wins the Labour leadership contest!
Almost all the candidates were personally part of the appalling government of blair and brown.
How can these people campaign against the ConLib government when they were part of the government that made such a financial mess our economy.
Every time they try to speak about the economy they will be reminded that they caused the problems in the first place!
It show the bankruptcy of the Labour party that there are no better candidates than those who are standing for the Labour leadership!
The Union leaders are promising demonstrations on our streets to protest against cuts. What a shame they allowed blair and brown to do so much damage to our economy in the first place.
The union leaders should now keep silent whilst the government works to sort the UK economy out!

We have been misled by Labour over the UK economy
Posted by michael on June 14, 2010
I would like to see an official investigation into what Brown, Darling and Labour were telling us about the UK economy.
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!

New Labour – a bunch of losers!
Posted by michael on June 11, 2010
There can no longer be any doubt that the New Labour government of Brown and Blair has been the worst government that the UK has had in modern times.
Governments are supposed to serve the people, but New Labour do not seem to have considered the needs of the people at all!!
Almost everything they have done whilst in power is about them. Even though the UK had run out of money because of the ruinous policies of New Labour, government ministers still went on a spending spree after they knew that they were going to be thrown out of government!
How could any minister sanction spending sprees at the end of their term in government when they knew how bad the debt situation was.
I would like to see an investigation into what happened in the last few months of the New Labour government. One reason why this is necessary is that several of these Labour ministers are trying to elected as the new Labour leader. We should know now whether they are fit and competent people to potentially be in government again!

Labour hypocrisy – NOW the wars were wrong!!!
Posted by michael on May 22, 2010
Here we have two hypocrites who supported the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan but now say that it was a mistake!!!
I never heard Milliband saying that the invasion was wrong once he had become an MP. I never head Balls say publicly that Blair was wrong to go to war.
As a member of the cabinet Balls agreed 100% with Blair to invade Iraq.
Did I hear either of these people say that the invasion of Afghanistan was wrong? How many other Blair and Brown policies that so many people in the UK objected to, will now be disowned by these two ex-ministers? And if Labour ever win another election, will all these failed policies be resurrected?
Balls and Milliband must have known that the UK debt was so high that the country could end up needing the IMF to rescue it?
They must have understood that the people of the UK were going to have huge tax rises and massive cuts in services because of the Labour governments policies. Did they stand up for the people then?
This seems to be a case of ‘hypocricy rules’!!
This Labour leadership election with failed ex-cabinet ministers trying to become the party leader is just a bad joke. No one in the UK will trust these people again. If Labour want success then dump these losers and get some real, genuine people as Labour MPs!

How did New Labour fool so many people on their ‘economic prudence’
Posted by michael on May 17, 2010
We are beginning to get the true state of the UK economy revealed to us. What is being revealed in the public domain shows that the Labour government have been misleading us on the true state of the UK economy.
Can anybody really now doubt that Gordon Brown has been the worst Prime Minister that the UK has had in modern times? Yet Gordon Brown has a reputation for ‘economic prudence’ and competence as the chancellor and then the unelected Prime Minister.
How did he manage to fool so many people for so long? The awful financial state of the UK economy did not happen overnight or suddenly occur in the last few months!
During the election campaign New Labour and Brown campaigned on the basis of Brown’s prudence and reputation in managing the economy!!!
Nearly all of us are going to go through difficult times with our finances and with cuts in services because of the lousy New Labour government that we have had for the last 14 years!

All the ministers from the discredited New Labour government are tainted with its failure!
Posted by michael on May 16, 2010
It is my view that none of the ministers from the last failed Labour government are fit to be the leader of the Labour party!
They are all responsible for being part of what has probably been the worst Labour government of modern times.
Brown and Darling will take more of the blame and responsibility by virtue of their positions in the government.
But all the senior ministers have been part of a government which has almost bankrupted the UK, taken us to unnecessary wars and brought our economy to its knees.
What short memories they have!!
How can any of these people have any credibility with any financial policies that they may want to promote.
They are all already tainted with a message of financial failure and will carry this message of failure for the rest of their lives!
