Actually, given the challenges that they face they haven't done too badly. ...If only they could deal effectively with crime.

Id say, from my time in the UK recently the complete lack of any real respect for Gordon Brown (and lets face it, he is no charactor like Blair ptiched himself in as initially) and mass immigration has lead to their downfall, especially in the home counties, every i spoke to in London or Essex or Cambridgeshire was fed up with the volume of Romanians, Polish and other EU people setting up shop.

No one ever talks about John Major, I must say, seemed like a nice guy when in school I was forced to watch his political programs, and seeing him on BBC recently he comes across extremely sharp. Ill be honest I was in my teens when he was in power and probably the least interested in politics I have ever been.

Sorry, rambling post, but i reckon people just want labour out, like they did the torys in the mid nineties, the time has come for change and nothing brown or his govt can do will sway that i cant imagine.


Start an illegal war and get the English nation to get behind you coz thats what Thatcher did in the Malvinas.

You are better informed than I but still, if it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck there's a pretty good chance that it *is* a duck <g>.

Ahh, that's because there's no other choice than those two. The problem I've found is that I'd like to vote for somebody slightly left wing, but, not the 'brand' which Labour propose. They seem to be too busy creating regulations stopping police officers from babysitting each other's kids rather than stuff which matters like education, public transport etc.

I'm in favour of state enterprises for things like the railways, schools, electricity, water, gas, postal service, health, prisons etc. They should manage their own internal services as well. For example, hospitals should have their own in-house cleaners, prisons their own guards. Too much seems to be contracted out these days at exhorbitant cost and with unclear lines of accountability and poor service.

Europe is a waste of time and negates and insults the sacrifices that our forefathers made to maintain our independence and freedom. The mind boggles that we seem to be cheering on the creation of a Western-style Soviet Union.

Business should be encouraged and not stifled by mountains of red tape. Hard working people should be encouraged and not penalised by the state.

The enormous volumes of tax rules that Gordy Clown has foisted on us needs to be ditched and replaced with something more straightforward and honest. Down with stealth!

Immigration: Well we are an overpopulated little island ...why are we taking in more and more people?
