Who propped up the banks? Gordon Brown initially.....You think that was a labour government?.....The Blair and Brown government was more conservative than the conservative party was at the time. That is why they could not defeat Teflon Tony! For your information a proper Labour government would be something akin to Jeremy Corbin being prime-minister.

But David and his cronies have followed up with the low interest loans and quantitative easing to continue the good work ensuring that the already wealthy still remain wealthy whilst kidding you that if they do not act then it all goes t"ts up and you can kiss goodbye to your house and your pension.

We are the laughing stock of the world let alone Europe and once again I state that I am ashamed to be British by being represented by a government that is incompetent beyond belief. When they announce policies in a budget and 24 hours later do a complete U-turn (and not for the first time) just shows that they have no idea what the country feels...Unbridled conservatism......lets push them as far as we feel we can get away with and if the reaction is not excessive then we have got away with it. If not we U-turn and say that we are caring and listening.

Basically they rely on their policy being NIMBY of their voters and if they can keep it that way then they are doing a good job. Chinese have already locked up the steel industry and like a few people on this forum that have also spent time in China they know that other industries and services are soon to follow. They have the skilled people in place already.
