Great for your cash ISA though.
Mmm just been announced that unemployment has gone up to the highest level since 1994 ! And lets not forget they are the people that have actually found their way onto the register - many of my acquaintances who've lost their jobs have been told they're not entitled to anything - nothing like paying into the system and getting support when you need it eh ! Labour philosophy -don't let the facts get in the way of the stats. Let's ignore the millions on the more costly incapacity benefit. But hey, the more people you get dependant on benefits the more votes for Labour so that's got to be a good thing !
I seem to remember house prices being far more affordable in the 80's and 90's in fact it was the tories that gave working class people the opportunity to own their own home and Labour that let the debt ridden society fuel a housing boom that has made owning your own home for first time buyers an impossibility for most.
Seem to remember growing up in the 80's and 90's that I enjoyed free dental care, got great comprehensive schooling, university education for free and all at a fraction of the taxes !
Interesting that Labour had no appetite to form a coalition with the Lib Dems -they would rather the 'nasty' tories come in to clean up their mess and implement the difficult choices to stop the whole country going bankrupt. Then they can claim 'not me guv' I didn't spend the country's money and bring us to the verge of bankruptcy it's just those nasty tories who get pleasure from 'cuts' and making people suffer !
The tories should have let Labour spend, spend, spend and run the country into the ground under their well meaning but misguided philosophy - unfortunately it's the only way the socialist bigots will start to live in the real world.
Thanks Labour for widening the gap between the rich and poor, feathering the bankers nests, encouraging mass immigration and throwing 'working class' British people on the scrapheap, borrowing 1 pound for every 4 pounds you spend just so the workshy and idle can live in blissful ignorance on benefits whilst saddling the younger generations with a debt that they will have to pay for - but that they didn't cause (that's fairness!), taking us into a war on the basis of a lie and then not funding adequate equipment for our troops, political correctness, boom in hopsital acquired infections, expenses scandals, cash for influence, teenagers killing each other with knives in rush hour in broad daylight (but of course crime is down), a rise in the prominence of the BNP, Surveillance state - innocent poeple on the DNA database, ID cards, More CCTV cameras than anywhere in Western Europe, speed cameras. Yeh our country really was going in the right direction under Labour.......
