Labour are the best of a bad bunch.

Worst of the lot.

First ones to say we should all pay more tax, first to avoid it themselves.

Voted for no tuition fees in the Scottish parliament, then introduced tuition fees in England, only managing to get the vote through parliament by getting all their Scottish MPs to come in and support it.
Destroyed pensions
Borrowed and printed money to give the illusion that the economy was growing when it was actually falling to pieces
Destroyed more manufacturing in 13 years than the conservatives did in 19

Truly the lowest of the low, and that's before mentioning all their paedo supporters

obviously a wind-up, you are only allowed up to 90% bollox per post, The paedo accusation is a different
matter and worthy of a ban

He should also commit to a ban on all Zero hour contracts.

Um. You do realise a lot of people really love zero hour contracts, right? Like me for instance. It's called freelancing.

Yes that's fair enough.But unscrupulous employers,and there are plenty of them,take the piss.
Employers will always find ways to get round increased costs ie wages,either through more use of casual labour or more part timers.What you gain on the swings you. lose on the roundabouts.

Um. You do realise many more people really hate zero hour contracts , or exploitation, to be accurate.
Wonder how many shop assistants, postmen, process workers, bus drivers, wagon drivers would love to be freelance. job agencies exist to satisfy those who choose to be freelance, zhc's should not be used as a way round work-place legislation, which it is, and what it was created for, and why it is such bad news for the heavily over-supplied labour market.

Saying that if they win the General Election they will raise the minimum wage to £8 an hour. Fair play to Millibland, this is a vote winner.

He's on the Andrew Marr show right now.

Edit: said the following:

1. They will raise the higher tax bracket to 50%.
2. Wouldn't be dragged into the English MPs voting on English issues.
3. NHS would be protected, everyone would be able to see their GP within 48 hours.

Handled himself quite well, but still sounds like he needs to blow his nose.



If the torys sign the TTIP/EU agreement this won't happen as it will mean that business' can sue the Government for recompense of loss of profits due to the implementation of legislation......end of.

I didn't say they were perfect for everyone, I said that they suited a lot of people, and thus banning them is sticking an oar in where it's not wanted. Don't try and tell others what to please.

Re: Labour's Minimum Wage Promise/Millibland on Andrew Marr

£8 per hour by 2020 when it will probably be worth the same as it is now given how prices will rise in the next 6 years.

Basically you are being given fuck all but spin by a Labour Party that is no longer labour.
