Labour sinking!
« on: 27 September 2009, 10:20:15 »

There are now clear signs that the rats are starting to run from the sinking Labour Government ship whilst recognising the hopelessness of their cause.

Yesterday John Prescott was quoted talking about Labour's "defeatism" and lack of drive at the top of the Party, today we have Alistair Darling coming out and saying that
Labour must come out fighting and doing more to regain lost voters after Charles Clarke openly warned of a "hammering at the polls", calling for Brown to step down. Lord Mandelson is being quoted this morning as stating he would work for the Tories (heaven forbid!!) 

Along with many "other Labour MPs" reportedly talking of a massive defeat at the General Election, it appears to me the MP's of Labour are planning their politcal alignments for after the inevitable, and starting to jump from the sinking ship!

Lizzie...........
I believe that David Cameron and his excellent team will become the next government. ::) ::)
Not since 1979.......with the wonderful Mrs T.........have we had such an accomplished team ::) ::)
From 1979-1997.......Mrs Thatcher ..........followed by the superb John Major .....turned Britain from the "sick man of Europe"..........into a Utopian society........for everybody......both rich and poor ::) ::)

If memory serves .........in the eighties .....Mrs Thatcher......almost single -handedly......eradicated...........poverty........unemployment.........sickness......and THE worst disease of all time........SOCIALISM.....(I can  barely bring myself to say such a word) ::)
It is a disgrace that the ungrateful British people....elected a Labour government in 1997......Shame on them ::)
In summary Lizzie..........like a cathartic experience...........I have seen the light ::) ::) ::).....and so shall be voting CONSERVATIVE.......at the next general election. ::) :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

I this the USA has the better idea that a premier can only be in for max of 2 seasons - most governements run out of steam after a few years, then we go through a period of diabolical stupidity, which ensures the opposition gets in next time.  Happened to the Tories, allowing Smiling Boy and his cronies in, and we're seeing it again with Tories MkII New Labour now, allowing Mr Personality to win next year.

None at all in my view ODM, their tenure in government has resulted in a decline in the fortune and standing of this nation across the board.

Another term would be an unmitigated disaster for this country.

It is interesting though, as people are generally happy when they have job security and are spending. But then it remains to be seen.
