The answer was Quantitive easing, low intrest rates, who introduced those measures. Surprise surprise the THE LAST LABOUR CHANCELLOR, Alistar Daring.
Yes the New Tories. How many times do I have to say it, Tony Blair was Margaret Thatcher greatest achievement. So what exactly is your point caller?
Meanwhile can I throw the spotlight on Scotland for a moment. There is a battle going on for the leadership of the Labour Party right now.
The two main contenders are
Neil Findley MSP (started out as a brick layer) and
Jim Murphy MP (cabinet minister).
Here's Neil's ticket; (some bullet points from.....)
Turn the minimum wage into a living wage
More funded childcare places
Scrap Trident Nuclear weapons
Build 50,000 council houses
Bring the rail network back into public ownership
An NHS free of and protected from Privatisation.
All sensible policies.
The Labour party in London has described Neil as dangerous. He cannot apparently be allowed to win they say.
They want Jim Murphy, the guy wi the Irn Bru crate who is scared of eggs. Jim Murphy is New Labour, a Blairite who voted for the Iraq war, backs privatisation and PPI, a friend of Israel and wants to buy a new nuclear weapons system for the UK.
Jim is the favourite, and you know what, he's gonna come up from Westminster and destroy what is left of Labour in Scotland.
You know here's another thing, never mind that the rich don't pay tax, that's just part of the game. All your public services have been privatised, (after foccing up all the utilites) most of them to foreign based companies. These companies have only one interest, making as much money as possible and getting it back out of the country. Lockheed Martin, the arms manufacturer just last week tendered for NHS administration contracts in England!
There are less beds in the NHS today than there were ten years ago cos we've gotta pay the private companies for the PFI hospitals we built. I could go on and on and on. Bottom line you are getting focced, getting focced big time. And you know what, you are all swallowing the lies, benefits scroungers, the EU and immigration. The UK is a foccing joke.
It will not matter who is in power this lot or the other lot the rich will get richer and the poor will stay poor. A decent living wage should be everyones right, as long as you work for it.
You wanna know something. This is a democracy. People get the government they deserve. This is what you deserve. And if things go the way I think they are gonna go, Scotland will actually ditch the UK.
Lewis Hamilton. Well done tae him, but aye he's a wee self centred knob. F1 is boring.
