Quote:I remember the 1970s and the last of the Corbyn type labour politicians in power, mortgage rate around 11/12%, no coal, power cuts, 3 day working week so short wages, rubbish piling up in the streets, and the country was run by militant union leaders not the government.They tried the same policies then and they didn't work borrowed billions just to keep our country afloat. Don't fall for the same s**t they peddled then else your kids and grand kids will pay for it like I and my kids did.I remember the 1990s when a certain May type tory politician in power, mortgage rate hit 15%, we joined then had to quickly leave the Euro (then the ERM). The country was run by a mad woman under a personality cult whose ideology was to provoke the unions and bring them to submission. They also sold all of the council houses, so nobody now has anywhere to live. Don't fall for the same austerity s**t this one is peddling otherwise they'll be no NHS, no public services and we'll all be on zero hours contracts. Meanwhile the rich will just get richer.
