Nice budget, allowances up to 11000, tax free savings, relief for oil sector (helps one of my clients) , fuel duty frozen. Surplus predicted in near future to start to get the overall debt back down...... As good as it gets.. Now lets make sure Labour don't get in a mess it all up again
 
i think lindisfarne created more jobs than the whole of france.:49:
 
had enough of the grinning idiot blair. can't see anybody daft enough to vote sillyband in.
 
ha. i know where he gets his figure of 20 million. it's the number of migrants he let in.
 
borrowed? stole, more like. now we know where the NHS budget went 1997 - 2007.


the views of the writer are expressed as a joke and there is no inference that mr. blair is in any way a criminal, or has in any way behaved in an unethical manner, if you forget mass immigration, iraq, fox hunting, pension theft, gold reserve selloff, armed forces badly equipped, mass unemployment, the national debt,public sector spending , creation of non-jobs, university places for thickkos, low wages,............

This thread has been like a pat on the back conservative voters platform for Tony Blair knockers,so a few truths need stating


He led the party and the government under the banner of the labour party,however, Tony Blair is not and never has been a socialist in my definition

He may have been a liar on the world stage,incompetent and lives a double standard life,but he was a watered down conservative with watered down conservative policies

There has not been a socialist government in all its resplendent glory since Clement Attlee led the country with Nye Bevan pushing through the sincerity of care and help for fellow men that the socialist label should portray

You may argue Labour or Tory and agree or disagree about the niceties,remember both parties are Conservative,its just the depth of depravity of carelessness for their fellow man that divides each of them



For the record the last socialist prime minister (Attlee)was responsible for these changes to which the dog eat dog Tories had no answer and had to grudgingly accept as the best way forward


T
he government he led built the post-war consensus, based upon the assumption that full employment would be maintained by Keynesian policies and that a greatly enlarged system of social services would be created – aspirations that had been outlined in the wartime Beveridge Report.
Within this context, his government undertook the
nationalisation of public utilities and major industries, as well as the creation of the National Health Service. After initial Conservative opposition to Keynesian fiscal policy, this settlement was broadly accepted by all parties for over three decades until Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister in1979.

Gordon brown was the last chancellor to have a surplus,only the american banking system collapse stopped it getting bigger, the banking collapse stopped the whole world economy in it's tracks, sure labour made mistakes, so do the tories, regarding the 11000 allowance, that is a libdem policy, if the tories win the next election that will be stopped, just like the 22 broken promises from their manefesto after the 2010 election.

Although I will not vote for UKIP, it has to be said they will change British politics forever regardless of whether they win any MPs in the next election or not, the main stream parties are running scared, I read labours manefesto a day or two back and one of their main ploicies is to look at border control LOL, without Farage that would have never happened, so even though he is a numpty, he has created a stir. The2 main parties are neck and neck at the moment, Farage has said he will form a government with the tories if the tories promise a 2015 EU referendum, the SNP were on the TV yesterday saying they would side with Labour if they stopped austerity, Labour has however said they will not team up with them, I don't believe them by the way, the Libdems with their 20 MPs which they will get after the election may actually still decide who governs the country.
 
I've had brain freeze, can someone remind me which party is offering a 4 day week and free beer on Friday?

But he left us with a bit of a deficit AND if you look at the history books UK plc was running a deficit since 2001-2002 - LONG before the 2008 crash

What a stupid point to post!
