:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38:How strange, Labour in their 13 years in government did not repeal one piece of major legislation brought in by the 19 years of Tory rule, including Union reforms:D:D

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

Mancie , in the real world outside of our political bubbles , don't you think you should also be Labour bashing ?

Was there any clear water between the last Labour government and the Tories ?

Wilson , Callaghan , Blair , and Brown would all have made good Conservative prime ministers .

All governments leave some form of mess behind when the people kick them out , and all governments blame their predecessors when they have to do unpopular things .

Today Michael Gove is announcing yet more changes in education .
Teachers must wonder where the hell they are . At this rate it's going to be radical changes every full moon .

It started with Kenneth Baker's 1988 Education Act , and to my surprise got worse under the Labour government , and continues under the Coalition .

Politicians should get off teachers' backs and let them get on with the job of teaching .

That's because ultimately all politicians are singing from the same Hymn sheet over key issues such as the European Union! It was Ted Heath (Tory) who first got us into the Common Market - now the European Union and it was Gordon Brown who signed the Lisbon Treaty!

And it was the British public who had the chance in the 70s to pull out in the referendum but voted to stay in, that was in a period of Labour Government;)

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

so therefore the public have no right to bitch about it now.?:D plus other referendums have been promised n not delivered since then, but hey-ho cameron will sort everything out.:rolleyes::D

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

Well we stand a little better chance now than when we had the lying prat Brown;);):rolleyes::D

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

I see right to buy has been ended by the Government. The short term tenancies of as little as two years that have been introduced stop the right to buy process.

Furthermore the government's sense of direction is prevent homes being built by the social sector and for them to be subsequently underoccupied in an effort to tackle the housing crises.

Allowing RTB would mean under occupants would be able to avoid having the tenancy terminated by initiating RTB. Not what the government desires. RTB gone, short term tenancies in.

I believe decades ago this debate has some history. Underoccupancy and tenacy lengths.

There's been plenty of Labour bashing gone on here for years,and rightly so.... but when the tables are turned one or two members don't like it.

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

By the way that was the only referendum ever held in the history of this country.. and the tory oppostion called for a YES vote to stay in.;)

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

Agree but today once again Cameron has been shown to have "Crap Judgment":rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38:

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

Bloody Hell that really puts Brown and Blair in the SH:D

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

You'll never get any flake from me for justifiable criticism Mancie, but some of the crap you come out with is pathetic to say the least ;)

Re: Right to Buy Council houses
 

true but certain people forget that.;)
