The guy was out of line, he was pulled up & has now quit. There I think you see a fundamental difference between him & other Politicians/representatives who've also screwed up but fought tooth & nail to remain in place.

'Never had it so good' Tory quits after rebuke - UK Politics, UK - The Independent

I believe he fell on his sword - unfortunately the Blair/Brown cronies did not have that decency;):)

Don't take much imagination to reckon twas through pressure from D.C. cos he didn't have the balls to sack him?;)

cameron probably agrees with him but cant afford even more bad opinions of him so distanced himself and ordered him to quit.

quite surprised he didnt send clegg to mop up the mess , he must have been busy cleaning number 10's loo

And yet you seem to think your daily quote of '13 years of Labour misrule',
is fresh off the press?

Good Grief!

:eek:

Well.. the Irish economy is in rather different circumstances to ours.

If you remember at the time, the Conservatives and Labour agreed that the banks needed saving. Labour have however cost us billions of pounds by overspending before the recession even hit. Now we're spending hundreds of millions a week paying interest to bankers on all the debt the last Government left the new Government.

Now , how was I 100% certain you would mention Denis Healey when I posted that quote ? ;)

I've checked up on it , and from October to December 1976 Denis Healy was negotiating with the IMF . He succeeded in getting a loan of $3.9 billion .
Sorry I can't put the link to the article , but I haven't got the knack of doing it yet .

dont make me laugh overspending, trying to put right what thatcher and major destroyed and poverty they created. tories squandered money with selling off the family jewells labour spent money investing in britain and the person who has cost britain was john major who signed the maastrich agreement im still laughing you actually believe the murdoch press without investigating the facts.

This thread started out as - "the tories cant blame labour now".
So, it appears to me that even though the Tories are not allowed to blame Labour, it is perfectly alright for Labour (you) to blame the Tories, even after 13 years. Maggie may have stopped school milk and broke the Unions and Major may have signed Maastrich, however, they did not give away our gold reserves or take us into two unjustified wars - Labour did that.

He also went to the IMF again in 1978 and was turned down flat, fact and told to put his own house in order;)

And lets not forget that when Brown signed the Lisbon treaty without the promised referendum, it cancelled the Maastricht treaty
