Well you've got to admit Less that since Accy Web went on line there as only been Labour years, apart from May onwards that is. I am the first to admit that the Tories towards the end of their last time in office deserved to be beaten, but even then they left Labour with a strong economy to inherit, in fact the strongest economic position ever inherited by an incoming government in history, and they still cocked it up big style, as per usual

A debt that will never really reduce as the interest payments alone are crippling. The banks got away with fiscal murder and some are now partying to celebrate. Ok I can see why they rescued the banks but would it not have been better to treat the banks the same as any other business? A bank would have let a business go to the wall if it had been as reckless as they were. We need to put a proverbial noose round their knecks that one stupid arrogent move would have them hanging themselves.

BBC News - Spending Review: Benefit fraud measures outlined this is a good idea but theres so many laws, most would get it back on appeal so its just another gimmick and whos going to implement them when they are getting rid of so many staff are they going to try and do it on the cheap so most cases will be dropped due to lack of evidence because of the human rights law.

I quite agree. A bit of thinning out would have been rather nice.

What we could do with is a nationalised bank that people could trust.

How about, oh I don't know, The Bank of England?

Well the good old Bank of England used to regulate the Banks until somebody had a brilliant idea to regulate them, wonder who that was

Are you related to the Mayor of London?

Read that again, work out where you went wrong and then re-post.

At last a bit of sense over the health and safety nonsense, and a curb on ambulance chasers is long over due, we have got to a situation where there is no genuine no fault accidents anymore, a lot of these so called "accidents" could be avoided if people themselves were more careful and were no always looking for some one to blame, when most of the time its their own stupid fault
I agree
