Look you can drop the spin

Read my lips

LABOUR LOST because they have messed this country up and now someone else will have to fix it. No amount of ******** being spouted by you will change that.

Its interesting that you continue what Labour are good at and that's lies.

Thankfully we don't have to put up with brown or his lying rabble any more.

By the way care to show some evidence for you bull excreta that shows it was the Tory's that decided to get rid of those people. ???????

Re: 2010 General Election: The Cable Forum Exit Poll
 

At least some have to. Contrary to the pre-election rhetoric whichever party was in some had to go, just the timing and to a more limited extent the scale which would have been different. It very simply isn't an option to hike up the tax burden sufficiently to cover the total expense, it'd cripple the economy.

I'm sorry to say you can thank Labour for that - they shouldn't have hired them to the public sector in the first place and a perfect demonstration that they went too far with the public sector expansion. Even wiping out the exceptional items from the deficit there's still a structural one of nearly 100bn.

For all the wittering on about how much the public sector are better off thanks to Labour the very simple fact is the public sector don't pay the bills, the private sector do. Taxation is harmful to the private sector so a balance has to be struck and adding an extra 8% or more to our tax burden would be too much.

The thing that is noteworthy about posts talking about how much better off the public sector is and jobs coming and going ignores that the private sector is the section of the economy that pays the bills. The private sector has taken the brunt of the recession, jobs lost and pay frozen, why should the public sector be immune to this and have the private sector pay for them to be immune?

That said I am unfortunately speaking logically, which won't really wash when it hits the ideology that's blinding you to it.

In one paragraph, 2 sentences: The public sector is too large for the private sector to support it. The cost of the public sector must be reduced as it's not possible to raise taxation enough to support it, which will necessarily involve public sector job losses.

Re: 2010 General Election: The Cable Forum Exit Poll
 

How can the tories have done this or passed this if there not in power, Labour lies again.

Re: 2010 General Election: The Cable Forum Exit Poll

I will be one of them trust me.

Re: 2010 General Election: The Cable Forum Exit Poll
 

So the Tories did a perfect job did they?

They sold off loads of industries, which are now having to be bought back under the govenment/public contrrol

Some of these industries have been cannibalised and moved overseas.

etc etc

Or because of the fact the TOries are going to screw us all, and its from people jumping of buildings, to escape the nightmare of the tories running the country, and giving money to the rich at the expense of the lower classes.

Re: 2010 General Election: The Cable Forum Exit Poll
 

I must've missed the bit of his post that claims the Tories did a perfect job. He just stated, quite accurately, that Labour did a bad one.

At least that's what having to fire a large proportion of the public sector workers they hired due to the budget deficit they presided over would imply. No-one can claim everything they did was bad, doesn't change that they simply poured our money down the toilet pursuing the wrong agenda and we'll all have to pay for in different ways.

Re: 2010 General Election: The Cable Forum Exit Poll
 

So what has Labour been doing these last 3 terms of office other than destroying the economy, Sending soldiers to war on a lie, increasing taxes Etc Etc

oh btw Jumping off building my arse

I have a nice bottle of wine here ready to toast the end of Labour. :clap:

You are blinded by ideology. When you can wake up and look calmly and sanely at things we'll all be better off in this discussion. If you think the Lib Dems would be on board for that you're mad but I suspect you'd be giving the same rhetoric if anyone bar Labour had won.
