I have no problem with people criticising this lot for what they've done but doing that whilst totally ignoring the reasons why much of it is being done and what went on before is absurd and undermines any valid point trying to be made, if indeed there is one and it's not just another incoherent one-sided rant.
Do you realise why Labour are being so quiet about their policies and failures? Has it occurred to you that there's going to be more of the same under them or do you think they have another magic spell to make it all go the same way as the cycle of boom and bust? The mess we're now in is going to hurt people here in just the same way as it's hurting people in most of Europe and for years to come. Anyone who's in denial about that needs to wake up and smell the coffee. It really is no good coming here and ranting on endlessly then sticking your fingers in your ears when people point out the bias, contradictions and hypocrisy in what you've posted.
Post away about the failures of this govt. but at least do so coherently and have the common sense to question the alternatives on offer, that way we can have the forum you claim to want - one in which sensible discussion of FACTS can be engaged in. Who knows, if we all do that we may wind up with better government to boot. Now wouldn't that be nice.

It would be nice, but there's no need to point anything at me (not sure why you have). Firstly, I don't really care much about politics but for your arguments sake, 'yes I do' to the bolds above. Secondly you've missed the point of my post.
This is a cable forum, not a the Tory party appreciation society, I can hold my hands up and say I know nothing about politics, Europe, whatever as I have too much on my plate to even bother to spend time trying to understand anything about these subjects but I do have the common sense to know what is going on. And I'm sure a lot of people here are the same. But it doesn't or shouldn't stop people from posting their 'rants' as you call them if they are valid and which are affecting people (myself included) right now.
Of course I'm very interested in what is happening right now, how things are affecting people right now, and it is good to discuss these things and also in terms for those that aren't political experts, but this place seems just against anything bad against the Tories and it's always the same, eg blame the last govt etc.
Arthurs posts are sometimes annoying, one sided etc but he is voicing what a lot of people will not say here especially on this forum because of how harsh this place can be. So for one I welcome his posts.
