Bad decisions (IMO)

The Iraq war (yes yes, I know many think it was right - but even if you agree it was right for us to go in, it was not handled properly, the aftermath was completely ballsed up, the intel was crap & they bloody knew it was & didn't care or mention, & it seems more & more likely that it was illegal afterall)

Tuition Fees (yes, the Deering Report recommended bringing in Tuition Fees - which Labour then implemented - but it also said Grants should not be scrapped - which Labour ignored)

Top-up fees

PPP for the Tube

All this PFI stuff (e.g. Jarvis & schools)

City Academies (stupid idea, & they're officially failing!)

Creeping privatisation of the NHS

All these NHS targets & the mad drive to artificially keep down waiting lists

"Choice" (screw choice, we want quality)

"House Arrest" et al

ID Cards

Super-casinos

Lack of Lords reform


and many more
