Lynne, yes, of course I do.  But the Tory's use the shortermism of market greed to get votes and gain power. Unlike Britain since Thatcher, Western Europe invests into its manufacturing and industry bases.  Wheras Britain relies on markets, and wages driven down to the lowest they can get. Britain has been a short term, insecure, low waged, low income tax economy for over 30 years since ...

Britain needs some socialism following over 30 years of right wing Torysm where income tax cuts have been lavished on top earners, and the rest of us have had to endure means tested handouts.  This doesn’t represent a fair spread of wealth, this represents inequality, unfairness, and social injustice, yet it is legal, it is a political system.  And “Socialism has been made a dirty word in today’s ...

We would be in a much worse situation if Labour were in power.""

""Well I think one rate for all is fair, the more you earn the more you are taxed, so should keep everyone happy. 50% tax is totally horrendous and will stop high flyers coming to this country to set up business and provide the jobs that everyone wants. Labour should be banned for being constantly cluesless, useless and a danger to this country's wellbeing"" Paul, ive quoted you ...

Paul, do you want more and more low waged insecure private sector jobs taking the place of the more well paid public sector ? Also do you want the NHS privatised ?, with more and more insecurity felt by all NHS workers, including nurses and doctors ?
