That's if you actually believe the Tory hype about the state of the economy. When your beloved Margaret came to power she spent a good 4/5 years blaming the previous Labour government for everything. She didn't seem too concerned about her own governments shortcomings.
As for Blair, he was a breath of fresh air for quite some time until he became the warmongering fool that I will admit he became, that's why I ceased supporting the Labour party although I do think they are electable now. Brown as Chancellor, however, was in charge of one of the best periods, economically, that this country has seen in years.
As for your reply, Less, you are quite right, I'm still coming to grips with the fact that some threads on here seem to have more shelf life than Tutankhamun's bandages.
