re: How Much Power Has Murdoch Got?

So you have said, however there is no record of you EVER saying this before the current government. In fact in all the threads you started, none are regarding the last government and how bad Blair was.
And I could find NO posts regarding how bad things were and how much you hated the last lot either.
It's a great thing the search function
You are fooling nobody

You mean the New Labour Party.......which if you care to look at in detail, were a pale version of the Tory Party.
To support the policies that you might think the Labour Party(AKA New Labour) would uphold, then you would have to find a candidate from the Socialist party.
These days there is very little difference between any of the 3 major parties...they just hope that you will have been so brainwashed by your parents, the media or other influences,(or be so dim) that you won't notice how they have become like one another.
None of them have any real liking for the electorate once they have got into the Palace of Westminster....none of them will listen to the concerns of the public...they pretend to listen, and issue sound bites and platitudes, none of which mean a thing.

re: How Much Power Has Murdoch Got?
national minimum wage brought millions of workers out of poverty.i remember people in care homes working for 2.50 an hour, people in factories working for 2.50 an hour, people working in shops for 2.50 an hour and that was in the early 1990s with high interest rates and inflation people were struggling.people have short memories.

everyone more or less of a certain age remembers that, it still don't detract from the fact that margaretp is right, they are all peeing in the same pot, only the blinkered or the blind fail to see it. yep theres some worse than others, but the fact is all are bad.
