Re: liar liar
When you are happy to let your political allegiances, of whatever flavour, override what you know deep down to be right, that's the time to give it up.

Perhaps "what you know deep down to be right" should be your political allegiance.

Tend to agree, those of the Red persuasion have selected amnesia prior to May 2010

Take a look at where GBs education standards with regards to other countries, seems that we are now way down the league in all subjects as opposed to doing quite well previously, education, education education my arse

Not quite, Jaysay. However, some of us can find more than one argument against the Conservatives than the number of years they were in power as the universal insult.
I have now heard quite a few financial experts on BBC Parliament and various other politics programmes describe the Labour model for clambering out of recession to have been a decent route to go down. That isn't to say it was the quickest or that they were absolved of any blame this side of the pond, but the phrase 'too far, too fast' is almost becoming a mantra even with the impartial observers with what is happening to us now.
In East Lancashire alone, they've managed to help another 300+ onto the dole in the past month. Not exactly progress, is it? You'll defend the Tories to the hilt, citing '13 years' every time, but what we're boiling down to here is that it's getting too expensive to manufacture anything and rapidly rising retail prices are laying waste to countless staff.
The Tories are doing this here and now, there's no getting around it.

Re: liar liar
I don't know why you bother arguing about which party was/is worst.
They are both going to tax you to the limits of poverty one way or another.
All that differs between them is the rate at which they will do it.
The global financial crisis has been engineered by the Rothschild dynasty, in order to ensure that you are busy worrying whether you will survive, whilst greater restrictions of freedom are implemented.
It is all about control of the masses (with a factor of population reduction thrown in for good measure)

Who's worried?
So what if those nasty Jews/lizards/whatever other group are currently conspiring for world domination, are out to control us.
Who cares?
I'm a fatalist.
I'm going to party like it's 1999.
It's what date?
I've missed it?
Oh well, that's fate then.
