Re: The next five years
Deary,Deary me, but aren't we the prophet of Doom & Gloom this morning ?
You never know you may be surprised at what happens, & if you're truly honest, life under labour wasn't all Beer & skittles now was it ? well one good thing Labour has now got its first female leader (although temporary) My aren't you the lucky ones ! Harriet (Harridan) Harman
Now why does the expression "frying pans & fire" spring to mind ???
Harman takes over until next leader is chosen - UK Politics, UK - The Independent

Re: The next five years
Sorry ! Must correct myself, 1994 you had the marvelous Ms Margaret Beckett at the helm ! You can certainly pick 'em ! So in actual fact, Harridan Harman is your 2nd female leader ! What a shining example the Labour Party is to equality !

Re: The next five years
the torys may not be able to sell the new hospitals but they can neglect to fund them or equip them.
wont be long before were back to people dying in hospital corridoors on trollys waiting for a hospital bed
funding to the north will be cut first as it is well documented cameron hates the north
when the cuts start coming will be the time we will see what level of influence if any clegg and his party have in policy

Mancie, Mancie, Mancie, If you look it is not a purely Tory government, to get what they want they have had to make concessions to the Lib/Dems to achieve their aim. That being the case Cameron & his crew aren't going to have free rein to do as they please because Clegg & his mates will constantly be looking over the Torys shoulder to see what they're upto.

As to staying in Germany, that was my intention ! I've had over 26 years here & have quite happily settled. I have no intention of returning to UK to stay until there has been a drastic turnaround in the Countries fortunes & administration, irrespective of which political party may be in power at that time. Mancie, I take no offense at your tirade but find that offensive comments & abuse are the last resort of the inarticulate Scoundrel

Re: The next five years
If you mix the colours blue and orangey yellow you get khaki, the Persian word for earthy or dusty, and from which we also get the babyish word for ploppies, ca-ca.
Let's hope we don't all end up in the ca-ca.

Gordon Brown was labour was he not?...he robbed me.....of pension money and then to add insult to injury he slapped me with a double tax bill.....(when the tax rate went up from 10p in the pound to 20p in the pound) is that looking after the poorer members of society? Because I don't think it is.
I am not Tory, I am not Labour, I am not Liberal/democrat.
I just want a party that will do the right thing.....not rob the tax payers and smile while they are doing it...and try to prevent us( the electorate) from finding out about the fraud that was going on with expenses.
We are in this unholy mess because Labour took the regulation of the banks away from the bank of England....and placed it in the hands of the toothless,ineffectual FSA.
The labour government knew 7 months before the doo-doo hit the fan that there were severe problems with the banking system...but did nothing(or at least, nothing that we are aware of).
The Labour government have made it an easy option for immigrants to come here and claim benefits that they have not earned.
Dear Gordon told Mrs Duffy that a million people left Britain each year to go to European countries.....maybe they did, but they went there with some financial plan of how to support themselves....they did not go overseas to claim benefits as soon as they got over the doorstep.
I am sick of hearing about families that come here and get large houses cars, and all the mod cons...funded by us.....the tax payer.
That is not to say that I want the genuinely vulnerable to be denied help.
We need a huge shake up of the welfare system......and claiming benefits should not be seen as a lifetime support/career option.
