As a single, childless man on a six-figure salary, if Labour form the next government and I pay the same or less percentage of my money in tax by the end of his administration I hereby declare that I will eat one of Mr Milliband's freshly cooked up turds.

If I was in your position I'd be very carefully looking at emigration prospects. Canada/US/New Zealand/Gulf States.

I'm a married man earning enough to have to pay back in tax all the Child Benefit that my wife recieves. The only thing stopping us from emigrating to Canada is the still living body of my mother-in-law; we she goes, we're outa here!

Plan A seemed to be ride it out, our economy has been stagnant.
things are on the turn, but not because of policies implemented by the govt, you or i could have sat in number 11 and just waited for the financial markets to sort themselves out.
would have been the same no mater who was in power and it will be the same after next years election. Political parties are still in love with the city no mater what they say.
Rubbish. Labour saw absolutely nothing wrong with the way they were running the economy and lambasted Osborne at every turn for every decision he made, citing that we should spent our way out of the recession.

They were wrong, Osborne was right. When was the last time that gromit Miliband criticised their economic policy ? not for a while that I can recall. Funny that.

I cannot believe for a second that Labour wouldn't have continued spending with abandon and put us in a worse position than we are now.
that post appears to have nothing to do with what i was talking about.
