    I'm finding you a little bit bizzare.

    Is there anything we could help you with? Honest, you can let it all out and we'll do out best to help.

    How many other names you got?

    Perhaps I could help you with some of my rental properties in Babbacombe?

    Actually to be serious for a moment I do remember the Tories. I bloody hated them. When the day came and Tony Blair first got into power I was ecstatic, NuLabour a new beginning, etc.

    But now. It's quite sad really. Good bye Mr. Brown. Hello Tories again.

    Why do you think it will be different?

    History has proved that nothing changes by changing any government.

    The prevailing conditions remain the same.
    Quite so, so why did you start another thread the other day, stating that you had done so well under Labour, and fearing the return of the Tories. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1588141

    From my observations, the person with the most to lose when Labour leave Govt is Jaqui Smith, are YOU Jacqui?

    If so according to the banter here some folk think you are Rochdale's OH, which means this time last year he was watching some soft porno on TV:D

    What will be different is the way in which the problem is tackled. The Tories will deem that the generation that got us in this mess should pay for it, rather than future generation(s), so it will be more painful, for a shoter period of time. What they wont tell us is that it will be the ordinary Joe who will have to pay for the excesses of the filthy, fiddling rich. I dont mind the fithy idle rich, thats old money and they are not obscene with it in the way the recent rich are)

    Clown inherited the best British economic outlook since the War.

    The fool will leave office with everything in taters, the worst economic situation since the Great Depression.
