More people trust Cameron on the economy than anyone else

IronWolf

Interesting poll found that David Cameron, and the Conservatives, are the most trusted when it comes to the economy. I'm glad the British public aren't complete morons.

(Reuters) - Despite a stagnating economy, an austerity drive, and a squeeze on living standards, more of the British public trust Prime Minister David Cameron to make the right economic decisions than his opposition rivals, a poll showed on Tuesday.

So those polled were given a theoretical choice of being shot to death, stabbed to death or hanged to death and chose the gun.

You might want to reconsider your comments a out the current government's suitability Ironwolf.

The coalition is now cutting slower than Labour would have done (despite having called those plans reckless and dangerous). The recent mortgage support is perhaps even more reckless than Labour's policies as all this will do is restoke the bubble, causing a bigger crash when interest rates rise / when support is withdrawn.

After saying there is no magic money tree, it seems as though Cameron and Osborne have found one.

That there sums it up.
C'mon though, who fancies giving Ed Balls the keys to see what he'll do :rotfl:

Any thinking person knows the majority of European Governments are very unpopular and that includes the socialist administrations such as Hollandes.

I find it a very infantile mindset not to take account of the fact tough times almost guarantees an unpopular Gov't.

Trusting Cameron more than Milliband on the economy is a bit like saying horse sh1te is ever so slightly less smelly than cow sh1te.

(still sh1te, at the end of the day)
