Good post again TS.
I was more a Conservative in 2010 although I voted Lib Dem, however I did not hold Labour responsible for the financial banking crash that came.
In fact I feel it may have been worse as David Cameron said Labour was regulating the Banks too much.
So he would have regulated them less had he been in power.
I did feel they could have done more in govt to prepare for harder times but that financial crash hit all major Nations around the World.
I thought Labour did the best it could in the circumstances and also did get us out of recession by 2009 and also had us heading back to around 1% growth too by the time 2010 came in.
