I couldn't give a flying **** about slating Blair or Brown because they were made from the same mould as the present Tory government. There were only two options after the world crash... sell the gold and prop up the banks or drop neoliberal politics forever and move away from a market run government.

We can't argue about how much Brown spent without knowing and understanding what led us up to the financial crisis. There was a housing bubble in the U.S. The financial industry was de-regulated and so the housing bubble burst and led to the worst financial crisis since the crash of 29 and that financial crisis quickly made its way across the Atlantic.

What Brown did was no different to what our present neoliberal government would of done or will do if it happens again... and it will happen again. When we get a world crash, everyone's deficit sours. The Labour deficit wasn't caused by overspending, it was caused by the economic crash being put into the hands of a neoliberal government.

People who don't support the Tories are not going to think Theresa May is very good, and all those who feel the same will support them. Meanwhile, the alternative is terrorist-appeasing Corbyn. If Corbyn had been in power in the 1930s I can imagine him returning from Germany waving a piece of paper and talking about peace in our time.

You support Hamas, I don't support you.

And another thing.... The further we get away from Labour's total mismanagement of the economy when they were in, the more it can be blamed on the global crash. People have such short memories.

People will dismiss this because it's not in the right newspaper... while posting stuff from The Canary as a reliable news source.

If Corbyn ever gets in we're screwed.

I have faith in the wisdom of crowds. The British people will never vote for a terrorist sympathiser.

i wish i could say 'this election can't come soon enough' but once it's over the bickering and arguments will just continue on brexit instead. i suspect that myself and many others might lose interest in politics altogether, the whole process has become so miserable over the past few years, i'm really fed up with it.

I think only a Conservative politician has done that,Neville Chamberlain.
Very cheap shot from you but up to now history only records a Conservative leader being so fooled as to that one.

It's not a case of it not being in 'the right' newspaper..........it's not in a 'newspaper' at all. It's the ****ing Mail, which is basically like the Sun for people who know their alphabet and can count to ten (if they have all of their digits of course).

No word about quotes from The Canary though, right?

Yes, Neville Chamberlaine was a misguided idiot and a Tory. Corbyn is a misguided idiot and he's Labour. I don't see any cheap shot, I see a valid analogy.

Except in that, it's your Conservative party that had a leader who has already done in history what you would only suppose Corbyn would.
With no base to that view,other than personal prejudice against the man.

How could you say for sure Corbyn or any other Labour/other Party leader would have rolled over in the 30s.

I suppose this is directed at me as the only member who quotes from the canary... What wave I quoted that you have found unreliable?

You support Hamas, I don't support you.
Our country is in Business with Saudi Arabia And we can't act like our constant support of Israel and their wars is all above board too. We really aren't in a position to look down at someone else's evil friends.

FYI. I'm not saying those are worse than Hamas or the IRA, but the point still stands(well Saudi is).

Ah but that'll be seen as okay though because at present it's a Conservative govt doing so.
Really good point however Brother Leon.
