I could agree however that there is an imbalance as to some religious tolerance of some, while not wanting to open up a religious battle here, lets say Christian children no longer get what are called sort of holydays off while those of other faiths in some areas or cases likely do.
I do get where you are coming from.

However, if you think Labour had or have any intention of really privatising the NHS,well see what happens if the Conservatives get their hands on the NHS for another 5 years.
It will be clearly seen,once their hidden agenda towards the NHS comes forward again,after the election is over, what privatisation will really take place.
Not this time as a stopgap,or small holding in the NHS but throughout it completely.

While maybe it is right or not to hold Labour responsible for the crisis that hit almost everywhere in the financial world, due to the bankers creating the banking/financial crisis and in part contributing to the global recessions that came with it.

Labour had, to be fair, 11 continuous years of growth and no recessions between 1997 to 2007.
The criticism I would make of Labour was not of economic incompetence but lack of investment in the economy, even when it wasn't needed to invest in it,to ensure protection for any dark crisis that may come along.
Hello Joey, I agree with you that the NHS will be privatised more under Conservatives, but I just felt like pointing out that it's not safe under Labour or UKIP.

I do hate how Conservatives keep privatising all the UK's big firms and Health Services though.
