Why do you demonise this countrys younger generation do you not know there more people in work now then there ever has been? But all you can do is call them freckles lazy so and so.
Demonising gingers is something that's always gone on in this country.

Lol oran what has that got to do with the price of butter TTL, in view of the fact that I've known you a long time I'm not going to take the piss, I'm hardly a professor of English myself. However, I think you should check out the difference between feckless, and freckles  |

someone who supports new labour calling himself to the left has a facking cheek coming on a forum like this talking about lack of housing .As ever , labour and their supporters thinking voters are morons without a memory.
There is, of course, only a housing crisis at all because Gordon Brown did everything in his power to sustain the house-price bubble created by the Tories in the 1980s, and because during 13 years in power Labour built vastly less new social housing than even the Tories and did nothing about Right To Buy, which destroyed the public-housing stock.

Well according to The new economics foundation, without a change in Government policy 21.4 million people will be living below a socially acceptable living standard. This ranges from people who cannot afford to eat, keep clean, and stay warm and dry to those falling substantially short of a decent standard of living and likely to be experiencing some form of material deprivation where they cannot afford certain essential items. Sorry, dont believe that for a minute. The idea that almost 30% of the entire UK population are destitute is patent nonsense - ffs this is half term and the airports are packed with people flying away for an autumn break. We now have a whole industry of people delivering fast food to people who cannot be arsed to get off their sofas. If you believe that we currently have Victorian levels of poverty then you really have lost the plot. You are a right winger in denial and as such are not really to be taken too seriously by sensible people. |

Housing that has fallen into disrepair mainy because the older generation has let them fall into degeneration... You know that was one of the reasons for selling off council properties? Because councils were leaving properties empty and derelict. Social housing doesn't solve that problem. And we don't have a housing problem, we have an over-population problem caused by Labour opening the floodgates to endless immigration. As I said on my other thread: We will never raise enough taxes to solve these problems. |

And that's always the problem with left whingery - when lived experience runs contrary to the rhetoric. But then left whingers don't live in the real world and project their failures onto others. |

NL did not flog off all our gold. The proceeds were used in a number of ways: Part of the proceeds were used to buy currency reserves at a time when currencies were boss, Dollar, Yen and one other, which were then placed in the reserves with the remainder of the gold. The currencies then earned interest where gold did not. Some of the proceeds were used to reduce the National Debt, thus reducing the ongoing interest paid on that debt. It wasn't Brown's finest moment, but it wasn't quite as disastrous as his enemies made it out to be. Incidentally the value of gold is declining. Untrue , standard minor fluctuations but vastly higher than at the Brown fiasco The price of gold is currently more than double that when Brown left office in 2010 and roughly 7 times higher than when he stupidly sold off UK gold on the market www.royalmint.com/gold-price/?period=AllTimeTotal lefty BS |

Have you ever started a business Squeezy? Yes, rather successfully thanks.  Whether to start a business in the UK will be based on 1, The assumption that like the rest of the first world countries it is safe to do so. 2, That there is a market and a profit to be made. Agreed. Only if tax rates were extraordinarily higher than the rest of the civilised world would it be considered. Then we'd best make sure they're not, hadn't we? Which was rather my point. |

NL went more for affordable homes than Council built homes. New Labour build more affordable homes in 2009. "Between 1997 and 2010, some 350,000 housing association dwellings were built. If we look at both housing association homes and council houses, Labour built more affordable properties in 2009 than the Conservatives did in each year between 1987 and 1990. On this front, the Coalition government is now following their lead. |
