That does not necessarily follow. It is the policies that any specific government introduced that are telling. We could argue all day on what they are but in terms of society, demographics and population increase we are looking at NewLabour as initiating policies that affected those most. We could also argue the overall benefits of that increase as well as the overall negative effect and balance them up but in terms of having and keeping some form of cohesive society the biggest changes have been post 97 and they are each about 50% culpable as very few view what we have as a change for the better. More excuses from a Rightist ^^ Its the reason the UK never quite makes it. Like making the rich richer rather than making sure the NHS and Education were properly funded. I know facts are uncomfortable but since 97 we have changed dramatically as a country. Our capital city is 38% foreign born and in 1991 it was about 21% and then zoomed up to 37% by 2011. One decade of demographic change where London was 60% white British in 2001 to 37% white British in 2011. These changes are focused on the Blair years and represent the biggest demographic change of any reasonable area we have ever seen in any recent period of history. If you do not have rich people then you do not have money to make sure things are properly funded. |

Looking at the massive pay rises being handed out I'd say the Unions are already back in charge. All we need now is beer and sandwiches in No 10. Let's see, as the Tories have dominated parliament for 70% of the time since 1951 they cannot escape most of the blame for the country being in the mess it is in. So I suggest you stop whinging and wait for outcomes of the Labour approach. Reading your posts one might think your only intention is to denigrate Labour, which doesn't seem to be a very grown up thing to do. Sunshine - I have already lived through the Labour approach. Wilson Callaghan, Blair and now Starmer.. ..I know what will happen - trust me.  |
