Re Invention of the Wheel

Over the past couple of months the British Economy has been let me put it politely, on it's knees. With the Pound getting very close to the Euro, and UN Employment at it's highest for 12 years.
The Labour Party have re invented something, and to be fair to them it's genius.

They have managed to not use a word, which they like to associate with the Tories.

And they have come up with something, which they have probably copyrighted.
If you haven't guessed it yet, it's the CREDIT CRUNCH.
I hate it with a passion, in the 80's and early 90's, Labour blamed everything on the RECESSION.
And how everything which went wrong in life, was the nasty Tories fault.

In 1997 New Labour came into power, they inherited a fine set of books from John Major, who is very much under estimated as a leader in my opinion.
And all of a sudden everything what went right with the economy, was all down to Blair and Brown,
You must not forget Brown said under his watch "it would be the end to boom and bust"
There was no mention of the previous administration and how well they left things, well they wouldn't would they.
The fact was the worlds economy was on the up, and things were pretty good. People never had so much money in their back pockets, which in turn encouraged people to lend from the banks.
As House prices went through the roof, and people got into more and more debt, by taking out silly mortgages like 110% of the property, shocking really.
But everything was Rosy in the eyes of Labour, and it was all down to them,or so they told us.
Now today people are in hell of a lot of debt, the banks don't even lend to themselves.
But if you ask the Government it's not their fault, it's other peoples.
They will just smarmingly tell you it's the "CREDIT CRUNCH" and by using these words, they are trying to convince people that we are not in a RECESSION.
And as long as they can convince retailers, and the press to use this catchy slogan then it will become part of everybodys vocab, then everything will be OK.
They tell you, you must tighten your belt.
And to help you out we will put up Council Tax, yeah great help.
But don't worry.... they have even more to dictate to you over, whether it's how much red meat you can eat in a week, or how much sugar is in drinks, what form of transport you are allowed to go on, all for environmental reason of course.
Though it seams the Government manage to find even more money to bale the banks out, or as it should be called RE NATIONALISATION.
Let me put it simple, people shouldn't trust Gordon Brown anymore. Apparently his latest plan is to invest £200 billion of taxpayers money in the "cash strapped" banks. Which means that people are taxed more, don't have any money to save, have no money to put into their bank accounts, which will leave the banks strapped for cash, which will require a bailout from the taxpayer.....
I just hope people realise that at the next General Election, that's if Labour haven't outlawed elections by then.
They kick these crooks out, and return a Conservative administration who historically have followed and fixed every single bankrupt Labour administration.
