Herman van Rompuy named as European Council President

Adolf would be proud.
Amazing what the power of behind-the-door eurocracy can achieve compared to a World War.
-
Wow and we get the foreign policy post as a consolation prize... so when they force us to take the Euro it's gonna look like we're doing it to ourselves. Sly tactics there

It is amazing the way the left still ignore what went on under James Callaghan and now Blair/Brown yet still hold some hate towards the Conservatives, call Thatcher evil for taking the milk away from the children yet the undemocratic EU and illegal Iraq war - hey no problem!

Conservatives have done NOTHING to help this country.
Health services - Since coming to power 12 years ago the Labour government has trebled its investment in the Health service. This has helped ensure that today record numbers of patients are being treated than under old Tory governments, all thanks to the hard work of our current Labour government.
Pensions & pensioners - What’s the Labour Government ever done for Pensioners or Pensions? Twelve years ago the public sought change from tiresome Tory government. Since being elected the Labour government has helped ensure that today pensioners and those of the future can enjoy dignity and security in their retirement.
Hard working families - What’s the Labour Government done for helping our hard working families? The Labour Government elected into power in 1997 sought change from tiresome Tory legislation. Since being elected Labour have reduced child poverty and supported the hard working families so that raising their families as well as working is a
achievable task.
So what has the Torries done for us? Sold our private sector off, left family's near breaking point...
David Cameron is all mouth and no action. He will adapt the 'Thatcher' way, bringing the nation back to where it was in the late 80's.
The reason why Labour has ranked this Country in so much debt is because of the dam torries. If they did what Labour had done over the last 12 years then we wouldn't be in all of this mess. :eusa_wall

NHS is still as bad it as it has ever been, money does not solve problems. The NHS remains dirty, outdated, centralised and for the money that goes in the value is not coming out.

..is that why pensioners are in appalling conditions and are having to sell their houses to pay for their own care when they have paid taxes all their life?

My family is a hard working family, the families I know are hard working families. I live in Liverpool, supposedly one of Labours strongholds - I can tell you now, people are FED UP with high taxes and constant nanny stateism from this government. Labour has done NOTHING to help people, the only thing it has done has help itself.

Do you not understand why the country needed to be privatised? - are you prepared to blantantly ignore history and carry on with you're marxist dream of socialism and the rest of that complete and utter rubbish which killed more people than anything else ever did on this planet in its short 200 odd year history?

I hope he is like Thatcher but he won't be, another Blair and more lies coming to a country near you!

Better when it was when the torries where in power.

You will find this to be a small majority of people. The Majority of pensioners are in decent care homes and are being looked after by a decent system in which the torrie party didn't even come close up against. There was nothing in place for them when the torries in power leaving them to rot.
Since Council tax was introduced by the "torries" (no surprise there!) it has gone up year by year. It hits pensioners and the poorest in our community the hardest, not to mention an increasing no. of middle income families.
Well i tell you something too! my family is also a hard working familly. Not a single soul in our family have been on benefits. (Even when my brother was made redundant by BT for 3 months he could bring himself to sign on because he felt it wasn't right in doing so) how crazy you might find this, it's a true story.
In my area, the general feeling about Labour is all good, however, having said that, there's areas like CT, income support where people feel that this isn't helping them.
These people, even having said that they are not happy with some of the issues with the current party in power (labour of course) they say they couldn't bring themselves to vote for the torries because they thought they weren't serious and straightforward enough when it comes to what they will do if they ever make it back into power. Many, believe that they (torries) are not being honest with the bills they plan to put into action if they came into power.
I don't follow my parent's my opinions - They don't follow politics i'm
afraid. :(
With you, you seem to turn a blind eye on things thatcher went wrong with when she was in power. What do you think the main reason is that the torries haven't won any of the last 2 elections? Because i would like to know.
-
The Poll Tax was the right thing do to, whether or not the Council Tax system is right I do not know, however why have Labour not rolled this tax back then or lowered this tax? - under Labour tax has risen far higher than any Conservative government ever had taxes at.
12 years to 'unroll the damage those nasty tories did' - why haven't Labour rolled them back?
