Gordon Brown - yeh or nay

What do you think of our future prime minister? Are you happy that this guy may be representing the UK in the world? Personally I think he is a tax happy, bland, devious politician. As a result the conseravtives are a shoe-in for the next election, heaven forbid if Labour win that election.

I'll say it again, I don't think Cameron and the conservatives will make any better job of it, but I really don't see Brown wining the election for Labour.

I think the tories are needed so swing the balance a little back the oher way - ie lower taxes, more efficiency, less bureaucracy, more business focus. Otherwise our economy may well seriously slip under the current administration.

I think the economy is doing all right at the moment. The Tories will just give a bit more money to those who don't really need it so I can't say I'd prefer them.

Why doesn't anyone want to give the Liberal Democrats a try? :(


The economy is doing okish now, I think it could do a bit better, lower taxed and more pro business. I think the economy is doing worse and will do worse because of Labour.

The Lib Dems are too left for my likeing - too pro Europe and too anti business = not good for the economy.

Edit I just realise what he is - a smug tit!

It would be nice to have a party which did the best thing for the country rather than the economy/business... and no the two things are not the same.

Whats is right for the economy is right for the country pretty much. Obviously not too far, but a healthy economy = prosperity = better services = happier people.

So goes the theory and conventional wisdom, but it by no means always works out that way. Our current open-door mass immigration policy is entirely about providing cheap short term economic growth and pleasing business by keeping wage inflation down, but it sure ain't helping the country or its people in a real sense.

Sure - I suspect the tories will be better at that too!

Welcome to OcUK.

Enjoy Your stay.

Labour/Blair/Brown have also done a lot of good in this country, especially with helping to provide services to the deprived areas and provide access to these services to the people who need them to help try and make their lives better and maybe turn some of these people around and help break the cycle they have been born into.

Yes, all of us with our comfortable homes, clothes on our back, food in our fridges and common sense all complain when we dont get anything ourselves... is it ourselves who need the additional support?

Yes, lets all vote Tory and keep the less fortunate/unlucky where they belong, in the gutter :rolleyes:

LOL! If its anyone who will put is in the gutter its Labour, bad for business = bad for the economy = kless clothes on YOUR back.;)

And Labour have helped people in poorer areas??? They have centralised Hospitals, shifting services away from less populous areas. Taxes have also gone UP.
