    They had how long to do something about it? Something like 13 years wasn't it?

    The general population of the UK is stupid, Labour have taken the lead in the polls already just because the Coalition haven't fixed the EU crisis 'now'. Such short memories.

    When you think Ed Miliband can't get any dumber . . .

    This guy won't get elected.The poor are the ones to suffer.The greed people,the ones who think they are better off sticking with the exploiters, can't see what they will endure should they fall off the radar.Or get old.They think they will work until they are 70.The bankers will but not most people.Still it happens all the time,give to charity but blame those without work for being lazy.Some logic.

    #6 Thats what I like about Cristina and Chavez, they come to power by inspiring the people and so avoid “crawling to the devil”
