Thanks Eddie,

IMO we will pay in the not too distant future for those stats.

The underlying UK economy is still failing, rates are kept artificially low in order to delay a downturn and the strength of the pound is affecting our markets.

When the economy implodes (because it cannot be sustained) I dread to think of the consequences. I think the government are just delaying the inevitable.

I think GB would quite like to lose the next election and pass the 'black spot' onto the next lot of pirates.

yeah i agree eddie when i left school also unemployment was three million and there was no work
How anyone can say it is worse now have short memories people under 40 voted the labour government in because they hated what the torys
did to affect the chances of that age group i really believe if the torys had stayed in power i wouldnt have what i have today
The 80s made people more selfish

SueM.
The stats that I was on about are low unemployment, low inflation and low interest rates At my age I grow up in the days of high inflation when I left school unemployment was over 3 million, so when I look back I feel that things are a lot better now economiclly in this country.
Cheers Eddie.

I have,nt a clue,Re Cameron. Re People with most cash seem to complain the most. There are lots of people "Comfortably Off" But They,ve worked damned hard all their lives for it,only for most of it to be filched off them by various Governments.i/e Pensions,Billions Stolen By Brown,and mostly from hard working people.I think they have a good reason to moan. **M**.
