Red face It All Starts on Wednesday ....

Wednesday will see the Tories kick off the biggest cut-backs the UK has ever seen.

Of course, the rich will see no pain.

The poor will be heavily hit by the VAT increase as it takes a larger proportion of their income. While the Tory Party Leader hides ££££££££££'s from the Tax Man.

The injustice stinks ... although a tough stance needs to be taken to claw back our deficit.

Get ready, hold onto your hats, this is going to hurt ..................

Cannot be worse than how Labour has bent us over and raped us with no lube, in seemingly "good-times".
To not only leaving us sore, but leaving us with a huge amount of STD`s.

The treatment we are about to receive is for those STD`s, that the **** which is Labour denies having given to us, and proclaims to be holier than thou.

Complete to$$ers in the Labour party!!!


Oh and Labours way out is quote "RAISE TAXES, and LOWER SPENDING", hmmmmmmmmm what a bunch of to$$ers!!

Labour saved us from meltdown ... don't ever forget that! PLUS, we saw the longest spell of growth under Labour - 10 years of the Good Times.

Labour put their finger up our bottom, then when we didnt grimace enough, the rest of the fist went up. I wish they had taken their Rolex off.

Hmmm I'm thinking you are just saying this tosh to get a response.

Labour have left us with the biggest peacetime deficit and debt in our history, it's a total scandal how they have done this. Even now we learn of them wasting billions in the military budget just because of planning incompetence.

I will never vote Labour ever.

No button pushing .............. the world is in the poooooooo - to say it's Labours fault is pathetic at best.

As for the pain about to be unleashed on Wednesday ... that's a fact.

Urm yeah right. Lets borrow on the company credit card, lets all get as much as we can from the expenses forms, and lets throw money around.

Lest we forget that Labour borrowed so much (during the BOOM years), that it spends MORE on debt repayment, than on the NHS or Defence.

WELL DONE LABOUR!!

All you do is look for arguments, for you to deny the utter shambolic mess that the Labour cronies left us in, for some cheap point scoring out of people making hard decisions is truly pathetic. And indicative of the whole mentality of the sudo socialist cause, blame EVERYONE apart bar themselves, and then try and brainwash their supporters into mindless shows of loyalty.

Thank god we got rid of Chairman Brown, and Comrade Blair was removed in a 100% bona fide soviet coup, as those idiots created the crap we find ourselves in. Burying our heads in the sand and assuming it will all be ok, will never work. Standing up, making the hard decisions, and gripping the bull by the horns is what we should have done years ago.

Its a big $hit pie, and pretending it smells of roses, or assuming the rich should eat more is fairy tales. We NEED those people to create the wealth in the country, NOT drive them abroad.

I suspect you weren't complaining as Labour delivered you immense wealth on the back of a rapidly growing economy?

The WORLD, yes that's right, WORLD got into trouble .... the history books will probably show that Gordon Brown led the world back from the brink.

I'm a tad disappointed in them, to he honest.
I see no cuts in immigration, and that surely must be one hell of a strain on finances.

I'm hopeful that the cuts will hit the right areas .... sadly, I suspect that the rich (like Lord Ashcroft, Tory Party Chairman) will avoid paying their share!! And that should make EVERYONE mad!

Yeah I was, credit being given too freely, money wasted and thrown around like confetti.

And Brown will be remembered as the CHANCELLOR that led us into a near melt down, that the Tories had to clear up Labours mess yet again!!

Some of us realised that Dickens was DEAD RIGHT.

Where does that sound familiar??

Also its during the good times we need to consider the bad times, NOT max out the company credit card (our taxes and money borrowed from around the world!!).

Labour were spending money like a drunken sailor during a 'supposed' economic boom. It's INSANE looking back at it. Why did they do this and what were they thinking? And to think Labour once had the 'golden rule' about borrowing. Crazy.

If they had moderated the housing boom back in say 2005 rather than keeping rates low (and irresponsibly stoking the bubble), and if they had not spent so much on the stupid public sector we would be in MUCH better shape now.
