Bugsy Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 can he?.Now two respected female MP's have come forward and spoken out it can only be a matter of time before the muppet disappears.If anyone thinks this man is still worthy and "did a good job" as chancellor, take a look at how he actually did it. He sold the family silver (gold reserves actually). The party conference should be interesting.................[:)] . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I realise as he's no longer an MP, he can't be Prime Minister again - but would you want Blair back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceni Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Are you sure ? You must be too young to remember Smart Alec Douglas-Whom, though he was a member of that other place, who had to find a safe seat, turf out the incumbent, con the public into voting for him etc before becoming an MP. Though he lasted less than a year before Mr Gannex.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tegwini Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Hi allI can just cope with him as PM, Tony not that much better or different. It's what he did as chancellor (allowed, permitted ... by Tony?) that has caused the UK's problems - and he messed up over 10 years. Some seem to have forgotten that. Whoever was PM they would still have Gordon's mess-ups to sort out.Dave, also a muppet in my opinion, will struggle for years to solve the UK's economic & social problems too. And, I certainly never voted for Tony!RegardsTegwini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose (& Greyman) Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 [quote user="Bugbear"]He sold the family silver (gold reserves actually). [/quote] ...and stole my family silver i.e. all the tax credits from my pension scheme. The biggest robbery of all time and virtually unnoticed by the public.

Gastines Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I think we could all make a very long list of who we don't want or who we don't think is capable. How about a list of some intelligent people who we think could get the place back on it's feet?After discussing this for some minutes with my wife Nobody came quickly to mind. If someone suggested having a clear out from the top echelons of the civil service/diplomatic corps etc ,an end to inheritance tax,finish all the hundreds of quangoes, and make all the Lottery money go to some public fund ,make a maximum salary payable to charity directors. I could go on. I'm amazed at what is dished out by the Government and Local Councils and the fact that the UK public seem to take it all lying down.The dustbin fiasco being a good example,if the councils provided a decent 2 bin service would they need to spend thousands on premises,vehicles and inspectors to police householders? What the devil are all the Council Tax increase going to?Ron? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trees 2 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 The really depressing side to all this is that it won't matter WHO gets in at the next election, for two very big reasons:Firstly, the present economy built on sand, which will take some sorting, especially after Labour's scorched earth policy that they seem to be into at the moment.And secondly, WHO ELSE IS THERE? It's a fact of life that all politicians these days seem to be in it for what it can do for them, their families, their friends and NOT what THEY can do for us.Even local councillors are becoming rich men on the back of more and more council tax increases; they have allowances that make the electors' hair curl, and more allowances for so-called "cabinet" posts.Can someone explain to me when these local guys who we used to elect to SERVE us became our masters?

Russethouse Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I guess a Milleband is a when, not if ? Ed Balls could be a possible but seems very close to Gordon......Harriet ?No, I don't want TB back and could he afford the sacrifice ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Thanks Renaud. The Labour Conference (starting on 20th) should be interesting... (on the other hand, probably not...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gastines Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 If he thinks he is the only person capable of doing the job I can't understand why he doesn'y welcome a party election even if he is too scared to call a General Election. Might just get the point home to him.Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
