Launched on the set of Coronation Street.
For those of you who don't know, it's a far-fetched piece of fiction popular with northerners. Coronation Street, howver, is a TV programme.

Labour would crank up taxing, borrowing and spending like they always do.
That's all you need to know about their manifesto. |

Many were unaffected by the recession. I think it's too early to put labour back in power before the economy has been straightened out. It's too big risk. |

It has to work that way.
The rich do well and the economy grows, which provides more money to be spent by the government. If you hammer the rich too much you choke off growth. That's why the rich do as well under Labour as they do under the Tories. |

They are going to increase spending on the NHS but at the same time allow the population of this country to increase by an estimated 250 000.

I've no data so this is a pure guess, but it seems to me generally:
people who are successful in their private sector careers (accountants, lawyers, entrepreneurs, medical consultants, bankers etc) are conservative supporters. people who live in public sector land paid by the taxpayers are labour supporters. (AND people who are numpties and believe anything are liberal supporters. people who are plain stupid and idealistic are green party supporters) On the con & lab are there any stats to support the private cons v. public labs sector tendency, or should I just be prejudiced, without having no info? |

Partially right mememe
People who actually believe any of this stuff and get into party politics like it was their favourite rock group or the sex they had last night they are talking about instead of a bunch of venal clowns with about as much plausibility as a call girl's multiple orgasm .....most of the population |

I can't wait for the year 2099 when my house will be worth £1,000,000 and I can drop dead and leave it to my daughters with no inheritance tax.
They may need the money at 117 and 115 years old. |
