DEMOCRATIC DAVE.

The Conservative's manifesto appears to be offering something less than a dictatorial tome on how we should lead our lives; to give us more of a say in services and education is a start. However, Cameron has form; it isn't long since he reneged on his promise regarding the Lisbon Treaty, the treaty along with over population, happen to be the two 'biggies' after the economy. Should he finish up as the PM, Cameron must therefore inform us, as far as possible, the disastrous state of the country's finances. This will give the voter the feel of what is required over the next decade, at least to help correct the problem.

Brown, on the other hand, is suddenly blaming the Banks and the Tories for our economic woes. Let us consider this accusation more closely. One of Incapability Brown's first moves was to give the responsibility of interest rates to the Bank of England, simultaneously removing its overseeing and the policing of the country's finances; this being passed onto the the newly formed Financial Services Authority. The FSA is nothing more than an extension of Government. By the years 2002/3, it was obvious that more money was being loaned than was available. If the author could see this, why not the then Chancellor of the Exchequer? Answer: he enjoyed the ridiculous explosion in property prices, generating what he called productivity, the stamp duty. This was only possible due to the cheap money generated by ridiculously low interest rates. The rest is history.



AVOID A BROWN/CLEGG TRIP.
