There you go again with your right wing, anti-Labour views. What, exactly, is wrong with John Prescott being in charge? Tony Blair is in constant contact and John Reid seems to be managing things OK. While I appreciate that you are anti-Blair, consider some of the real policies that Labour have implemented - garuanteed 4 weeks of holiday, paternaty leave, minimum wage, bank holiday not taken as A/L (coming in soon) and a horde of other workers rights. Hospital waiting lists down from 18 months to 18 weeks. More doctors, more nurses. Class sizes down to below 30 in primary schools, double the funding in secondary schools. Hard, sensible decisions taken on pensions. Real support for pensioners (winter fuel allowance) and family tax credits. The system is working well and the country is prospering as a result of this Labour government.
Sound Labour to you? It does to me. They (and TB's ego) have made mistakes, but surely you must accept that they are doing better than Thatcher (I'll be at her state funeral with a giant "Coal not dole" banner if she gets one - it's a disgrace it has even been mentioned, let alone considered).
