well let me see Tony Blair:

Lied about the war
Created foundation hospitals
Increased higher education fees
Allowed buy to let mortgages (which has priced me and many others out of the market)
Was the Creator of ASBO'S (cos they really work)
Created around 1,000 new pieces of legislation that's more than any other government.
Oh and his people let out some of the most dangerous crimminals rather than deport them.

So I'd say yes!

Margaret Thatcher turned the county around after Labour put us into debt. She got us out of debt and had to do what she had to do for the countries sake. NOW Labour has put the country back in bloody debt again. Brown is an idiot and i cant believe anyone voted Labour back in!?! I have to pay all my student tuition fees back that toni blair never had to do, and i very much doubt i will be able to get on the property ladder for a good few years. And its full of immigrants that are trying to change our country. Worst government.

This is the worst government we have ever had. Heather made a list of bad decisions and errors of judgement, I would like to add to that:
Labour has:
Destroyed the private pension schemes leaving many wokers at all levels paying into such schemes without a penny for their old age, in doing so have caused many of the pension providers to go into liquidation.

Taken us into the European super state by the back door without a referendum.

Sold Half of our gold Reserves when the market for gold was at rock bottom price only for the price to rise significantly a few days after the sale had taken place. What happened to the money from this sale?

The party is full of scandal and corruption I.e. take John Prescott
and his sex, fraud and beating up the public scandals and deals with American gaming barons. Blair is in a cash for peirage scandle and the MP's are fiddling the expepence sheets like there is no tommorow.

Gordon Brown is to reduce our freedom of speech even further proving that the Labour party are no better than the BNP who they have been calling fascist for years, yet, in reality it is the Labour party who are the real fascist.

The BNP have been calling for and end to mass immigration for many years and have constantly warned the government of the dangers of over exposure and the possibility of ethnic cleansing of areas of our country and ,yet, Labour have taken no notice even though the BNP have been proved right. Labour are still trying to enforce a situation where imigration can't be discussed.

Our National health service is in a shambles with more people going in to hospital than come out due to the various super bugs being caught while in hospital

Our legal system has all but broken down, Don't blame the average policeman, but the chief constable Blair. Child molesters and serial murders are getting away with minimum sentences, crimes of violence are increasing by the day. Punishment for serious violence and murder are becoming meaningless and reoffenders are at an all time high.
There are many many more reasons why New Labour should not get in again.

There are two alternatives to the mainstream parties British National party and the United Kingdom Independant party both capable of making a goverment if elected ((not necessarily in that order). Now that New Labour has shown its hand with its intention to limet free speech ( remember New Labour has set up secret police to interogate people who speak out against homosexuality and other PC sensitivites) the Bibles teachings and quotations have also been used by the police as evidence as being discriminate. All of us should have the right to say 'I disagree' 'i don't believe you'. You all may hate the Redmonk and make fun of me that is your right, I may not like it but as long as I have the same right to tell you what I think of you I have to accept that as part of being in a democratic society.

If you vote main stream you will be asking for more of the same, there needs to be radical change in our politics to try to reverse some of the damage. The problem is tribal voting i.e I voted labour/conservative all my life I'm not changing now. If you vote main stream I can only say it's been nice knowing you; with the tide of imigration at its present quota the English won't be around in the next fifty years and law and order will not exist unless the facist Labour pary have created a police state and lets face it the foundations are being set out for that now by New Labour..

Yes England is going down the toilet and we should get out of Europe.The goverment stopped listening to the people years ago it will soon be time for a revolution to save this country of ours.

We enjoy high standards of living compared to most of europe (high wages, low unemployment, etc.)
The NHS has had tens of billions pumped into it.
And we're hosting the 2012 olympics!
Personally, i don't think we've ever had it so good.It's too easy to grumble about what's wrong with the world. As with everything, you have to make the most of things!
AS for getting out of europe, no. There are too many benefits for staying in (even if it is expensive and excessively beaureaucratic!)
And as for what war did we lose, erm... we haven't lost a war in a while - not that it's in the slightest bit relevent to the state of the nation.

Still Margaret Thatcher did such a good job, befriending and harbouring murderous dictators, sitting in Reagans pocket, selling off national industries, reeking vengence on any union which dared challenge her and in turn wrecked communities, encouraged everyone to adopt the tory ideals ( I'm alright jack, stuff anyone else) and also nurtured a culture of debt because everyone wants to out do the Joneses.

Being from the USA-- I can't speak to the details of your situations within the U K with much knowledge at all---except--that one of your country's biggest problems was Blair's undying devotion to the UK / USA "Thing"---and his blind trust in someone that it turns out has a lot of private agenda included in his political wranglings--- In that one thing once again the people of the USA and you within the UK were duped and have been paying an extremely high cost for it ever since !!

But-- after all is said and done--you guys over there need to know that a lot of us over here really do love you guys-- you've always been there for us-- thick or thin so to speak-- and that's something that a lot of us over here will never be forgeting !!!!!

So many questions, so little time...
No, this is not the worst government we've had..
No, England is not down the toilet... they don't have the restrictions in their laws that we have, and will be able to root out their terrorist activities more effectively.
No, we should not "get out" of Europe.. just out of their political processes.
In modern times, Vietnam is commonly beleived to be a lost "war", but actually, it was a "conflict", and probably doesn't count.

Perhaps it is but I think the worst government we ever have will be the one that uses the argument of limiting terrorist communicaton and in so doing removes your freedom to ask that question.

Wait for the day....
