In the last ten years what improvements have they made? Following all of their promises, what have they done for us?

I dont think they understand what promise means. Or maybe they think its fun to annoy everyone by never keeping them. Lets see how theyve screwed us over.
ASBO's = stupid ineffective idea that gives chavs even more of a buzz to do something again (written by a kid in our village magazine)
overcrowded prisons = no common sense to send people back to their own country if not from here
no border control or immigration policy = loads of people here who dont know how to drive on the proper side of the road
constant tax increases = no evidence of where the money has been spent for our benefit
increased train fares = yet we still have major crashes and one of the worst transport networks in Europe and definitely the most expensive
its easier to get a home if you're a single pregnant mum or a foreigner than if you're a hardworking british citizen
theyre trying to solve debt by building supercasinos, which will only increase the problem
I dont think they have a clue what they are doing, or any guts to say no to anyone.
oh yeah, and our law defends the burglar and not the homeowner
wake up Tony!!!

Introduced Tuition Fees for students
Involved us in an illegal war
Introduced many new taxes - Airport Passenger duty, Insurance Premium Tax, Landfill tax with all extra revenues not allocated to the problems.
Wasted countless billions on bungled IT projects in Immigtation Health Service CSA, Air Traffic Control.
Reduced personal freedoms in Law - Detention extended without charges.
Health Service - You now have the same chance of dying from superbugs as being killed in a road accident.
Created Parliaments or seats of Government for NI Scotland and Wales but not ENGLAND!!!!!
All in all a complete balls up by President Blair and cronies.
PS Don't forget the Dome and introduction of much needed gambling casino's.

Tell us about it ! . Labour whinged about Privatisation..(turns out Labour members have loads of shares !! ) so they came up with PFI . Labour decided to throw Mon£y at the NHS not for more Doctors & Nurses but for more Management number crunchers....who like 2 hour lunches and Expenses forms... Labour winged about Hamilton taking bungs so Fayed could ask questions to get a Passport... - So Mandelson got his Brazilian boyfried a Visa & an illegal mortgage..from the Paymaster General...... Bonkety Blunkett - he got a Visa too for his lovers Nanny.. Labour decided that we didnt need more Police on the streets.. what we did need was more Traffic Wardens..& Speed Cameras.. .. I would like to apologise to Maggie T...for complaining about the Poll Tax.... Labour are virtually Taxing us to Death... When you take everything into consideration...we can have no qualms about saying Labour have been a disaster for Britain.. What other Oil Producing Nation ...charges their Citizens £1 for a litre of Petrol... I could go on & on about Labours Stealth Taxes.. And how many Scandals does it take for us to say - hold a minute ...this mob are at it... and as for Tony hismself ...well ..what can I say ...he is a wannabee Popstar..

They haven't really done anything to benefit the country. This country isn't getting any better and can only get worse if Labour retain power the next general election.

Have not noticed the I.R.A and the rest of the Northern Ireland thugs blowing the daylights out of us recently.Tax credits are pretty handy and my £200 fuel allowance came in useful.I'll not go into interest rates increased benefits and funding,employment figures.Things can always be better but believe you me They have been one heck of a lot worse.

Min Wage, end to fox hunting, gay rights.
problem is they should have been like old labour which did things like create the NHS... they are to far to the right and carried out many of the conservative tory policies like getting rid of student grants etc.
Actually peace with the IRA is good
Its like tory dressed up as labour

I feel the same about our Liberal government (John Howard) promises,promises and then lies and more lies but they took us to war though and we are supposed to think they made the world a safer place .Goodbye Johnny and good riddance.
