I see Osborne is pre-empting a probable new economic crash in the U.K by blaming everyone but himself, for instancve the China stock markets. This is fair enough, but if I remember rightly he blamed the last economic crash on Labour!

So how is it his fault this time? Or last time for a bonus point.

Discussion about the competence of the government has become inconsequential. I hope that voters choose UKIP in large numbers at the next election and knock Corbyn's loons into third place obscurity.

I said it was fair enough that he said the blame for the downturn is due to worldwide markets, which in all likelyhood it is, as was the last crash. Will he say he should have done more to stop it happening as he accused labour of not doing?

Labour weren't responsible for the crash but they do have to take some responsibility for designing a weak national economy: it was all spend, spend, spend. During the boom years of the nineties they significantly increased public spending and public sector workforce......What was it...'No boom and bust'. Nonsense words and nonsense policies that lived in a dream world where globalisation is a good thing and will never damage this country or cause problems. Years of bending over to the EU and opening the borders, flooding this country with economic workers....massively worsening the housing crises and lowering working class wages for many jobs. The Tories aren't great but Labour, with their idealists, are always a disaster. Edited by Stirlingsays (08 Jan 2016 12.53am)

Great thread and long overdue! Its important we root out all those individuals who display double standards. Like those who raise awareness against the patriarchy's constant demeaning of women in our society yet try to negate or deny the events in Cologne because it might portray immigration or multiculturalism in a bad light. Oh wait... what? Wrong thread? Sorry!!!!! Sorry, forget that, lets solely focus on the double standards of the right. Ah, perfect, carry on! Grrr!!! George Osbourne!

So the choice is to be between the right wing or even more right wing nutters in power. Have you recently applied for American citizenship or contributed to a Donald Trump PAC?

They also asked the banking regulators to look the other way (effectively)

Politics has been reduced to a red faced loony on the right, yelling Immigrant! Immigrant! and muttering, cuts to welfare state and NHS, and a red faced loony on the left shouting Inequality! Inequality! and muttering under his breath, IS aren't too bad, probably reasonable chaps if we sat and talked about it. Oh, an embarrassed looking Lib Dem in the middle begging someone to tell him what he should be yelling! Insanity on both sides.
