The Tories are steaming agead in the polls.

Labour has no coherency. It's finished for years without a new leader and a big dose of common sense.

Isn't it brilliant. They brought this country to its knees, they should face the consequences for years to come.

How far ahead is Cameron in the polls, I've said it before, I'll say it again.

.....If leading the country into another recession is your idea of winning, then I await your idea of losing with some interest.

At least Labour had a ready made excuse for the last recession with the banking collapse, the present lot have just led us there through gross incompetence....

The present lot have had to play the poor hand they were given. Heaven knows how worse it would have been with the jokers in office still.

And they have played it appallingly......The other jokers couldn't have done any worse. I mean what could be worse than a double-dip recession?...

Give 'em chance, they've got three and a bit years left yet to make a complete bollox of it. They're probably just pacing themselves

This crisis potentially has a long way to go. Eveythinh that has happened since 2008 was predictible and as I said then will only resolve itself by significant loss of living standards. Sadly, we are only at the start of the austerity - it'll get alot worse. We'll see scenes that those of us born after WW2 will never have witnessed. People need to accept that, get their heads down and work their socks off.

Oh god, not this drivel again.

Banks – remember? Global financial crisis – remember?

All the fault of Gordy and Tone, was it? Or just a total coincidence that it happened at the same time?

I wouldn't say they "brought" it to it's knees. What they did is proved that they have no idea when it comes to managing the economy though.

No money put aside for a "rainy day". Instead they, like the rest of the country, overborrowed.

Time after time, Labour overspend, screw up the economy and the Tories come in and fix it for the country.

Happened in the 1970's, is happening again.
