You say all that like they were bad things. I thought this thread was about the Hillsborough disaster. Shall we get back on track and discuss the merits of Baroness Thatcher elsewhere?

I suggest the back of a postage stamp. There should be room to spare.

Instead you have the mega rich in charge. Still lining their own pockets at everyone's expense.
The very same bunch of greedy scum who caused this bloody recession.
It's like handing the keys of the nursery to the kiddie fiddlers.

What a [edited by admin] knob.

the mega-rich have ALWAYS been in charge (regardless of whose in power), and LABOUR were in power when this recession started, Wilson devalued the £, that wasnt a recession was it?...


Quote:
1967: Wilson defends 'pound in your pocket'
The Prime Minister, Harold Wilson, has defended his decision to devalue the pound saying it will tackle the "root cause" of Britain's economic problems.

The government announced last night it was lowering the exchange rate so the pound is now worth $2.40, down from $2.80, a cut of just over 14%.

The decision came after weeks of increasingly feverish speculation and a day in which the Bank of England spent £200m trying to shore up the pound from its gold and dollar reserves.

In a radio and television broadcast this evening, the Prime Minister said devaluation would enable Britain to " break out from the straitjacket" of boom and bust economics.

We are all potentially Mega Rich.

When the Labour Party came into power, with the exception of Tony Benn, who was rich already, the scramble for cash was a sight for sore eyes. Tony Blair was one of the most grasping, but Arthur Scargill ran him a close second. In Russia, few of their Leaders lived in poverty after they got into power.

I suppose the only example of retaining ones roots was Pol Pot.

By the way, while your at it, have a look at the lifestyle of Kim Jong il and compare it with that of his people.

Go on Trot, argue with that.

It's the only way you English would elect a labour government.

I couldn't give a schecht what Wilson did when I was less than a year old.

Maybe you can tell us why you support a party that is dismantling the NHS and selling it off in pieces to themselves and the same money grabbing mates who landed your country in the shyte?

Or voted the richest people in the country (including themselves) a whopping big tax cut, while mugging our wallets every time we fuel up?

Yeah, we're all in it together. Some more than others.....

It was a harsh time for the working class and the poor in England, reflecting the very uneven distribution of power and wealth; they were generally held in contempt by an arrogant, indolent, ruling elite—the propertied class—who saw the working class as idle and depraved.

Consequently, working people were denied basic political rights and their agitation for such rights was suppressed violently in the panic generated by widespread unrest and by the French Revolution.

Pitt the Younger, the admirer of Smith, was responsible for a series of repressive actions and legislation between 1793 and 1801. For example, the 1793 Aliens Act prevented any French Republican from coming to England. The leaders of the London Correspondence Society were arrested in 1794, questioned by the Privy Council—including Prime Minister Pitt—and charged with high treason, the penalty for which was hanging, drawing and quartering.

The society itself was outlawed.

In 1794, the suspension of habeas corpus also allowed the arrest and imprisonment of people ‘on suspicion’, without requiring charges or a trial. Local Justices of the Peace (JPs), who came from the propertied class, were ordered to investigate and prosecute leaders of the Correspondence Societies.

Many were imprisoned as a result. Tom Paine’s Rights of Man of 1791–92, which attacked the monarchy, class privilege and the barbarity of the penal code, and which advocated income tax, family allowances, public education, old-age pensions and maternity benefits, was banned as seditious libel and he was driven into exile. Similarly, the 1795 Treasonable Practices Act made a vicious attack on personal liberties, extending the definition of ‘treason’ to include speaking and writing, and attacking public meetings, clubs and the publication of pamphlets. In 1795, the Seditious Meetings Act required public meetings of more than 50 people to be authorised by a magistrate, while JPs were given discretionary power to disperse any public meeting. In 1797, taxes on printed matter were increased vastly to price cheap periodicals out of the market. In 1799 and 1800, the Combination Acts forbade societies or amalgamations of people for the purpose of bringing about political reform, while interference with commerce and trade became illegal. This legislation was not repealed until 1824.


some of the above sounds quite familiar doesnt it?
