    This governments so called house building programme won't help those in housing need get what is required ......low cost rented housing

    It's going to push more people into debt

    In the post war period there was no shame in renting from the local council

    But Thatcher for political reasons , to win votes and weaken the local councils , pushed the right to buy with massive subsidies and we are left with the housing crisis we have today .....a nation obsessed with home ownership and people breaking their backs to keep up with mortgages they can't afford

    Capitalism is taking us to oblivion

    repeating a lie over an over doesn't make it a truth

    Thatcher built more social housing in her last year of office than Blair and Brown did in the entirety of their tenure.

    Is that the one about Labour overspending causing our current economic misery? The only people pedalling that load of nonsense are the Tories and their friends in the media, not independent, impartial, accredited and recognised fiscal organisations.

    what has this got to do with the OP?

    however, I will humour you. I doubt anyone has ever said labour were solely responsible. What some, me included, have said was that Labour were asleep at the tiller whilst the lightly regulated banks and consumers were going credit crazy. Labour were also responsible for the spending plans that saw the UK experience a >10% deficit in 2009. It matters not if the Tories agreed the plans in advance, it was up to Labour as the party in Power to ensure suitable plans were in place to cover any shock to the economy. They failed.

    it is old news anyway. all parties fail eventually, it is only a matter of time. Look how this shower of shite are imploding over the perennial question of Europe.
