[Independista]

Excellent video. Put it up on Labour Hame!

[TAofMoridura]

Great video, commentary and music! (Correct the deciept/deceipt typo in title ...)

[XariusAirsoft]

whats the song at the end?

[jack834834]

@XariusAirsoft it's 'workers song' by ed pickford, performed by dick gaughan (taken from the album 'handful of earth')

[XariusAirsoft]

@jack834834 thanks. One to add to the red collection :)

[partickrock]

what utter drivel

[jack834834]

@partickrock i'm curious... is it that you're a blairite, a thatcherite, a capitalist? do you disagree with the arguments put forwards? or did you simply not enjoy the style of the film?

[davidadamson9640]

Brilliant Video! I loved the one on Scottish Independence too.

[BobMonkfish]

Has Dick Gaughan ever considered using Vicks?

god what a joke labour were and the lib dems and the tories

[CalumGilhooly]

My mum still blames Atlee's government for the UK still having rationing years after the end of the war. They weren't all that great really.

[jack834834]

@CalumGilhooly I'd say the NHS makes up for prolonged rationing following one of the deadliest conflicts in history.

[CalumGilhooly]

@jack834834 it still smacks of ineptitude if it was unnecessary. There also seems to be a lot of dipute over who really instigated the NHS, the Liberals AND the Tories state claims that they had a strong hand in its formation. Just saying, it may not be cut and dried. In any case that socialist Labour Party are dead and gone, the assassin was Phony B.Liar.

[jack834834]

@CalumGilhooly on that my friend, we can certainly agree

[jimbob1969]

@CalumGilhooly Didn't we owe a shit load of money to the USA which they insisted we paid and we only finished paying off about 4 years ago?

[CalumGilhooly]

@jimbob1969, something like that. As usual the governments screw up, we pay with blood, sweat and tears and then they add extra tax and screw us some more. We just bailed out the banks and they insist we still owe a trillion pounds of debt. Money is a false construct, tehy make it out of thin air, therefore the debt is also a construct and can be written off with a stroke of the keyboard. We are being fleeced and tey are laughing at us.
