  • All sounds excellent.

    I'm just not convinced a real socialist Government shouldn't be helping the poor more directly.

    How about a 20k start level for income tax.

    That would have cost less than the bailing out the Banks.

    The cut in the base rate hasn't been passed on to consumers yet.

    The massive profits by the foreign energy companies hasn't been taxed.

    Re-possessions have doubled by Northern Rock.

    You've shown you can act quickly....you need to act quickly to help the poor ...NOW.

  • Blah blah blah

  • @Jonbilton Hear hear!

    The thing is, Labour is no longer "True Labour", it's "New Labour".

    If only it was the former...

  • Spot on, your right!

  • Hi Yvette! Your audio message is clear and narates what the Treasury is doing to regulate banks. Microscopic look is necessary to prevent turbulance to mortgage markets, plight of home owners, and the overall lending policy where banks are be levying high premiums and unfair penalties. This does not mean that state control is the answer...privatisation is a good thing but should be curtailed so that people are also beneficiaries.

  • I think Yvette always has a commonsense approach. She never panics. Let us move forward with confidence now. I am glad the most vulnerable will be protected as well, and stick to the dividends point.

  • Nice one. Shows the difference between the Tories, who would rather let people at the bottom hang out to dry, whilst the Labour party is for the many, not the few.

  • Interesting Yvette - it's good to know that we've got people who actually care helping us through these difficult times

  • ... hmm, informative.... no. okay well I guess it's good that I'm well versed in what's going n w/ the economy. I just wonder how the government justifies, the lack of knowledge the general public actually has on thi isue.
