John Prescott on class war attacks against Tories (04Dec09)

John Prescott thinks that attacking the Conservatives using the left's favourite 'class' argument will win votes. New Labour are keeping quiet how many of THEM have been educated in the private sector, in what they claim is privileged background for Conservative MPs, strangely not for Labour MPs that were educated the same way.

New Labour given all opposition parties a large open goal to shoot at with New Labours stupid 'class' tactic.

@themothmanreturns

You've got nothing to worry about then have you if the tripe you've come out with is true..I mean Labour should walk this election.

Socialism? Geez..my little toe is more socialist than Brown..he'd foam at the mouth if you said the word. Listen, Socialism is dead..time of death the 80s..were you asleep? The Tories won every single political debate. What does Thatcher say was one of her biggest achievements? New Labour...Tory policies led by a Tory in Blair

[themothmanreturns]

@steps1 If you are not wealthy then you have been misled somewhere down the line. You should research the difference between a right wing party and a socialist party.

[themothmanreturns]

@steps1 This is because more money has been put into the public sector than ever before and therefore the level of education for the poor has increased substantially, giving people the chance to become successful, even in business, which Thatcher was adament was impossible. She said only the rich could create jobs for the poor. How wrong she was.

[themothmanreturns]

@steps1 The gap between the rich and the poor isn't widening at all, there are more middle class families than ever before. If you listen to the comments Margeret Thatcher made (they are mostly here on youtube), you will see that she advocated an increased gap between the two and she claimed this was the only way the poor would get richer; this simply is not true; more people from a working class background are setting up successful businesses than ever before.

[themothmanreturns]

@steps1 With regards to the comment Brown made on middle classes, of course this is the right thing to do, this has been the aim of the labour government from the start; to bring the working class into the middle class, which is what has effectively happened and will continue to do so under labour. With an increase in money to those in the working class, they will become richer and form a much larger middle class. With this will come a much stronger economy.

[themothmanreturns]

@steps1 Every busiessman will have formed a 4 year business plan and should accept that there is no quick fix if we are to return the economy to a state of prosperity. The Tories (and Tory businesses), however, do not see it this way, aiming to make all the cuts in the puplic sector with tax holidays for the high earners. Without an increase in NICs, there will have to be huge cuts in the public sector which will without a doubt hurt the poorest the most.

@themothmanreturns

Are you blind and deaf to the fact that the gap between the rich and the poor has got WIDER under Labour? 13 years of Labour..I mean that is a disgrace which is apparently the party of the people.

What did you think of Brown savaging millions of the poorest people by getting rid of the 10p tax band?

Labour have bankrupt the country..they have run out of OTHER PEOPLE'S money..that's what they do best. We saw it in '51, '79 and history is repeating itself.
