Alistair Darling losing economic argument (09Apr10)

New Labour's failure chancellor Alistair Darling is putting up a losing fight on New Labour's economic argument, and not just on the £6bn of cuts to the public sector, but now on refusing to publish the treasury's own details on what effect New Labour's National Insurance income tax rise would do to jobs. New Labour said they would publish this advice... AFTER the general election... so there is a great deal to hide from the public by New Labour.

Recorded from BBC 1pm News, 09 April 2010.

Be fair George it wasn't Alistair who made the mess it was Gordon, Ed, Ed, Yvette, Liam & Stephen.

Alistair Darling committed financial genocide on British Citizens on the 8th of October 2008. And it was all based on lie. Sarah McCarthy-Fry and Ian Pearson then misled Parliament when they effectively accused those people Darling slapped of being Tax Evaders for banking offshore. Most of these people had banked offshore as they had been forced to be Labour Government 'know your customer' banking rules - No UK address, no bank account. Alistair Darling was, is and will be, a dreadful man.

Another biased opening question from the BBC.

NOT filling vacant jobs in the NHS has been the norm for the last 8 months or more . . . and STILL we are going to have to loose a percentage of frontline nurses, therapists and ward admin - beginning this month.

desk jobs in the NHS? - where I work we have 60 finance staff, no idea why we need so many!!

And this is BEFORE the election, this is labour's diktat!
