"The people chose new leaders... The result was the great change... "

"They stopped government doing things... budgets were cut by up to 60%, public sector employment declined by a quarter and lo within three years the budget was back in surplus and stayed there, the currency soared and the economy boomed"
An interesting little piece I found on the BBC website.

Here is a debate on the film with Andrew Neil, Diane Abbott and Michael Portillo. Top line from David Starkey
"We have had a low dishonest 15 years... the New Labour government... was never a government it was a machinery for winning elections and it won them by lying"

Michael Portillo actually explains that the national income cake is not of a fixed size as most politicians and the BBC like to pretend - "there is no understanding of economic dynamism" and pushes 'supply side economics' a long forgotten idea.

David Starkey's prediction of public sector strikes is an accurate one and one that should be giving David Cameron nightmares.

Very good. Thanks for the links or I would never have got so see some sense being spoken!

Let's hope DC gets his working majority and has the balls (no not wanker Ed) to do the job!
