observer Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Am I right in thinking, that the (Tory) Gov position two years ago was to eliminate "the deficit" by ceasing borrowing and cutting public spending? That any thought of borrowing in order to provide an economic stimulous package would increase debt, and was therefore out of the question? Well it seems Dave and George have been to Damascus (not literally of course, they might have been shot!); seen the light in response to pressure from their own MPs, and are now considering major infrastructure and house building progs. Which begs the question, do they know how to swim, or are they just getting carried down stream by the political current? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Our politicians, of all persuasions, are clueless when it comes to how to run a modern economy. On the plus ( :unsure: ) side they are experts at feathering their own nests. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Don't these threads get repetitive? Â It would be easier to give a link to comments made earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Obs is very limited on what he posts, hang on long enough and this thread will end up talking about immigration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazj Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 Obs is very limited on what he posts, hang on long enough and this thread will end up talking about immigration  pots and kettles methinks...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 Dried up ???, Â I see it as a public duty to correct your Exaggerated and blinkered posts on immigration, The topic that has been covered many times but you insist on bringing back, one might think you had an agenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 Excuse me for butting in on this Lt Kije, but certainly on this occasion YOU are the one who brought the subject of immigration into a thread which has nothing to do with it. <_< <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 It was a spoiler Asp, beat Obs to it, Â Is this you trying to get your sense of humour back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 In other words you were trying to get Obs to come back with some comment about immigration so you could beat him over the head with it and think yourself clever? Very humerous I don't think :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 No I wasn't trying to get him to reply, I don't think your clever enough at reading minds, I would just stick with being pedantic, and scrape though with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stallard12 Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 Don't post anymore - most will say 'thank god',but had to drop this in. Although we are polar opposites politically, I respect and agree with a lot of your comments. I think that you are a class act Obs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
