Aye, she took us from in debt to being in the black after the Labour government screwed it up as usual. Admittedly she did screw a lot of us (minors) in the process... But tbh that was more the trade unions fault for trying it on, they were never going to be allowed to win. Bah!

What was it Douglas Adams wrote? Those who seek power should at all costs be prevented from achieving it (HHGTTG)...

Maybe government should be something like jury service...

I don't trust any politician... i'd only vote conservative because the lib dems aren't going to win anyway, and i want labour out.
Heck i'm only 21 i don't know much about much, but this stinks!
