# I don't see him being ousted as Labour leader before an election
and even in the unlikeliest turn of events and when an election comes to pass Labour don't win he'll still be employed as leader of the opposition ( until replaced ). That could take all of 2 years yet so 'soon' is a bit optimistic.

Or am I to understand that David Cameron is unemployed?

I'm not defending the Conservative party, all I'm saying is that at the moment they seem like the lesser of the two evils.

# you don't know much about politics do you?
The labour party brought this country to its most prosperous years of all time.

Independent financial greed in the sub-prime markets and immense amounts of profiteering by hedge-fund managers are to blame for any financial woes you ( I say you, I mean your parents ) might have today.

Not a government in Europe has been able to avoid that. It's how they react and where we are in 3 year's time that will count when it comes time to judge a government. But that won't worry you, you'll be more entrenched in Big Brother than politics would be my hunch.

He'll spend the rest of his natural life giving speeches on sustainable
economics to people with no grasp of irony, and be paid handsomely for it.

But people will only remember him for being PM during the biggest

# But as I said.
We are on the shitty end of the results of the US financial markets ( and the fact that we, as well as most of Europe, are tied into the same monetarism policy ) and it just galls me that people are blindly willing to blame 'the government' when they are just victims of someone else's greed.

By all means have an opinion, but I wish people would base those opinions on actual fact rather than using the current situation to voice their displeasure in a government that would have had the exact same issues thrust upon them regardless of their political affiliation.

# I wasn't blaming him.
Just highlighting his shitty luck. I have a lot of respect for him ultimately,
for being the standard-bearer for tackling the third-world debt.

# no I know that you were not blaming him
and I did not mean for you to infer that I meant you, personally, were. It just seemed to be a good place to say these things under your comments but was meant more as a reaction to things said above.
