New Labour's victims are Middle Britons who obey the law, work long hours and are taxed almost to extinction. This is plain wrong

Even befpore reading the article I could have told you this.

The problem is the Public Sector......it's far too big and inefficient!!!

Labour got in on promises of benefits etc, and we lapped it up, failing to realise who would be paying for all the benefits. We are now sufering for this oversight.

P.S.: the picture in that article makes me so angry!!!! Just look at his face!!! God, I want to punch it!

It's what the 'left' always does. They get elected on promises of free money for the bone idle, then wreck the economy while lining their own pockets.

Every other generation falls for it.

add to that, they have stolen from us in the form of erosion of our savings value...

your best options under labour are inherit a load of cash and use it to make more cash from the many tax payer funded bubbles and then get out of the country or receive benefits or work for the public sector or win the lottery or work for the bbc labour...very little actual labour is required...

sheeple are now focussed on the small picture as usual, so with any luck nulabour will be back in to mismanage everything again...

That doesn't automatically make it wrong though does it?

In any case, it's a columnist, Peter Oborne's article, not Daily Mail editorial.

There are very few things I'm prejudiced about, but the Daily Mail is one of them.
