I do wish the Labour party would start fighting their battles on the basis of their policies, and stop this puerile "aren't the Tories nasty" stuff. It's tedious in the extreme, and no basis for a government. "We're best because we're not the Tories!" Idiots.

[FourWheelDrift]

I always find it odd (for odd read biased) that any story associated with the Labour Party on the BBC never has a "post your comments" link to it.

[turbobloke]

So, the obituary appears before the mauling?

[grumbledoak]

Empty rhetoric. Darling must be wishing there was anything Labour could be proud of.

[B Oeuf]

Proud? proud of what? putting us in the worst position of any European Country to recover from a global recession? depleting our gold reserves in a way that would make a Ratners Director look smart? robbing people of their pensions? being at the helm of the most public expenses scandal ever seen? having a leader so stupid that even his Chancellor admits he's a fking basket case? a leader who constantly has to assure us he "is the right man for the job?" The largest most disasterous and most unpopular Government the UK has ever had and you are PROUD?!!!

The chancellor told Labour conference delegates Gordon Brown's leadership had prevented a global recession from turning into a depression.

Global? When are they going to stop trying to claim they are the worlds financial saviour. All they have done is put the UK into a massive debt.

Tony Blair spent 9 years of PM's questions using the stock 'It was worse when the Tories where in power' answer to any awkward question - why change the habit....

I wish people would stop referring to it as a 'massive' debt.

Massive is not a big enough word to describe this cluster-fk

Labour are getting the country into debt at a rate, now, of £6,000 per second. How long was slug-face's speech?

Massive in the same way space is massive.

Darling said:

He added: "Within months, the country faces a big choice. A choice not just about who's in government but about values that will shape our country and the opportunities for our people. A choice that will affect every area of our lives, every aspect of our future."

Nobody noticed this?

I reckon they'll roll for a December General Election - anything afterwards in the January post Christmas back to work gloom will be even worse for them.

Well lets be honest british politics does consist of vote for us we aren't the other lot.

No one actually wants the torys to be in power, they just want the labour party even less

They are all self serving st it is just how st they are

[Oakey]

I'm somewhat amazed that Browns recent announcement to commit us to years of spending cuts and tax rises has gone completely under the radar on here. After weeks of PMQ's before the Summer where Brown kept banging on about how the Tories would be implementing cuts whilst Labour wouldn't, I'd have thought this would be big news.

Actually, in it's own special way, that's quite a list of acheivments

[ShadownINja]

I should stand outside the conference doing my best to look foreign with a placard reading, "Labour is great! Thanks for free house and money! My brother and his wife come next month!"

Darling reckons they've saved the world & they'll take steps to prevent ("never again" were the words used) the worlds financial markets being taken to the brink of disaster.

On the other hand, the revolting reptilian gravy-train will go on as usual.

Labour could stop all the opposition dead & piss the next election by standing up & publicly committing to halt the spongers & self-serving activities of government both central & local & to put their house in order.

But they won't, because they'd all have to sack themselves & some would end up guarding the soap in the showers.

I feel sorry for Brighton, it must stink of ste now.

So slugbrows says never again...echoes of 'no more boom and bust'.

As I've said on here a lot, selective memory is the hallmark of every ardent Socialist.
