Was this government the worst in UK history?

History will not be kind to Blair and the New Labour regime, & Brown is just the dying embers of a busted Government.
I suspect the people will just carry on regardless as long as there's footy on the telly and a new page 3 girl everyday rather than hold the perpetrators who have bought his country to its knees accountableHow fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think -
So why did you lot let them remain in power for so long?
I told everyone that they were a load of frackers in '97 and it would all end in tears, but you wouldn't listen. So I fracked off out of it in 2001 and only come back to take advantage of 'free' health care (I've paid enough in the past, now I'm collecting).
You've only got yourselves to blame. You've had plenty of chances to get rid of them.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

but you do make a very good point. I am fed up of people on the radio saying "Is this going to be like 79 or 92?" because even our professional pundits are too small minded to consider whether it might be more like 1857 or 1931.Comment
