Enough of the past. Cameron, Clegg and Milliband all want the middle ground because the British public have NEVER voted for an extreme party.
Except on a few minor issues, they are indistinguishable from each other. UKiP might be offering a credible further right alternative, but there isn't a further right credible alternative to the Labour Party. ( Unfortunately).

No I agree with TTT
Red Ted we used to call him. Others called him Pouf and +ueer
but you know there is no accounting for taste.
even on this thread
I luuuurved my new word innaction - the second n is for No
and that is what Red Ted said the whole time - no No NO
esp-No not that woman ! shows he was a red'un.
And..... Qizzie can't add - you wil notice that there are more years between 1955 - 1979 than there are in the sum of the all the years of the prime minister
.... and the answer is.... Harold Wilson ( best Tory leader WE've had, I can tell you ) had six and not four
1964 - 1966 - let us recall Desmond Donnelly and Woodrow Wyatt
1966-1970 - landslide - time of the lavender notes from Lady Faulkender
aaaand.. 1974 - 1976 at which time he suddenly resigned - possibly to head off scandal.
well its lucky someone on this thread can add !

Of course the last prime ministers to impose energy price controls were those hardline socialists John Major and Margaret Thatcher.
Opening up the energy market to more companies, encouraging competition and forcing prices down for the private customers and small businesses sounds like a Tory policy to me.
But if takes Ed to do it, I'm happy with that :-)
It is interesting btw that so called "geeky" Mr Miliband is calling for 3 TV debates during the election campaign while voter-friendly Mr Cameron would prefer just the one, it seems.

"Lights will go out / companies will go bankrupt ( scaremongering by the energy companies ) - What a load of bullsh1t "
Absolutely - these companies seem to have adopted the role of new Scargillite NUM :-)
Interestingly though guess what: EDF the French company, where prices are regulated, has kept deafeningly quiet so far

War time Prime ministers do not usually make good peacetime Prime Ministers, two totally different disciplines.
So the colour they are wearing, in that particular case, was rather irrelevant.
And living on one good idea of nearly 70 years ago - 'The NHS' is perhaps not really a vote winner. The majority have moved on, even if you have not.

mikey, the people who introduced the welfare state had no idea the population would grow so big nor indeed live as long, so it's become a leviathan and will eventually have to be pared back. It was a good thing but also a bad thing, it has indeed made some very dependent on welfare, and we all expect to get hospital, doctor treatments don't we ?
