As a non-labour voter, I actually think they made the right call on all 4 of these ^ so they've gained me as a new fan. Only utilities/railway privatisation, wealth taxes and house building left to introduce, and they'll gain my vote next election.

Well two months in and people are squirming because they now realise that this Labour Government have discovered enormous financial mess they have inherited is.

As usual (1964 and 1997) have left the country in financial turmoil.
