Seroius question. The agovernment has been in power for 4 years and I was stuggling to think what they had done.

1. Free Schools.
2. Privatisation of Royal Mail.
3. Privatisation of Air Sea Rescue.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

Regardless of whether you agree with the Coalition's policies, can you fill in the blanks. They must have done more than 3 things, but I am stuck to remember them.

4) avoided the (eagerly) anticipated double-dip
5) ditto- triple-dip
Actually, I don't think they've done a great deal, possibly as a result of being ham-strung by their pathetic coalition partners.
but on the plus side, they stemmed the damage being inflicted on the country by the self-serving, mendacious, machievellian pigs who spent 13 years beggaring the country and working-class people.

We might have avoided double and triple dip, but we had no growth for 3 years while our competitors did. Put your thinking cap on, they must have enacted more than 3 policies in 4 years.
did all the member states have growth,
this is a mixed bag, i wonder quite where we would be had Labour stayed in power

I do not really regard Greece and Portugal as our competitors. I was more thinking Germany, US, France.

You cannot think of anything that they have achieved then, emmie?
is the USA out of the doldrums, isn't it humoungously in debt,
as to Germany, that shouldn't be a surprise.
kept Labour out of the public coffers for the last four years,
trying to elicit welfare reforms, this is going to be near damn impossible, because when they do, they get criticised for being uncaring Tory bastards
forgetting that the Lib Dems are in there too.
If Labour get back in they will promise a lot, and then where possible spend money we do not have, just like the old days.
its their websites so they could be a bit biased, but its not all doom and gloom,

4. Borrowed more than Labour did in their 13 years.
not as well as they should perhaps, this isn't going to be a short sharp burst, they like us have to take it one step at a time, if investors are jittery, then the markets don't do so well, and it takes time to recover from a large scale crash.

5. Screwed the sick, the disabled, the unemployed, and students while giving the rich further tax relief.
wow, just as i thought we would get a reasoned debate.
who pays for the long term sick, unemployed, and if you look at the student fee system, its not anywhere near as bad as painted.
will Labour cut the welfare bill or increase it, will they scrap student fees completely, will they borrow more to pay for all the things they say they will do.
actually the one problem i personally have is the bedroom tax, and that can also be got round if you speak with the bods at the local council,
there's money in the pot to help those who are most at risk, you only have to ask them.
1. Revived the ailing Private Medical Insurance sector, by buggering up the NHS

2. Boosted the Private Education Sector, by buggering up State Schools

3. Created a boom in Private Mail Delivery Companies, by buggering up the Royal Mail


... do we see a pattern emerging?
Reduced HM Forces to dangerously low levels
Introduced the bedroom tax
Supposedly tackled fat cat bankers bonus culture
Reduced spending on flood defences and the Environment Agency
And instigated a badger cull. That'll show 'em!

They're doing an absolutely sterling job......
the NHS has had a good go at buggering up its own nest, it needs some decided paring, and more money is pumped into it than ever before,
who cocked up the GP hours debacle, oh yes it was Labour.
more go to A&E because they don't trust doctors, or they can't get an appointment at the GP surgery, the coalition i believe are trying to address that, but the GP's are naturally reluctant to change back to the old system
they don't work weekends, so don't get ill or need an appointment
and if you do perhaps it will be in 2, 4 weeks time.
