HAVE YOUR SAY

ARE YOU WORSE OFF UNDER GORDON BROWN?

Has Brown created an unfair Britain?

LABOUR is today accused of betraying millions of hard-working Britons.

A damning report says the Government has created an unfair country where families, children, pensioners and future generations are all worse off.

The Tory report makes clear just how badly Labour has let Britain down and why voters are turning against the party in ever-increasing numbers.

It highlights a number of key areas where the nation has turned into Gordon Brown’s Unfair Britain, including:
THE two million pensioners who have lost almost £100 this year because the rise in Pension Credit is being wiped out by soaring inflation.

Hundreds of thousands of people missing out on dental care, with nearly a million losing their access to NHS dentistry over the past two years while Health Service charges have risen.

Drivers being clobbered by plans to raise vehicle excise duty for the most polluting cars bought as long ago as 2001, while overall taxes on motorists will increase by £1.6billion in the next three years.

Up to 100,000 parents unable to get their child into their choice of school last year.

Nearly one million more people living in severe poverty now than when Labour came to power, with life expectancy for the poorest at its lowest since Victorian times.

* Are YOU WORSE OFF under Gordon Brown?

HAS BROWN CREATED AN UNFAIR COUNTRY...???

Too right he has.....the * Europeans' he has allowed into Britain by the coach loads have priority over the Brits...they come to Britain and get everything served to them on a plate, social security benefits, housing, education. I fear for my childrens kids, as they dont have the say anymore where their kids go to school, even catholic schools have muslims in them. This cant be right if we went to muslim countries would they allow catholics and jews into theirs?.not...
Immigeants of years past basicallt had a right to be hear and I am referring to Indians and West Indians...they were part of the 'Great british Empire' and to give them their dues THEY worked....and lets be honest Britain had to reap what it sowed. As to these 'Europeans'why are they allowed to come here in their thousands? why not go to other countries? Because it is the fault of this stupid government the governments of other countries are cautiously monitoring how many come in, and when they do they dont get nothing for free they HAVE to work.If we went to their countries there is nothing..!! My kids say ' you know what mum unless your a foreigner, gay or disabled you dont get nothing in this country' Now if that is the attitude of the young in the UK and through no fault of their own, no wonder theres all this trouble with the youngsters..so I would say brown has created an unfair Britain and should take responsibility for their own actions.

Reason's why we are worse off under this man's leadership is he'll never was a leader in the first place;work &job's for british people he announced; Some european countries are asking for their bricklayers back why because Gordon Brown signed our country away to Brussels&Burocrates to the Human rights act that states that it's Tom,****&harry's humanright to come into britain to work ;Hence that's what has happened; Polish, french, slovics,iranians ,iraqi's indians, just to name but afew, all desended on britain, overloading the health services, education, creating havoc & who cut back on these services Hier gordon brown our so called leader, he also cut the police services so they are over stretched;messed up the pension system, dental nhs system;plus ignored the Irish vote on the treaty who said NO & proceeded to sign Britain away to a foreign power,so now we are all taking orders from unelected burocrates in Brussels, "HE HAS SIGNED HIS JOB AWAY" So are we worse off under Brown; The answer to that is a 100% YES & Gordon Brown should be impeached or something & never be allowed to practice politics ever again....
