I know Labour are broke and that they have a nasty habit of recycling old policies and passing them off as new ideas, but don’t you think they’ve gone a bit too far with this latest election broadcast. I mean, whatever next? First, Ramsay McBrown addresses the nation about the grave economic crisis: And on [...]

So this evening we learn that the penny has finally dropped with George Osborne and he’s announced that he’ll be immediately scrapping Labour’s crazy plan to hammer national insurance if they win a fourth term. Whatever the economic impact of this – and it will only be good in the sense that businesses will be [...]

Thanks to Iain Dale’s heads-up, I’ve just seen what I think should and could be a politically game changing post by John Redwood on his blog. I say that because it made me realise, to my shame, that I’ve been as taken in by the Labour revisionist narrative on the economics of the Thatcher years [...]

Jeff Randall, as usual, has said precisely what needed to be said (ie: the truth) about the implications of Labour’s latest act of political violence against the country we somehow collectively permitted it to ruin once again. Now don’t get me wrong. I’m a grown-up (sort of) so I can take a bunch of socialist [...]

(Just remember, for instance, that when he growls [...]

The British electorate trusted Labour to inherit the most stable and competitive economy in Europe and to invest wisely for the future. Yet over 13 wasted years our public finances have been squandered and our economy is in a dire state. The damage they have done is so extensive it is hard to quantify. So [...]

So today we have the first counterpunches from the sputtering Brown smear machine, on the back of some dumb remarks about Labour’s debt crisis and out-of-control deficit spending by a bunch of tame Keynesians in a brace of suspiciously timed letters to the Financial Times. Well, more power to them but I prefer to listen [...]

Bishop Hill has highlighted this extraordinary, extraordinarily complacent and utterly dishonest press conference by someone who I believe is one of the most corrupt individuals on the face of the earth. I recognise that Bishop Hill’s blog is a serious, wonderful, scholarly front line against the industrial level scam that is climate change. But mine [...]
