I think you're being terribly naive. By and large, the Government is doing what they said they would during the election, cutting the deficit and
sorting out the economy. If Labour had won in 2010, they would have continued the same spending policy which basically would have just meant sticking
their fingers in their ears and gone "lalalala", hoping the problem would go away. It wasn't until much later in 2010, well after the election,
that Ed Balls conceded that Labour had got it wrong.
Also, note the rash of doom and gloom headlines in the media, but very little about positives, such as Land Rover expanding, Nissan expanding, Redcar
re-opening, JCB recruiting and making record sales etc. Again, the Government said they wanted us to get back into manufacturing and this is
happening.
I would like you to tell me how you believe we could all "get a job" when the global economy is still sick. Besides, 100% employment is undesirable
as that will drive up wages so high we price ourselves out the market. Like it or not, there needs to be
some unemployment.

Its too easy to sit on ass claim what you can and get by with little to no effort or contribution to the country.
Maybe so, but I don't think for one minute anyone in this thread has advocated such a thing.

Speak for yourself matey, but I know plenty of "proud Britons", myself included. Not quite sure what you're trying to say here though.
