Jump To Comment: 1There is one part of this article that I agree with (at least partially), Labour will not wait. On the contrary, they are positively gagging at the thought of getting into government with the blueshirts. FG and FF are two sides of the same coin. They want to continue bailing out financial speculators and developers and want the rest of the country to foot the bill. A good example of this is the ‘universal social charge’ which is not exactly a new concept, Thatcher first thought of it, only then it was called the poll tax. And the ‘left wing’ Labour Party wants to be part of a government that implements such policies.
