What an interesting thread :-D :-D I loved Maggie's post - so real. My daddy didn't have a firm either. |

Trouble with all the leaders, Cameron, Clegg and Milliband is that they are all clones of what they believe to be the perfect politician. They want to please everybody and it cannot be done. Show them a band wagon and they fight to get on it first. |

I honestly think it is the system, and also that one of the fundamental problems with the politicians of today, is the rise of what I term the University Campus Politicians and Silver Spoon Politicians ;-) |

I thought DC had always said he intended to hold a referendum on our membership of the EU :-S |

I feel sorry for any leader who would try to get us out of this mess. |

I am convinced that David Cameron's nickname should be either "Spinning Top" or "Dizzy" because, depending which way the wind is blowing, he spins round and round one way for Nick Clegg and then he spins round and round the other way for his backbenchers ;-) |

I would also like some one of the MT type. I don't like Mr Cameron but having said that, probably no one could do any better. |

Hey Maggie, a set of Chippendale Chairs is worth much more than the combined set of MPs we have. :-D What we no doubt will have is the usual Claptrap of "I,m going to make an announcement in Parliament" thinking that will please the electorate.They never follow it through with anything realistic. :-( |

We really do need a strong leader. I don't want to resurrect the Margaret Thatcher debate, but we really would benefit from someone of her ilk right now. |

Which ever party had been asked to form a government after the last General Election was going to be handed a poisoned chalice purely because of the international financial situation. |

Definitely "Yes" all we get are "Promises Promises" and no action. :-( |

This thread is not about the pro's and con's of our membership of the European Union, it is a thread about what I see as weak leadership and chaos at the heart of government. If you want to debate our membership of the European Union - can I suggest that JohnLovesHorlicks thread - I want to be in Europe - would be a more appropriate thread ;-) |
