Labour pledges

On the 11 February 2005 in south London, the then Chancellor of the Exchequer Gordon Brown launched a key economic pledge for a third term in office. Crash Gordon said: "I believe that a Labour Government is the only government that can be trusted with the British economy."

Tony Blair who was with him said: "We'll make sure that the British people get the economy that we need and also that we equip them for that economy in the 21st century."

So there you go.... you are probably struggling to pay your bills but you now have a Labour 21st century economy.
