Bad leadership lost the election. They did fine up until then. Brown was a good chancellor in a lot of ways but definitely a bad leader.


Which isn't addressing the above point.

Perhaps not, but it gave his knee-joint a nice stretch.

Next he'll pull a Hillary and scream, "What difference does it make?"

Yeah it does actually. At the end, Brown's bad leadership had Labour in disarray. That's not the same as economic incompetence.

I notice you've stopped trying to accuse Labour of excessive borrowing during their period in power.

Terrible thing, facts. I've seen many a promising young man struck down in his prime right here on OTW. If only they'd checked the facts...
