Gordon can't listen - the EU won't let him

Last Thursday the country gave Gordon Brown a good kicking. At the weekend the Prime Minister went on telly to admit that mistakes had been made and that he would listen and lessons would be learned.

Is he going to do a U-turn on the abolition of the 10p tax rate? No.
Is he going to forget the ridiculous ID Cards plan? No.
Is he going to cut stealth taxes? No.
Will he restore the great pension grab which wrecked Britain's pension system? No.
Would he drop his plan for 42-days' detention without trial? No.
Is he going to abandon his plans for taxing people who have too much rubbish? Yes.

Then, Downing Street announced that actually no he wasn't abandoning the rubbish plan. What they didn't tell you was the reason why - the EU. This new law is the result of an EU directive and Britain always implements EU directives - even those that harm the country.

Makes you proud to be British. Vote Labour.
