Thread: Miliband says something Capitalist

Here is something that one would not expect from the Labour Party. As part of my credit where credit is due series, I present you with something that would have probably made Adam Smith, Hayek, Milton Friedman and Ludwig von Mises smile. It’s all about banning commercial deception. Well done!


Ed Miliband goes to war on 'rip-off Britain' - Telegraph

How much money do you lose when you get the thing home and find out the metal bits are made of plastic and it breaks as soon as you use it? You find out it wasn't what you thought it was. It reminds me of a chair I sat on at someone's house a while back.

No ED, far better you carry on impersonating a 'bush baby'.

Yes of course it could all be a lie, but as I see it both parties lie. I think they just say whatever they think will get them into power and then they pay more attention to extremist pressure groups like Stonewall when they do get in. Even if the UKIP got in they would be more concerned about men sticking their willies up the bums of other men than to do anything that would actually make us richer. It doesn't matter which party you look at, except perhaps the BNP. They are all politically correct brainwashed traitors. If you look at the policies the Tories are implementing in some areas you will see they are exactly what Labour were doing. Now Cameron wants to make Britain a world leader in perverted sex and change the definition of marriage. If Labour were in power then they would be doing exactly the same.

One thing I detect though is Milliband is showing a few signs of freethinking at the moment. This is good because the higher the level of opposition to the government the better. They are also intending to vote against more money to the IMF to bail out the euro. Since there are a lot of Tory rebels it is thought that the decision won't get though Parliament. So although it is not much, it is better that we have a good Labour leader. He seems more sensible than Clegg.
