Refreshing change I think. Over time it will illustrate just how out of touch and wrong headed Cameron/Tory policies are.
Cameron kept coming back to the need for a strong economy which of course doesn't answer or deal with the micro issues people are facing in their real lives. On the macro level one of the strongest economies in Europe and our best comparitor is Germany. So the follow up questions or responses to Cameron should really be why don't we take a leaf out of the German book if we want to make our economy stronger. It is poignant that whilst we celebrated the 'Battle of Britain 'few' yesterday in the long term Britain may have won the war but it lost the peace as Germany is a far stronger economy now. They don't seem to feel the need to go around bombing other countries and they start from a more co-operative basis to their version of capitalism than the UK exhibits.
Ultimately the key assets of the economy are the people so surely the Managers of the economy should treat those assets like assets and wish to invest in them rather than treat them like commodities/slave labour ?
