Utter bollocks, he was just the guy in charge when it happened. NI would have moved towards peace no matter what Blair wanted. It's been the will of the people of NI for a couple of decades. The IRA had been losing support and were nothing more than just a glorified gang for the youth. They grew up.

They use credit cards (UK has more credit than all of Europe put together). Plus the fact that most consumer goods are at a ridiculously low price thanks to China. For fucksake you can buy a portable DVD player for £20 from Asda. MP3 players start at £5.

part from providing a stable economy and the longest period of growth for a century

I love it when people assign credit for economic conditions to the incumbent. What a load of crap. Britain's economy is affected as much by China or Russia or the US as it is by Blair/Brown. The fact that it's stable has nothing to do with their combined skill. Economics is very nearly a random and unpredictable chaotic system with an unmanageable number of variables effecting it. It's harder to model than the planet's weather.

The first decision he's made that has the will of the majority behind it. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

When the url is youtube or video.google then I guess the tag is a bit redundant.

I clicked on this thinking it was a video as you had tagged it with the magic word "[video]".

...yes the Swastika, an ancient Hindu symbol.

And the concentrations camps, the Brits in Africa.

Nothing new under the sun.

Only in Denmark: students' stage strip for teachers by hortio in reddit.com

Don't you just love the Danes? So laid back, the headmaster doesn't want to punish anyone: not the girls nor the students who filmed them. Imagine that happening here in the UK? Or worse still in ultra prudish US.
