Stuck in a groove

Brian Smith’s comments (Fantasy; SN, 06/08/14) really are comparable to a record that is stuck in a groove.

As with the UK Labour party, which failed miserably with the economy for 13 years and would happily do it again, Brian clearly has nothing positive whatsoever to say about how well the economy is recovering so continues to regurgitate the same old rubbish. Are you actually related to Ed Balls?

Basically, Brian, you can continue to talk down the economy if you like but most people can see that your politics are from the dark ages.

If Labour was so great with the economy, why are they not the current ruling party in Westminster?
