Tony Bliar and his side kicks inherited possibly the best economic situation this country has experienced from the previous tory government, what did they do with it ?, pissed it away.
The only reasons I could see anyone voting labour were either, your on benefits and it suits you, you're an illegal immigrant or you work in the public sector.
Labour were no friend to the genuine working man in the private sector, christ even their last ditch attempt at saving the country was to raise income tax and hit workers again whilst the workshy skip merrily by.
