I know you know this, what I find myself wondering is how many of the uneducated masses know this.

Having said that, I still think Labour are going to get swamped in this GE.

Out of interest, what is the top rate of tax in Sweden land and when do you start paying it?
Oh they will be swamped.... BUT, this general idea that Labour **** up the economy was rubbished when the longest run of growth we have ever had was under Blair/Brown. Putting the BOE in charge of setting interest rates was a major cause of this. I seem to remember the Tory cut rates just before the 1997 election purely as a vote winner even though it would have had a detremental effect on the economy
