I wish this man would get laryngitis or simply shut up. Lots of promises, a shit load of legislation, months and months of wasted time, buckets of wasted taxpayers money but little if anything in the way of changed services.
When will Gordon learn that you cannot legislate real change? We need fewer rules and regulations, less waste and more power to the people. The place to start to drive up standards is for you and you incompetent government to resign.

Business leaders claimed last night that Britain was being "strangled" by unnecessary bureaucracy, while opposition politicians accused Mr Brown of "confusing legislation with governing".
TheTelegraph.
Speaking of legislation, our Mr Brown has just set a record - 2823 new laws in his first year in office. How many of these are useful to the public and how many give government greater power over us?
According to The Telegraph, this follows another record set by Brown and Blair in 2007 for the most laws introduced in a calendar year - 3071.
The shadow minister for the Cabinet Office, Francis Maude, has suggested that Brown is passing new laws simply to be seen as doing something.
Sounds about right to me.
