Today's the day that we found out how "stable" the economy is. A 0.5 per cent contraction in Q3. So much for stability. What a muppet that Brown is.

Gordon seems to be a good job of alienating not just 1,ooo,ooo but the entire country, including the cabinet. Even the Guardian is saying it's over. Do the Conservative's really have any decent policies? Join www.theblueroomforum.com, a monthly political discussion group.

The UK's Tax Freedom Day will fall on June 2 in 2008. That means that average Brits are spending more than five months of the year working for the Chancellor, rather than working for themselves. Government spending is set to reach £600 billion – £10,000 for person in the UK, and twice as much as in 1997. If public spending had only grown in line with inflation since then, we could have abolished income tax, corporation tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax by now, leaving the taxpayer £200 billion better off. When you factor in government borrowing the picture is even worse – Tax Freedom Day does not come until June 14.

You can reach out and develop new skills more so than ever these days with the great big internet.

You can find more groups thatn ever before now and people who are willing to share info. Education doesn't havet to cost huge amounts of money.

When I took my Masters, I had to foot the bill, I invested in MYSELF, and I'm now reaping the rewards for that.

I don't expect anyone to pay for my own self-development. I certainly don't expect someone to foot the bill for me!

YOU have the power to change YOURSELF.
