Frontline services are of course areas where resources must be protected, but are they all operated in the most cost effective way? It seems reasonable to assume that there are cuts that can be made in these services without posing a risk to our standards of living. Labour, as always, are using scare tactics to try and sway the public, but it worries me a great deal more when a party claims they can save our economy without any kind of sacrifice in some of the main areas of spending. Labour are trying to say we can all have our cake and eat it, which makes me deeply suspicous.
Both Labour and the Conservatives are using the tactic of saying a vote for the Lib Dems is a vote for the opposite party, but surely they can’t both be right!
