I wouldn’t go as far as to say Britain is a joke.

Comment on Why I’ll Never Vote Conservative at a General Election by James.

I wouldn’t go as far as to say Britain is a joke. I am also well travelled and we are a well respected country. But I do agree about Labour. While they have done some good things, I fundamentally disagree with their style and approach to government.

I live in Swindon North a marginal seat held by Labour with a 3.12% lead over the Conservatives, money has in various forms been thrown at the constituency but all misdirected, poorly managed and ineffective. They use borrowing to fund such financial input, but with limited if any benefit.

1/3 of the population is employed by the government, and that not economic growth or prosperity has kept unemployment figures down. It is artificial employment and can not be sustained at current levels without increasing national and domestic debt further. While I agree that the NHS, and education among other services should not face drastic cuts, neither do the Conservative Party. They do however believe that government has got too big, which it has and therefore certain elements should be starved of funding, in particular expenisive Quango’s.

I believe that a Conservative government could and if elected will be great for Britain. I feel that taxation has got out of hand, not simply on income but also on fuel 70p per litre. (£1.10) Labour through their taxation take unfair levels of hard earned money from all levels of society. At the poorer end they tax with one hand then give very little back in the form of support. “Middle Britain” are keeping the government coffers afloat, yet they are unfairly treated in many aspects of everyday life. Poor schools, lack of university funding, more tax on consumer goods and inheritance of property.

Fair enough if you are an ardent Trade Unionist with little or no qualifications, then I would say don’t vote Conservative. However, if you have skills and qualifications that are being overlooked by a Labour government too intent on giving university places and jobs to people based on gender or colour of their skin, not on merit, I would say….

VOTE FOR FAIRNESS ,VOTE CONSERVATIVE
