Hiya Theland, nice to see you on a working day. I think many of us when we are young have idealist principles, but in holding those principles, we are naive enough to discount human nature. If only life really was San Francisco with flowers in our hair. When we grow up we realise that whilst we might be giving, others are in it for what they can get. I seriously think the Conservatives care more about this country than Labour does now. Mrs Thatcher did, and that's for sure. She may have been the working man's worst enemy at the time, and although I absolutely detested her, in retrospect I realise she was strong, she was principled, and she did what she thought was best for this country. There's a frightening underlying agenda with this current government. Big Brother is upon us - and from their appalling record, we can be assured that it's a case of do as we say, not as we do. I look at Gordon Brown - and people like Hazel Blears and Jacqui Smith - and find it incredible that we are allowing people like them to run this country. We must be out of our minds. Our freedoms are being systematically eroded, the long held principles of free speech are no more, we are taxed until we bleed, the welfare state is a disgrace, and this government does nothing but lie. It took a lot for me to change my political persuasion, but even though my parents would be horrified, this motley crew managed to convince me to do it. How can anyone be happy to vote for this so-called Labour party? Tell me.
