Different worlds...

I don't know what world Lynda Waltho lives in, but its one I don't recognise. She should be very ashamed she belongs to a Government that has hurt the poorest so hard, where a pensioner on £89 a week pays the same council tax as a millionaire living in similar property.

The pretence that inflation is two per cent... is there anybody out there that believes that?

The basic needs such as food and heating, council tax has to be nearer 15 per cent for the poorest.

The conceit and arrogance of forcing through the doubling of income tax to 20 per cent for the poorest who are struggling to cope under this Government and our Lynda intends to support the Government on this issue!

It seems to me she is removed from reality and the suffering being felt by her poorest constituents. We are not all MPs living off the fat of the land.

sation...You name it. Perhaps you have a very bad memory. The 1980s were absolute hell. Our fathers and husbands lost their jobs in the recession. We have not had a recession since Labour took over. Conservative, took away our matrons hence the dirty hospitals which are now completely out of control. What about the poll tax £100 per month per person. YOPS schemes for the kids. Lining rich business mens pockets with cheap labour. So come on lets hear it.
