Minimum wage well if it wasnt so hard to bring in why hadnt it happened before? those tories would have done it surely?

Because they're funded by business, perhaps? *hint* They also care less about the poor than New Labour does, which is saying a lot. To the Tories the poor can rot in hell, just so long as their funders get their cheap labour for ?2 an hour.

As a non-driver I don't mind that particular tax.

One little point here. Are you working-class and living in the sticks? Think what high fuel VAT does to them! Not everyone lives round the corner from a bus stop, a train station or their work place. Even if so, would you want the only people able to afford their own transport to be the rich?

I'm saying that it's an easy policy change. I'm saying that they're not as greedy and vindictive as the Tories, not quite. I'm saying that I wouldn't vote for either of them.

I voted for him before I knew what he was like. I haven't voted at all since.

After murdering all our troops in Iraq I say he's fair game!

I would vote, but the parties in question aren't running in my area.
