Here we go again – the Conservatives stated a short time ago that Fracking was the right way to go to get fuel and now there is a General Election all of a sudden they have done another one of their “FAMOUS U TURNS!” They now say they are planning to make Fracking illegal. But with every known machine in place that has to do with Fracking and if they get back in power they will find a good enough excuse to legalise Fracking again – so it will be a “DOUBLE U TURN!”
One has to ask why make it a General Election promise? Answer to please the public and their concerns and also another ploy to get votes.
The Sunday Express – world famous for their POLLING GAMBITS and asking: “Do Pensioners Deserve a Rise?” I am sure it wasn’t the Senior Citizens that tabled this motion. It is another ploy of the Conservative Government to BRIBE our Senior Citizens into voting for them after the devastating news of getting them to pay for their Television Licences. The newspaper quoted £344 rise in their pensions and I presume this will begin next April 2020, bearing in mind that amount will be taxable plus the £165 of that will go to purchase your TV Licence.
Also another tax that the Conservatives have levied on the public is the new ROAD TAX on HYBRID CARS and yet THE RICH ARE EXEMPT FROM PAYING WINDOW TAX whereas Joe Public are not exempt – Does that sound right to you – probably if you are a rich conservative it does?
The Conservatives are adept at TAXING THE POOR, THE DYING AND THE DEAD and they always will.
BORIS JOHNSON has stated: “You’ve got to vote for the Conservatives otherwise you’ll have Jeremy Corbyn as Prime Minister.” That was rather a lyrical and singular statement to make – what about the Lib Dems? But I feel that they will be batting against the public’s wishes of not wanting to stay in the E.U. That’s why I think they will lose lots of votes because the referendum vote result wanted OUT of EUROPE, unless another public referendum is in the offing before the General Election!
There are voters that are so fed up with their M.P’s that they will refuse to vote and this is because the will of the people is being ignored and I’m sure Members of Parliament can’t be that thick to see the writing on the wall!
If the Conservatives get back in power, the first thing they will do is give themselves a pay rise as a celebratory fee!
We mustn’t forget the Millionaire Backers that want to keep the Conservatives in power and I’m sure we all know the reason why – for protection against having to pay the tax they have been exempt from paying!
More importantly the Government have seen fit to close down and starve essential services of financial monies needed for the care of the elderly and infirm, the homeless, N.H.S. and other services too numerous to mention.
The above is just my opinion and anyone who wants to write to me care of the newspaper regarding the content – please do so! Swear words are not accepted.
