Vote Labour to put an end to the willful destruction of our NHS that resulted in four-year-old Jack Williment-Barr being forced to lie on the floor of his local hospital whilst awaiting treatment.
We are the third richest country in the world, and this is how we treat the sick and vulnerable. Do more than Boris Johnson; look at this photograph and consider the words of the UN report "Considering the significant resources available in the country and sustained and widespread cuts to social support, which have resulted in significantly worse outcomes, the policies pursued since 2010 amount to regressive measures in clear violation of the country's human rights obligations"
The Tories have had nine years to recover from a global economic crash they continue to erroneously blame Labour for. When they've had that long and still done nothing, how can anyone believe them when they say they will right these wrongs now? How can anyone believe them when they refuse to even look at photographic evidence of such wrongs and dismiss the UN's findings as inaccurate. How can anyone believe the intentions of a party who, when confronted with this photo, resorted to spreading lies and smears to cover their own hides?
To make the change we need, to stop our children and the sick and the vulnerable from suffering, vote Labour on Thursday.
Mark, I admire your politics but I truly believe that you're banging your head against a brick wall. After listening to some of the comments of the constituents of him I wont name..they seem to think he speaks for them!!!...he's one of us!!!...he'll get things done!!!
ReplyDeleteI truly despair, I've always considered Scottish & English working class politics to have more that unite us than divides..though they did have an alarming tendency to vote Tory, but I never considered the English as a completely different political species but this last few years I've watched horrified as that thought has been alarmingly disproved.
I'm not sure if this lurch to the right is a blip or if the post war welfare state years were a blip and England has just reset it's default mechanism..for your sake and everyone else's i sincerely hope this is not the case.
Mate, if what I write on here, or what I say canvassing on the doorstep or on the phone, makes just one person vote Labour then it's worth it. Yes it's a frustrating state of affairs, there'll always be someone who thinks 'Boris, what's he like? He just says what we all think innit', but doing the right thing is never a worthless exercise, so no I don't feel like I'm banging my head against a wall particularly. What's the old phrase, 'the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing'. Whatever the outcome this week, I don't want to look back and feel like I've done nothing and, going forward, I'll continue. Start small, start local, keep going.
DeleteMark, sorry if it appeared that I was being disrespectful, it wasn't my intention.
ReplyDeleteGod no, not at all mate
