The government did away with free specs so therefore helping their business. That is, if you were to follow McKinstry's way of thinking, no? ;-)Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876355259363977853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17101458.post-51378114726096161972010-02-08T19:55:36.340+00:002010-02-08T19:55:36.340+00:00Trust me; the NHS do NOT dole out free glasses.

McKinstry's piece is ridiculous because ...Paul.<br />McKinstry's piece is ridiculous because it's too one-sided to be true. Magically he forgets to mention manufacturing workers, repeatedly kicked in the face by Labour. <br /><br />If Labour were so cynical why have they shunned them so pathetically throughout their tenure?<br /><br />Disability benefits being axed or made more tortuous on many occasions since at least 1999.<br /><br />Or University staff? Today's news is full of lecturers being axed. <br /><br />Or post office staff? And I could go on forever. <br /><br />The so-called Muslim vote? None of my Muslim friends will vote Labour ever again! Most won't bother, some will go for the LibDems. But I know more who may vote Tory than Labour this time round.<br /><br />McKinstry looks at what suits his political agenda and in doing so he writes a poisonous piece without a leg to stand on.<br /><br />It's this idea of a "grand design", a constant "socialist" conspiracy/social engineering that is just preposterous.Stan Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08877204795536395407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17101458.post-86664558232317471402010-02-08T11:44:48.996+00:002010-02-08T11:44:48.996+00:00It may be paranoid.

Certainly the Public sector has become bloated under labour and they may arguably have a pecuniary interest in voting Labour therefore. As to immigrants I read (note I'm not certain I believe it) in the DT that 80% of them vote labour. Now look at Harriet Harperson's equality bill. A cynical reading of it could suggest it was looking to promote actual or potential labour voters. Not least as the white Woking class in places like Stoke has left labour in droves. We sadly know where they're heading. Personally I feel it is likely that most immigrants do not actually vote.<br /><br />I stress now that I don't know the answers. However the Express is yes paranoid but they may be correct. It would take a sound reading of the evidence that led to the Express's conclusions before they are written off however. Certainly the public sector has expanded exponentially under New Labour that is an established fact and sources to reference that are aplenty.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11249817220736089013noreply@blogger.com
