HOW sad it is to see so many ordinary working people buying the Tory message that they are the ‘party of the poor’, that they will look after our education system and our health care better than the Labour Party, etc.

Please remember ‘conserve’ means hang on to, and that is exactly what the Tories want to do. They want to hang on to their power and privileged society.

Labour may be going through a bad patch but when all is said and done it is always an infinitely better proposition than voting Tory.

Vote Tory if you want mass unemployment, run down schools and an NHS that will be dying on its feet.

And finally remember which party in West Cheshire is proposing to waste £16 million of our money building a glorified talking shop, and not even in the centre of the authority but in posh Chester.
