So the conservative manifesto is out. You can take a look here . For me it actually looks quite good. I am still not convinced that the tories are able to run the country but if they could keep to their promises I would be quite happy. Lower taxes, more police, better education, action on Yob culture, stricter immigration laws (this particularly, is about time - I am no racist but we seem to allow anyone into this country and let them soak up benefits, jobs etc. while we have people living on our streets). For me personally it may make no difference at all. I live in the constituency of Poplar and Canning Town and if you take a look at that link you will see that in 2001 Labour won with a majority of over 40% and an actual share of 60% of the votes. So any chance they will not be labour again? I doubt it. The problem with where I live (Isle of Dogs) is that although Canary Wharf and everything next to the water is lovely appartments and all new and shiney, the rest of it is council and 'chavs'. :o)
