Are you thinking what I’m thinking? It’s all very well asking people to vote for change but what change? I think the Tories may have shot themselves in the foot with this slogan. People are always wary of change. I found when I was a manager that managing change was one of the most difficult things to do. In this they haven’t told us what exactly they are going to change except for slashing public spending in a big hurry. Cameron correctly identified that Bruiser Brown had destroyed the pensions industry but never explained what he was going to do to put it right. Any pensioner off the street could have told him that. What we want to know is, is he going to put right the anomalies with PPF & FAS and what about fair pensions for all (the citizens’ pension). Gordon’s use of “a future fair for all” is better and will appeal to all fair thinking voters. Under him though the future has not been fair for pensioners by any means so I’m not impressed with him either but on balance I think Labour win the battle of the slogans. What is the Lib Dems going to be and can anyone tell me what they are actually standing for this time round?
The Tories have always believed that unemployment was good for the country and from what I see of this lot nothing much seems to have changed,

A very good post again Bob. I reckon whoever might or might not get in I won't be any better off!
Again-and this really does worry me-I find myself agreeing.I understand the sentiment behind the phrase but the point I think is that many things are wrong in this country at the moment because of too much change ,poorly thought out and executed.Think the phrase should be "vote for a change to rubbish change".yes thats why I shall not be applying for a job as my parties slogan maker.
What will you do about Ashtongate?
There'e scandle already and they're not in power. The nasty party haven't changed.
If you were to come to the forum and someone told you that if you leave your money at the gate it would be doubled by the time you came back-perfectly legally.Would you do it? I've thought this way since the expenses scandal started too.Theres a parable in some religion about making sure your bag of gold increases.The bit about promises for positions, I'm not sure I understand, as those people concerned didnt appear to be in a position to grand those favours anyway."the nasty party" You really cant label a whole group of people by individual actions.Or can you? Is that why people are loathe to vote for ANY of the major parties????
Quite probably Margaret, the problem with Tory policies in the past and now to some extent is that they reflect the wishes of the rich against the poor.
Yay "to some extent" is this a breakthru for a die hard labour supporter??????The social policies of the blues have changed radically since the previous leader.And listen carefully to the Muslim woman on social affairs =you wont see much difference from your lot methinks .Not enough room here for work policies.On a personal note I have become the poorest I.ve ever been in my life since I joined the conservatives but if I ever get a bag of gold again I would like to get the opportunity to increase it and spend it on my family!
