Dear Concerned Readers,
In 2010 there were many of us out there who expected great things from the general election. It appeared Labour would finally be out of office and a new Conservative administration would be sworn in to sort out Britain’s crises. However, here we are in 2011 and there is very little good to point out…
1. After a terrible election campaign focusses solely on the “leader” David Cameron squandered the golden opportunity and we were left with a hung Parliament.
2. With total discourtesy to his backbenchers David Cameron lied his way into No. 10 by lying about Liberal Democrat offers to Labour.
3. Since then we have had a government defined by it’s broken promises and total disregard for the voters.
David Cameron promised we Conservatives…
- Lower Taxes
- Less Spending
- Less Regulation
- Powers Repatriated from The EU
- A Tough Approach On Crime
But what have we been left with I ask?
- Higher Taxes with the 50% rate maintained and a VAT and Capital Gains rise!
- Higher Spending! Yes, ignore the rubbish Cameron peddles about rolling back the state, by 2015 spending will be higher in both cash AND real terms!(http://www.johnredwoodsdiary.com/2010/08/12/the-cuts/)
- More Big Government Regulation (Eric Pickles excepted) (http://www.spectator.co.uk/coffeehouse/6541323/who-are-the-governments-regulation-busters.thtml)
- More Powers Passed To The EU (http://www.talkcarswell.com/show.aspx?id=1705) and a pathetic “EU Bill” more offensive than useful (http://www.talkcarswell.com/show.aspx?id=1750)
- A “Bleeding Heart Liberal” approach to crime led by fake tory in chief Kenneth Clarke (http://conservativehome.blogs.com/thetorydiary/2010/12/michael-howard-attacks-ken-clarkes-fatally-flawed-prisons-policy.html)
Needless to say this government has let down every single conservative out there who spent days knocking on doors with the belief that Cameron wouldn’t be another Blair and would deliver. Well we were wrong, Cameron is a spin doctor like all the rest and has shown utter contempt for the british people whilst breaking every single promise he made.
We should not be forced to take this any more, conservatives need to rise up to take back the party that THEY built! David Cameron has been leader for 6 paltry years, that does not give him the right to tear down everything we hold dear.
So this blog is here, for all those who feel let down by this appalling coalition government…
So for all those out there who still believe in Tradition, Freedom and Sovereignty… let us start the journey towards a conservative nation once more!
