Role on may 5th

First blog entry for nearly a week, I must do better.

Uncle Tony went to see her maj today, so its now official, 5th May will be the date of the general election, and I still don't know who I'm voting for.

On the whole I am now inclined towards Labour. True I think that their tax policies are underhand and basically dishonest. And I also think that too many people are getting too much in the way of handouts, but their heart is in the right place. And at most of the tax is going to where its needed, but I would prefer it if it was an honest 1 or 2% on income tax, rather than the stealthy way that its been done.

Other than tax, I do agree with Blair & co on some of the major issues, such as the War in Iraq, identity cards and the house arrest of terrorist suspects. They have also managed the ecconommy better than most other European countries. So on balance, at the moment, they will get my vote.
