Same old Tories


Would you buy a second hand car from this man? No - neither would I. If you want to see what Tory policy is in microcosm have a look at either Barnet or Essex Councils. Barnet has decided to charge residents who use services extra for doing so. So if you are a nice rich Tory in Barnet and don't need to use public services then you don't need to pay almost anything to the Council. If, however, you are a poorer resident and do, then it is coughing up time. As the Meerkat ad says: "Simples".

As for Essex, they have decided to outsource the entire Council's activities to IBM. Slash and burn. So if this is the new Tory Britain at local level - better watch out for when they get to national government.

Fire Brigade? Sorry Madam, that will be a £500 call out charge!. Payment on arrival.
