07/01/05 - Lib Dems, Alternative Action

Liberal Alternative Action

Crime: The Lib Dems are soft on crime.  They want to reward offenders with go-karting trips, abolish mandatory sentences, stop jailing criminals and give prisoners the vote.

Schools: The Lib Dems want to abolish faith schools, grammar schools and selection in schools, abandoning children to a one size fits all system.

Hospitals: Instead of trusting health professionals and managers to run the health service, the Liberal Democrats want power to remain in the hands of politicians, and to complicate things further by giving some powers to local authorities.

Immigration: The Lib Dems want to hand over control of our borders to the unelected, unaccountable EU, by agreeing to a common asylum policy.

Tax: The Lib Dems are a high tax, high and wasteful spend party.  They have already announced over 40 tax rises, including a new 50 pence rate, new taxes on holidays and new taxes on drivers.  These are to try to pay for the over 100 spending commitments they have made.

Councillor Justin Tomlinson, North Swindon Conservative Parliamentary Candidate, "The Liberal Alternative Action makes it very clear why the Liberal's came last in every single Council seat contested in North Swindon in last June's elections."

"We have set a clear timetable for action, delivering on the real issues that matter to local residents."
