When Thomas lost his job we saved (and continue to save) our house and therefore our kids' school places thanks to the tax credit system introduced by labour, supported by libdems and opposed by tories. If the tories had been in power for the last 2 years I would have lost what I worked 20 years to build up, losing precious time with my babies to build it up. Personally I would find being homeless with 5 kids and moving them to some ghastly school too awful to contemplate - voting for people who get some things right some of the time is in my family's interest. People who don't vote for the lesser evil risk making me homeless - do you really want the 7 of us in your spare room?Phylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10810079414061023335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28839055.post-57130092557681530072010-05-06T23:27:22.379+01:002010-05-06T23:27:22.379+01:00I've compained about these people all my life ...I've compained about these people all my life ,, and I certainly won't stop now ,,no matter who wins !<br />Why should I chose a lesser evil ,,I don't want evil running my country ,, <br />Nor do I care if anyone reads my critique .,., that's one of my complaints ,, they don't bloody listen to the people who give them their jobs !

The cliché makes it sound bad, but it's a good thing. You get less evil."<br />For that reason I will vote for the least evil - always... mine and my kids' futures are at stake.Phylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10810079414061023335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28839055.post-4315153507521740672010-05-06T12:00:05.533+01:002010-05-06T12:00:05.533+01:00I was the first one in the polling station when it...I was the first one in the polling station when it opened at 7am so I could get it over and done with. Voted Lib-Dem this time instead of my usual as a protest vote.<br /><br />Enjoy your day.......Alistairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16667242161539996736noreply@blogger.com
