I heard the education woman from Labour on BBC this morning.
anyone being seduced by the free tuition fees really needs to look a bit closer at who is going to hammered by Labours tax hike to fund it.
are you paying any sort of tax? then it will be you.
why are people just still not getting it. there is no such thing as FREE someone, somewhere always, always has to pay for it.
I think that the tories have started to talk about the unthinkable. too many govts have pushed the football of elderly care down the road but really we all have to man up a bit and deal with it now. you cannot hope to have the state paying for 20 or 30 years of care - because this is the reality when people retire in their 60's and live well into their 80's + - and you still keep hold of your £500K house to pass on to your family.
we have to stop doing this - seeing money as going from one generation to the next and view it for what it is - something to spend and use whilst alive.
and yes, this does go for all the hereditary titled people as well.
Nothing is Free. everything costs and Labour in particular is taking us for fools by thinking that a free bit of this and a free bit of that as well as a free unicorn for everyone is going to sway people.
if labour get in I just despair.
and as for Corbyn and his credentials, I know the man, I worked with him. and the interview he gave about the IRA confirms to me that nothing about him has changed.
he will never ever get my vote.
