Yesterday I was out in Stockton with the latest Conservative leaflet about debt. Every child born today will inherit £17,000 of debt thanks to Gordon Brown. The “Mum’s eyes. Dad’s nose. Gordon Brown’s Debt” message is one that resonated with everyone I met. This government seem determined to throw good money after bad and it seems there are no lengths to which they will not to go try to win the next election. Interestingly the Labour MP has put out some glossy leaflets about the economy as well, its just that her are paid for by the taxpayer. When families are hard pressed and we face a painful recession it amazes me that Stockton Labour think taxpayer’s money should be spent in this way. It seems the MP has learned nothing after being fined £500 late last year for the abuse of Parliamentary allowances.
