Not to speak of why the day before he was talking about the unaffordability of future needs for the elderly. Turning this to Crewe and Nantwich, my guess is that the U-turn on the 10% business will get a few votes back, but not enough from a Labour point of view. Once things have gone sour for a Party people look at the negative side of things, as my attitude exemplifies, rather than change their minds back in respnse to favours. I agree with Mike Robertson, but I think after recent local elections and polls Labour will have done well from their point of view if they manange to retain Crewe and Nantwich.

If only they's done that sooner. Could this possibly make a difference to the Crewe and Nantwich vote? It would be a shame if naked electioneering didn't work. :) Mike S, the link's been changed now, for 1 second you had me really excited.
