The 10p tax issue was merely the final nail in the coffin – not the main reason Labour are declining in popularity – it was the conference season last year that the electorate saw the difference in the two parties & the actions of Gordon Brown during the Tory conference by going to Iraq that started the slide – everything else afterwards was just a rolling stone gathering more and more moss!
