I have just caught up with the weeks news (I told you its been busy) and I just wanted to air my disgust at the Labour Postcard that was sent out to cancer suffers. If you don’t know the story read it here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/election_2010/8614075.stm
If we ignore for a second all of the ethical issues about how they generated the list to send this postcard to 250,000 of the most venerable people in our communities – Lets focus for a second on the fact that the party actually sent a leaflet almost claiming that people would die if they didn’t win the next election!?! What crazy idiot sitting in an office thought that would be a good idea? Maybe it was Harriet Harman; sound like the kind of thing she’d approve...
If you fancy fighting fire with fire in your own area, Harriet Harman released a document this year proving that under this labour gov’t the life expectancy of a poor person is 13 years lower than a middle earner – put that on a postcard. Party for the people my ass!
