Vote Conservative!
Posted by ePlus on 22 April, 2005 at 21:24 pmWhat Conservatives stand for
Conservatives come from every background and walk of life. They can be found in every local community in our land, working for the common good. They adapt to changing social conditions and face up to new challenges as our country evolves - but they are united around a set of core principles.
Personal Freedom
Conservatives believe the people should be big, and the state should be small. That is why we are determined to thin down Labour’s fat government. Today Labour’s bloated bureaucracy is the same size as the population of Sheffield - and there are more civil servants in the Department of Work and Pensions than there are soldiers in the British Army. We will freeze civil service recruitment and reduce the mountain of regulations which Labour has inflicted on Britain - its businesses, its education service and its NHS.
Enterprise and Opportunity
Conservatives believe that personal happiness and economic success alike flourish when individuals and families are free to seize opportunities in their own way. It is the task of government to increase opportunities and remove barriers to them. Above all, we believe in the benefits of low taxes. It is right that people keep more of what is theirs - because it leads to greater economic success that benefits everyone.
Choice
Conservatives believe that people need choice to exercise responsibility - which is the hallmark of a free society. Putting choice directly in the hands of parents and patients means that funding for schools and hospitals goes straight to the front line - and drives improvements in quality to make the users of public services satisfied with them.
Community
Conservatives are at the forefront of community life and understand what duty to family, neighbourhood and the nation as a whole involves. It means looking out for those that need a helping hand - elderly people, youngsters in need of guidance and all those who call on the services of others. It means care for our environment which we hold in trust for future generations. These are simple, decent values but they have been subverted in Britain today by political correctness which we are determined to roll back.
Safety and Stability
Conservatives know that there is no more fundamental duty than the maintenance of the rule of law which is the bedrock of a secure and peaceful life. Up and down our land we will reintegrate our police men and women once more with the communities they serve, increasing their numbers, cutting the paperwork which now ties them down and sending them out in our service with the powers they need to overcome crime and help our society recover discipline, decency and respect. And we will restore pride in our Armed Forces who not only protect us from external threat but contribute so much to the peace of the wider world.
A Nation State
Conservatives believe in the great national institutions - monarchy, Parliament, the courts of law- which enshrine our country’s values and guard its identity. Our currency is another symbol of our nationhood. That is why we are determined to stop the pound being scrapped. The biggest threat to our national identity today is the European Constitution. We believe that the people should be given a referendum at the earliest possible moment- and we will campaign for the rejection of the Constitution.
So why vote Conservative? Well for starters their head isn’t as far up their asses as the Labour Party has. Seriously, they come up with so much rubbish that is unbelievable. Raised taxes, you get taxed for buying your own house (clever move), and the best part you have to pay for someone that isn’t working! That’s right folks; your hard earned cash go out to some hairy fat un-employed bum that sits on his/her ass old day watching TV. Good move that. Living on benefits. You know there was an article that I read in this magazine that this guy, I think he was something like 19, and his girlfriend, had 4-5 kids and another one on its way and the guy said “Why should I work if I get paid?” - Good one you stupid moron that can’t spell 3 words correctly. He said “I’ll rather stay at home and watch my children grow than be at work.”
Let’s recapitulate that:
1. He gets money because he is un-employed
2. He lives in a states/Government house, which of course, is paid by the Government.
3. He gets money from the Government for his children. (Child allowance)
So my tax money and all the rest that goes to the Government, goes on his ass. Fuck that. Your better off giving me �50 and going down there myself and kick his ass to go to work. I just cannot get over that. Well that’s it, why not all of us stay home do nothing and get paid for it? Pretty good eh? I think that’s what my next full time job is going to be. I can just see myself, chilling out on the sofa, watching TV eating Walker crisps. What a life…
Funny how I started about Conservatives vs. Labour and I ended up ranting about something else. Like if anyone is going to care?!
That’s it for tonight. More to come tomorrow night after work when I will be too tired to even know what I am doing.
