I presume that is lifted straight from the 1979 manifesto. All I can say is what an absolute load of cock and bull. Nationally [overall] EVERYONE [of any worth] says its down. OUR OWN INSPECTOR IN HYNDBURN says its DOWN [see last weeks Observer]. The residents of Peel Ward say its DOWN and I know its down and I actually know the figures. ITS DOWN MASSIVELY. Politicians under Labour can check the figures and make the police accountable. IF THERE WAS JUST ONE REASON TO VOTE TORIES OUT AND LABOUR IN IT IS CRIME.
Stupid statements are why the Conservatives are where they are with 170 seats.

Education is from birth to death. I dont know of any top up fees for people under 16. I dont agree with top up fees but do you think the Tories are going to reverse them??!!
I do know class sizes under 30, teaching assistants, pre school, sure start, post school, banning the sale of sports pitches to stop schools just surviving, childrens centres, more teacher training, 600 schools with outside toilets under the Tories in 97 and now school refurbishments at evry 2ndary school in Hyndburn and many primary schools. When you drive around, have a look.

And the Tories care??! Dont be stupid. One factory isnt an argument especially when it was run by 4 crooks fiddling the books, 4 known asset strippers. Nothing to do with workers or unions. Britain has several of the most efficient car plants in europe unionised eleswhere. Its just political rubbish.

It was over apparently in 97 when Labour took over. Then in 20012 when you lost again and going downhill with the minimun wage and theres a black hole and year on year Brown overforcasts the economy and we are all doomed.
NOW FOR REALITY. Longest period of economic growth, lowest period of inflation in 40 years, lowest interest rates for 40 years blah blah.. facts you cant argue with. Evry time some Tory says not only will growth decline but the economy will go bust what happens, growth exceeds all forcasts.. you cant argue with that and to do so means another 4 years in opposition because your suddenly not credible.
