Well they can vote libdem then. I wouldn't be unhappy with that. I wasn't suggesting they should vote Tory, I was simply suggesting they think about casting their vote rather than just blindly ticking a box.

I wouldn't argue with that.

The point of this thread is will public sector workers see it that way? or will they be a major anti tory vote when push comes to shove (I don't disagree that Labour may do exactly the same as the tories but it is perception that counts at an election).

The public sector is bust. Read up on how the NHS hospitals are funded for example. Its results based.

More operations = more income. Less staff = less income.

Its an inward spiral . As salaries are fixed under Agenda for Change.

A Tory Government will need 5 years just to correct matters let alone turn the situation round.

On a general note. We are all losers. Irrespective of party allegience. Unless we are prepared for a major change in attitude. The old party politics are dead. Society has moved on.

I have a hunch that many students will vote for the conservatives…..

Today's students are more conservative than previous generations.
Research by the National College of Legal Training claims Generations Y's students are less embracing of liberal culture than their Generation X parents.

More than 80 percent would not legalise Class C drugs and almost one in five would increase the age of consent for heterosexual sex.

Fewer than half want free music downloads, a third want to increase the legal age for driving a car and 53 percent favour zero tolerance on drink driving.

In-keeping with these conservative views, Tory leader David Cameron was the most appealing Prime Minister among the 1, 142 students with Gordon Brown (17 percent) and Nick Clegg (14 percent) just behind.

The monarchy received the support of 70 percent of students. Almost a quarter called for captial punishment to be reinstated.
