They wont apply the Mansion Tax, yet want to hit us with the Bedroom Tax - why, the rich members of businesses donate to the Tory Party.
Recently, Cameron and Osborne were seen having a major party which we paid for in our taxes, if that was one of us, we would get slated.
And today l was watching a programme where an elderly lady was hit by high bills and no one would help until the great Red Cross got involved.
We all know where the Coalition policies lay, and that's not with the working person.
Coming up soon you will have them taking away the Tv Licence for the elderly, free travel for the elderly and yet they will still send billions to overseas countries.

I remember a few years ago our local council were found to have spent £110 on toilet seats in the council house.
You imagine how much money it costs to maintain the houses of parliament I bet you will find no austerity there
