A) considering that the Labour Party have only been in power for 13 out of the last 50 years, what did they do in that time* that makes you feel that way?

B) What do you think the Labour Party will do if they get elected, that would make you not vote for them?

C) What could persuade you to vote for them?


*not including the farrago that was the Iraq War (which was also supported by the Conservatives)
A) There're the WMD lies, Sir Tony taking for granted the votes in 'safe' seats and doing nothing in return for the support they gave.

B) I'll not vote for them because the leadership couldn't give a damn about working class people. Keir talks about his sister working for the NHS but let's be honest, he's only Labour because he's a career Liberal who's worked out he's not going to be able to feed his ego if he shows his true colours. The party is meant to be democratic but Keir is going out of his way to stamp on it.

C) An apology, a change in leadership and a change in direction back towards supporting the working class would be a start.
