You cannot spend 500£ on something else because you saved 400£ on a £800 camera that was going to cost 1200£ without increasing your borrowing further, and to boot he says he can and while doing it he would achieve it taking a pay drop from the country with less taxes. The guy makes no sense what so ever and if he plans on winning a country over with such foolish statements he has about as much chance of building millenium dome #2.
In my book their bs promises are written on paper not fit to wipe any persons ass with, they will say anything to try and get their way and when questioned they will all avoid a direct answer allways. This has been proved time and time again no matter who is in office.

There is some truth in what you say about the unreliability of politicians and governments. The last Conservative government under Major was one of the worse for sleaze. If anything it was probably one of the main reasons they were voted out as day after day there were new revelations and scandals.
It should have been an object lesson to New Labour on how not to run a government. Instead New Labour took the Conservative sleaze and turned it into an art form, paying large salaries and pensions to lots of people who didn't deserve them at the expense of the taxpayer.
Maybe it is time to give the Lib-Dems a chance as they are the only party whuich hasn't had a chance to cock things up.
