The major issue remains helping people to escape poverty. Poverty is so predictive of health, education and lots of other things.

Politics has to be for the long game. We need to get the environment at the centre of all policies but I bet we wont.

Just to make my position clear........

I am, and I remain, a loyal Labour Party worker. I don't expect to agree with everything the party or the government does. But I will say this; if you doubt your councilliors and MPs go and talk to them. You will find they are honest and helpful,regardless of perty, with the probable exception of the BNP. Then go and read the Mail, Express, Sun, Star and Sport and decide who does the most honest job, your elected members or the press.
