So what does David Cameron and the Conservatives have to do today to cement their chance for the next term? Quite frankly, in my opinion, some honesty would be a welcome change compared to the half truths or just plain secrative nature of the party heard at yesterday's conference. George Osborne outlined savings of £7billion's a year should they get elected, but this just baffels me. Was George not aware of the £175billion borrowing this year and next? Quite frankly I see this as dishonesty - do the conservatives not realise that what the Bristish people want is some honest, open and forthright truth? Tell it like it is please; express the issues we face as a country and be confident in your abilities to change this around.
My feelings are that they have more plans than they are letting on and that many policy decisions and full cuts will remain secret until enforced. If they were more honest and open, maybe more voters would turn out for the election, because they would have some real decisions to make.
If they don't, I think the Conservatives won't win the election, but instead the Labour party will lose it!

Quite. Their economy gurus have already admitted that the measures Osborne announced will barely make a dent in the deficit - so where are they going with this? And does it matter? A local economist told a meeting here recently that our debt levels are actually quite good compared with the last century, and it's only because of the boom of the last ten years that the current debt looks so awful.
