This is why you have to put a X next to UKIP on 22nd May and next year's General election...enough is enough.

I can never trust Labour with my future in this country.

1. Freeze energy bills: blatant politicking and I've yet to understand how this will work. Can the government walk into Tesco, for example, and demand they cut the price of baked beans? In any case, several energy firms have already announced price-freezes on their own volition, recognising the public displeasure.

2. Get tough on immigration: like they did during their last term, you mean?

3. Guarantee a starter job: see 1. I'm sure any job will be minimum wage, for a minimum period and be absolutely no guarantee of further employment. Besides, unemployment is falling rapidly as it is.

4. Guaranteed childcare: blatant politicking. Has to be paid for, too. I'd like to see some benefits for those without children - just for a change: I've always said if you can't afford 'em don't have 'em.

5. NHS: to be fair, I don't know enough to comment on this. I'm an NHS user and don't seem to have any problems getting a doctor's appointment and I do have certain specialist needs which I've never had a problem accessing, neither. Maybe I'm just lucky not to live in an inner city. I could go private - but the NHS works for my needs, right now.
