SIR: How on earth can anyone vote for Tony Blair and the "New" Labour Party? He is so desperate to win this election that he has changed all the policies that the Labour Party once stood for and, by adopting all the True Blue Conservative Policies, he shows such little respect for the true Labour voter that he has, in effect, given them a hefty kick in the teeth.
