SIR: Vote Labour and you will hold your head up high. The Tories have undone all our ancestors have fought and died for. There used to be the very rich and the very poor. It has partly come back, but will definitely go worse if Tories get in again. To get them out, for goodness sake, don't vote Liberal, as it will be a lost vote. You will be doing harm to Labour - our only hope.

Blair has better views - keeping hospitals run as they should be - NHS; keeping the welfare state, taking VAT off fuel; keeping trade unions (which the worker must have). Tony Blair will see we get a fair deal, otherwise we will go back to Dickens' days, and that will be a major disaster.

John Major has again copied some of Tony's ideas and said Tony's copied his. (Lies galore. Do not be conned). Labour is the party we can trust.
