Time for a change of leadership

This Government like no other has had a disastrous effect on the whole body politic in Britain.

We are no longer a democracy for which we fought so hard and made so many sacrifices in two world wars.

This Labour Government must rule by "dictat" and not through our elected Parliament. It does what the European constitution rule makers tell us and what America wants us to do.

In the schools teachers are told what they must do. The child comes last but the tests must be passed to prove their school is excellent and so will not be named and shamed, which would also mean less money.

The hospitals must first save money whilst the patient can wait. Targets will (no, must) be met, so ways are found to ensure the savings percentages go up whilst medical staff are lost, infections increase, the morale goes down but management numbers increase.

The hundreds of laws from the EU and government stop you and me doing what we know to be best and insisting we must do what we are told or we will be taken over.

Stress is everywhere and on everyone's faces.

Worst of all, no-one trusts anyone any more, least of all those in authority. They have promised so much and delivered so little.

But we can pull ourselves out of this quagmire. How?

It's time for a General Election. Time for the referendum we were promised on the European constitution.

Let us put the "Great" back into Great Britain.

Cllr Mrs Eileen Sandford MBE, Shrewsbury
