THE UK economy has become much weaker under Labour and the Conservatives. Both have let personal debt soar, rather than control our economy.
This gave people the impression that they were better off than they really were.
Another aspect of the US economy which the UK can do without. If the Government had run a tight ship and encouraged people to live within their means, we would not be in the state that we are now in.
I would encourage local people to vote Liberal Democrat at the forthcoming General Election – it is time for a change.
Councillor Ben Ord, Chairman, Spennymoor Liberal Democrats.
