2) The stakes are obvio...1) I'm not a Marxist.<br /><br />2) The stakes are obvious in this election. The choice is one between producing a crime plan and holding the force to account for the benefit of communities most affected by crime, or a programme that will see services chopped up and sold off to the private sector. <br /><br />I am very sorry that's not revolutionary enough for you.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06298147857234479278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486641877026778105.post-80524326436970950782012-10-30T20:39:47.610+00:002012-10-30T20:39:47.610+00:00"Labour candidates who will make the best of ..."Labour candidates who will make the best of a funding cut from central government"<br /><br />They certainly will be making the best of it - a salary of £75,000 will do them very nicely indeed! <br /><br />It's all paid for out of the cuts to services of ordinary people on ordinay wages. How anyone who used to call themselves a Marxist can support someone who will happy taking this salary is unbelievable. <br /><br />The leader of Staffordshire County Council is paid an annual allowance of £35,000 per year to run a budget of over £400 Million, while the Staffordshire Police and Crime Commissioner is paid over twice as much to run a budget only half the size!<br /><br />With rewards like that at stake, it's little wonder that the Labour candidate was out canvassing for every vote she can get, rather than join the TUC March.<br /><br />Fortunately the vast majority of people will see through the 'noses in the trough' and crocodile tears of the Labour Party and boycott this despicable election and Labour candidate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
