There is too much of this from local Labour politicians round the country, I have seen plenty in Reading for example, they specialise in the Big Lie and David Davis has been called racist and defamed by having remarks attributed to him that he did not make.

All they have to do, is get some lacky to make bullsh*t remarks, and their pals in the media pick up on it (i'm damn sure the Beeb will oblige)and give it an wide airing so that the it does damage. This government has also been responisble for the influx of migrants into this country, because of the old Labour idea about such poor people being natural Labour voters. Perhaps they cannot now be sure that these people will be voting Labour, after seeing so much of their meagre earnings going to the treasury, so they want to convince them that the Conservatives are racist and hate them!<BR/>Good news for the Tories though, shows how sad and desperate Labour really are.
