Labour’s Campaign – Smears and Unfounded Fears – Part Two – Care For the Elderly

Labour’s campaign literature continues to feature stories that are meant to scare people about supposed Conservative party policies.  I have mentioned the Sure Start Scare in an earlier post – but now there is more!  The target for this round of Labour’s smears and unfounded fears are the elderly.  See the Beds on Sunday article here.

Literature from the Labour party delivered in Bedford and Kempston tries to insinuate that free bus travel will not be safe under the Conservatives.  As this is a complete fabrication, and because the Labour party know that they are not telling the truth, their leaflets are “spin” at its worst.  Shame on the Labour Party for treating the electorate like this.

With people’s trust in politics so badly shaken by this departing Parliament,  I call on the Labour MP for Bedford and Kempston to disown the Smears and Unfounded Fears that are becoming a hallmark of his campaign and join with me in a “clean election pledge” that will concentrate on the issues and on the facts and on our competing visions for the future of our town.
