28 November - The battle of Crayford
I
will forever find it mind boggling that any individual can vote in favour of vulnerable
old people being condemned to misery in a cold house and, if the Labour Party’s Risk Assessment
proves to be accurate, around 4,000 of them to die as a result. How does someone sleep soundly
in a cosy bed at night after doing that? Has the newly elected MP for Crayford any conscience
at all? Will he be made to pay the electoral price in five years time? One must hope so.
Fortunately Crayford is not totally without a humane political face; its ward Councillor,
Melvin Seymour, has taken the lead in promoting Bexley Council’s response to Labour’s attack on pensioners. Warm
spaces and the Bexley Box of Winter Warmers, food, blankets, clothes etc.
And before I am accused of sour grapes for my loss of £300; I am not going into details here, but I gave mine away.
You won’t find any Labour MP doing that.
