It makes me smile when obviously working class people refuse to vote for Labour or some other left wing party. The Labour party was founded with the support of unions ie workers. I can sort of see why some working class people might vote Tory etc if they have made a few bob for themselves in order to protect their wealth although I would question the morality of doing this-forgetting where they came from/ all the sacrifices their forefathers have made for them etc. The Tories are only interested in pleasing big business and people with money they are not bothered about the ordinary person on the street who is scraping a living. I accept that Labour are not perfect and have their foibles but they have ordinary people, like you Ellis, interests at heart. Right wing groups like UKIP have no interest in workers pay and rights and are only interested in deflecting blame and scapegoating ordinary people for all the countries ills. How many times have they blamed the bankers for the sh it state this country is in?
