Joel Bishop Attacks Lib Dems Over "Social Cleansing" Of The Poor From The Borough

As this blog has continually sought to point out to Labour voters in Earls Court, a tactical vote for Linda Wade inorder to get the Tories out would result only in electing a Lib Dem committed to supporting the same policies as the Conservatives on most issues Labour voters care about.  Linda Wade needs a collapse in the Labour vote, with many of those votes going to her, if she has a chance of winning.  That's why the Lib Dem propaganda machine has always tried to give the impression that it is a two horse race, when in fact in May, Linda Wade received fewer votes than Joel Bishop!   See the blog article "Liberal Democrat Misinformation In The Earls Court By Election":  http://barryphelps.posterous.com/liberal-democrat-misinformation-in-the-earls  It's all about creating impressions and manufacturing a momentum, by trying to make such arrogant statements in their deluge of election literature become a reality by inculcation.

Readers of this blog might be interested in what Joel Bishop has to say about how the Lib Dems are fully signed up to supporting the Coalition government's cuts in housing benefit.  The Kensington Labour Party blog highlights this important issue, by stating, "In their frantic attempts to win votes in the Earl’s Court by-election, the Lib Dems are trying to dissociate themselves from the coalition government’s plans to cut housing benefit.  Kensington & Chelsea council has admitted that the cuts will drive up to 3,000 families out of the borough."  Joel Bishop rightly states that, "People have a right to stay in their homes. I do not want Earl’s Court or any part of Kensington & Chelsea to become an area where only the rich can live".  For more information see the Kensington Labour Party website here http://kensingtonlabour.com/2010/09/14/lib-dems-running-scared/ Print this post
