Fri 30th Apr 2010

Whilst it is only to be expected that a parliamentary candidate attempts to portray him or herself as a person who takes action on behalf of the people, Iain Duncan Smith appears to be so devoid of examples of such action that he has resorted to claiming the the credit for the work of others.

Seeff Slams "Broken Society" Claim

Sun 31st Jan 2010

Following the latest research report from his "independent" think tank, Iain Duncan Smith and the Tories once again invoke the spectre of a "broken society" in an attempt to frighten law abiding citizens. Violence, child abuse, drink and drugs related crime and unwanted pregnancies are, they claim, more prevalent amongst children brought up by cohabiting parents who (they say) are less likely to provide a stable family life. They conclude from this that if marriage is encouraged through tax breaks, parents would stay together whilst bringing up their children and the problems will disappear. Geoff Seeff, LibDem prospective parliamentary candidate for Chingford and Woodford Green despairs at this reasoning.
