RE: LABOUR’S decline What a shambles. First let us not forget Labour dished out the money so being out of work with a large family became a career choice and increased our welfare bill into austerity as reported by the media.

First with the help of Blair they became a middle class party ignoring the origin of Labour which was a party for the working class. We now have Jeremy Corbyn who is likened by some to Hitler. We then have Owen Smith who has decided to stand who wants also to wipe out democracy by suggesting a review and possibly the new vote on Europe.

Let me remind all parties we are a democratic country and accept everyone of our community to have free choice to worship as they want be themselves whatever form that represents as long as they do not break the law of the land.

We need a strong opposition party who can challenge the government policies.
