Conservative David Cameron announced a policy - Labour stole it within 24 hours - should he do it again ?

Question

The Conservative leader announced a policy : that soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan should be exempt from Income tax while serving in these places.

The Labour Government stole the policy within 24 hours. So in view of this perhaps he is quite right not to reveal detailed policy until near a General Election? What do you think? Whilst good policy should be implemented perhaps Labour can come up with its own policies ?

Answer 1

David Cameron and his shadow cabinet have shown that they've got no policies, except those that Michael Howard had, such as:

de-regulating childcare - making thousands of qualified workers jobless, and putting millions of children at risk of harm.

scrapping tax credits - making millions of families worse off - subsequently they won't be able to afford childcare.

At least the Labour Party will not copy these policies!

The conservatives are not fit for the purpose of government and are going to find this in the next General election, especially as they are loosing the opinion poll advantage they had six weeks ago.
