HE SAYS: Are you fed up with policticians growing farther apart from the people and their aspirations? Are you disillusioned with there being nobody in politics who comes from the real world in which you live and work?

You are right to be so, especially during this election campaign when confrontation and slagging-off seem to be the order of the day.

Even here in Worcester, Labour have just tried to frighten you into voting for them, because of what they say the Conservatives will do.

I am fed up with it also - particularly the Labour lies about Conservative policies.

Trying to frighten pensioners that we shall take away Winter Fuel Allowance, TV licences and Christmas bonuses is a disgrace. It is not true. We will remove taxes on income and savings while upping pension payments.

I have set out a clear positive picture of what I propose - and pledge.

1. Review urgently the NHS situation

2. Let police wage war on crime

3. Set teachers free to teach

4. See that pensioners get a fair deal

5. Keep the Pound

Keeping the Pound is vital at this election. I am the only serious choice on Polling day for those who are set against scrapping the pound.

Presumably Mike Foster has done his best in Worcester, but slavishly following the party line on all matters has meant residents have got a poor deal from their elected representative.

Of course he has also preoccupied himself with matters with no relevance to the City of Worcester.

I shall put the people first. This is why I am standing for Parliament. Coming from a business background of real world experience, I can and will stand up properly for everybody in Worcester.

Vote for me. I'll not let you down.
