I appreciate it's a little late and many people have already voted, but if anyone's still thinking of voting Conservative, or knows someone who is, they might want to read / show them this, which is the best summary so far of why I have this overriding _horror_ of a Conservative government:

EDIT: It's been brought to my attention that some of the facts in the column might not be, you know, actual facts. Unfortunately I don't currently have the time or effort to chase down the truth of the conflict between the Council website claim that home care charges were introduced by Labour and the stories in the article (which I suspect is something like 'Labour introduced some home care charges, Conservatives increased them / widened their applicability'), but I thought I ought to stick on a disclaimer in any case.

OTOH, if you accept anecdata, [livejournal.com profile] athenegenia lives in the area and seems to think it's pretty accurate.
