LABOUR hate the countryside because most of the people who live there vote for other political parties.

Lib Dems and Conservatives beware: all this long-term house building on greenfield land in rural areas is shameless Labour at their devious best, even while out of government.

Think about it?

Build houses on greenfield land while we import over 41 per cent of the food we eat – it’s madness!

Prior to World War Two, Labour politicians called Winston Churchill a “warmonger”.

Yet a Labour government took us into Iraq and Afghanistan, and ruined the British economy along the way. They just cannot be trusted.

‘England a green and pleasant land’.

Let’s hope future generations can voice these words with pride.

Please, please don’t let England become a profitable enterprise for the few and a romantic ruin for those (the majority) who care.
