  A bit like the National Government: when they made promises prior to taking control they failed to take into account the reality they would find when they moved onto the premises! I agree that Labour screwed up big style - they burned out as all long term governments do, and their take on budget management may not tally with mine, and there will always be differences of opinion about priorities. So when the coalition moved in they found a few unexpected entries on the ledger. In this way I do not understand how anyone hoping to win this election locally can make hard and fast promises until checking the balances. I would like to see more discussion about issues and philosophies that indicate to me the direction that will be taken rather than specific promises tyhat will inevitably be if not broken, distorted. Because if that happens all that will result in is more name calling and bickering.
