IN response to the next general election and whoever we are going to get to run the country for the next five years.

It's hard to believe what the Tories have done to the services of this country, and I can't imagine what they will continue to do of they get back in power.

It is important to get the economy recovered and to improve export and business abroad.

But tell the people from Remploy who lost their jobs, the cuts to the council, the loss of libraries, the state of the NHS and the cramped schools and especially in Bolton, the immigration problems we encounter, in view of unemployment and accommodation and the provision of funding for language teaching to those who have settled in Bolton.

The streets around Great Lever are filthy, and there is rubbish everywhere which is obviously going to lead to vermin issues.

So if you want to continue in this trend, vote for the Tories, not saying the Labour party will be any better. But it is important to all to get out and vote and change this despicable trend that we have and could continue to have,
