Votes and Taxes
This week's U-turn by the Conservatives on tax has at last opened up a clear policy gap between the parties on one of the central issues in any election: the Tories are now committed to reducing the tax burden, even if this means cuts in public spending, while Labour will pursue its public spending plans, even if this means increasing taxes.

This equates to around 137 healthy dogs being destroyed every day, either because their owners could not be traced or a new owner could not be found - a situation the NCDL finds totally unacceptable.

Three recent MORI surveys (for The Times, the News of the World and Schroder Salomon Smith Barney) have explored the scale of the task facing him, and some of the factors that will work for and against him.
