As a Student, I was bombarded with Lib Dem literature, party workers and also the Lib Dem candidate for my vote with the words ''If the Tory party gets an overall majority the severe cuts will start in the first year, that VAT would go up and tuition fees would be more than doubled'', they went on, ''the only way to stop the cuts and vat and tuition fees increases was to vote Lib Dem because Labour had no chance of winning the election and if the Tories got no overall majority the lib dems would ensure they voted against those 3 things in parliament''.
I asked would they be sure to do so and I was told not only do they say it but they promise me, that if I vote for them those things would not be possible to be done if they had the chance to vote them down. On those words and assurances they got mine and millions of others votes.
They won my vote on false pretences and I feel that is a total disgrace,I was one of many students wooed for my vote like that and then also pensioners and other voters got the same lies, the Lib Dems were never going to win an election and not one opinion poll from the first week of the campaign said any party was going to get an overall majority,but you never heard the words from the Lib Dems and Clegg that if they had to join a coalition they would then 'not' be able to vote against those measures.
Angry,you bet I am, this was my first vote, I trusted the Lib Dems, they stabbed me in the back once they got my vote, they deserve all that's coming to them at the ballot box next time around.They are simply liars and deceivers and have no integrity or credibility left.
