It is essential that public sector liabilities are fully open and transparent. All too often companies contracted to do PFI work do not fulfill their contractual obligations. Many schools up and down the country are in serious difficulties because companies won’t finish off the work they should do.

You can find more information, including a policy motion passed at our Conference in 2004 and a speech by Matthew Taylor on our main party website.

I have only voted for your party when I vote in the General Election. Although I still continue to agree with many of your policies such as the Uk’s foreign entanglements being based at least on poor intelligence and at worse being a part of rich and powerful countries trying to garner the world’s most important resources ie oil, with the first oi war being fought over the falklands and now in the 21st century having troops in Iraq (second biggest oil producer) and Afganistan (where important pipelines can be placed which bypass Iran and Russia.

I also welcome your stance on tution fees and feel this is distorting the housing market and the economy generally. Whilst I wholeheartedly agree with this I fail to understand as a former student member of your party and now a Tutor in college of Accountancy, Economics and Business Studies why your party endorses PPFI’s which is in effect creative accountancy as it is borrowing by the back door and quite expensive too.

I could vote Lib dem, Green (which reject PPFI’s) or even Tory as their new leader has made many bold statements. Thank you.
