I am ambivalent about his ambiguous promises. So, it's bread & jam tomorrow.

Prime Minister David Cameron made several pledges if the Conservatives are re-elected during his speech at the party conference, the key points include:

a) Raising the personal tax allowance, the rate at which people start paying tax, to £12,500
b) Raising the threshold for the country's 40% rate of income tax from £41,900 to £50,000
c) Scrapping exclusive zero hours contracts
d) The UK would have the most competitive corporate tax rates in the G20
e) Protecting spending on the NHS for a further five years
f) Scrapping the Human Rights Act

I am so excited by the pledges made this week or should that be confused as I wonder who Bonnie & Clyde (David Cameron & George Osborne) will rob to pay for them ;-)

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"
