Politically puzzled
AT the same time as you highlighted a report on the dismally poor, and still declining, quality of life indicators in Redcar and Cleveland (D&S Times, May 7), we are hearing of significant gains for the Conservatives in the recent elections.
I am puzzled why after 11 years of Conservative government and several years of having Tory MPs and a Tory mayor, people in this region are still flocking to the Conservatives at the ballot box.
Andrew Welford, Scaling, Saltburn.
THE new Tory battle cry appears to be "Time for Change". Change from what?
In my 70-plus years nearly two thirds has been under a Tory government including the last 11 years.
