Can someone please tell me what the political parties are doing for the bog-standard family which works hard, struggles every month to pay bills, mortgage, health care and so on and is not on any form of benefit?
They always promise to give more money to asylum seekers, people on benefit, job seekers and people needing childcare.
It seems if you are not gay or from an ethnic minority you get nothing - only cutbacks in schools and long waiting lists at the hospitals.
We do not matter because we just "get on with it". Where is the candidate who will help us and allow us to get on?
