From: "Earl W", [EMAIL PROTECTED] Looks like I should email them back & ask them to answer the question!!! EW -----Original Message----- Sent: 23 January 2001 17:05 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Believing in Britain Is it not time an updated(?)version of the Bill Of Rights 1689 was introduced, in full, in particular stating unequivocally the rights of the individual in all forms. For as we see at the moment, those people who do not know of their historic rights have had the "New Labour" government walk all over them in a tyrannical fashion. I have always been a Conservatve voter, though unless something along these lines IE Stating Our rights, I & many other voters will withold our vote for any party which does not support these rights at the next Election Please consider this as there are literally millions of votes to be gained by a party that will support all the rights of the individual (that they were born with) Thanks Earl Williamson ============== Mr Hague has asked me to thank you for your recent e-mail and to reply on his behalf. He has carefully noted your comments. With the publication of Believing in Britain, we are taking the next step towards turning The Common Sense Revolution into a programme for Government, and your point is an important part or our manifesto. Britain has fantastic opportunities in the coming years. We could have prosperity on a scale unknown to any previous generation, with more people than ever before sharing in its benefits. We could have a healthier, better educated population than ever before in our history. We could have greater stability and stronger communities than for many years past. We could be a leading nation in a more peaceful, freer and more democratic world than it has ever been possible to achieve. The Conservative Party is ambitious for this country. We are determined that Britain will be first rate in every way. The key to a prosperous economy lies in keeping taxes down and reducing regulation and setting free the creative and hard working British people to succeed in the world economy. Opportunity has to be spread to all. Britain must be an open society in which success is possible for every hard working person whoever they are and wherever they come from. The key to a strong and stable society is to trust local communities and institutions. We must hand back power to the local school and to parents. We must hand power to patients and reduce day-to-day interference by politicians in the health service. We must encourage churches and voluntary bodies to help the vulnerable. We must support the struggling family trying to stick together. We must let local communities protect their own environment and identity. The Conservative Party wants to make Britain the best place in the world to do business - put our country at the head of those embracing the new economy, at the centre of a free trading world, make it a fitting home for all who want to get ahead, to create, to excel. We want to make Britain the best place in the world to live - rebuild our cities, reform our public services, revitalise our communities. We want to make Britain one of the most admired and respected countries in the world - help shape a new Europe, help shape a better world. Britain needs a Common Sense Revolution. The next Conservative government will concentrate on the right priorities, creating an enterprising society and quality public services. It will be a government that delivers more and taxes less. The next Conservative government will support the rule of law. The next Conservative government will defend the independence and integrity of our nation. The Conservative Party has listened and learnt. Now we want the chance to deliver. Thank you again for writing. Yours sincerely, Ian Philps Correspondence Secretary -- Oh well, as Jeff Cooper said, "Common sense is the faculty that tells us the Earth is flat." They haven't even read the question. Steve.
