@bumpyboo: Sorry about what has happened to your mother.
Unfortunately even with what has happened, I still believe that the Tories are the best for the country as a whole. A lot of zero hour contracts are worked by students, a vast number of my friends are on them so they can get work experience, earn some money, but also so they can balance education, especially since it is ever harder to get jobs, especially since the labour's spell in charge, due to their promotion of less useful university subjects and less apprenticeships. Some focus on adult apprenticeships has helped many rise from unemployment, however I don't know much about the rest, I have been lucky enough to not have any friends or family struck by disability or similar cases. The other parties have policies that can put even more people into unemployment and worse. On the whole, the Labour and Conservative policies seem to be very similar, but some of the policies on the Labour ones are simply too unclear, like the budget balancing one, and banning 'exploitative' Zero hour contracts. The Liberal Democrats are too spineless, and the Greens live somewhere on the moon as their policies are pretty crazy and not backed up.
