January 2014 Oxford Mail Sir the leader Ed Miliband is starting to sound like a scratched record with his endless repetitions of  "the cost of living crisis". The fact is that some of Labour`s policies are responsible for the  financial hardship felt by families. Firstly, Labour thought it was a good idea to deregulate the banks. The resultant banking crisis cost each and every family in the UK the princely sum of £40 000 to bailout the banks via their taxes according to the Audit Office. The gaffe prone  Ed Miliband recently wiped £500 million off taxpayer owned banks with his promise to break up the banks..   When the inept Ed Miliband tried to win over the electorate by freezing utillty bills , the investor lead energy market responded  immediately by raising fuel bills.  This rise could not have helped hard pressed families.  Recently Ed Miliband trumpeted a policy to reverse the 10p tax rate.  This unfair tax rate was  a policy he had once endorsed in 2007. So he now has reversed his own economic  policy!!! One might fairly conclude that the Labour leader may not be a wise choice for our economic security.
