Gary Mulvaney in Dunoon
Gary Mulvaney, Conservative candidate for Westminster addressing a recent
meeting in McColl's Hotel, Dunoon, highlighted the dangers the SNP pose
to the United Kingdom and called on Lib Dem voters to come home to the
Conservatives.
"The SNP have a single objective and that is to break up Britain, and Alex
Salmond and his nationalist MP's will seek to pick a fight with a British
government on every occasion. That won't do Argyll & Bute any favours and it
certainly will not help Scotland recover from Labour's recession"
Gary questioned what relevance the SNP would have in fixing Labour's
recession, how they would be able to tackle Britain's debt burden and what
contribution they would make in reforming the UK's welfare system.
"When the choice is between a Labour and Conservative government, the SNP
are simply not relevant to the British debate"
Gary also called on Lib Dem voters to back the Conservatives, to get Labour
out of Downing Street. He pointed out that Conservatives and Liberal
Democrats share views on progressive politics and liberal democracy. We are
against the ID cards, we believe in social justice and Iain Duncan Smith
has done sterling work in this area, and in David Cameron we have a leader
that personally committed to the climate change
agenda.
"For 23 years in Argyll & Bute, we have had a Lib Dem MP and been on the
political fringes. That's not good enough, we need to be at the heart of
British politics where influence matters. So if you're a Lib Dem voter
asking yourself how Argyll can get influence and which Government will
deliver on the things that matter to you I would ask you to get the change
you want and vote for David Cameron and the Conservatives"
