Its a good political strategy, but isn't enough for me to give them a vote.
That's all fair enough, and I think your right about us not disagreeing on most things. But fiscal restraint is important to me, so who else am I going to vote for? None of the left wing parties are credible on that front either, imo, and the PCs are dynastic and complacent. By process of elimination, that leaves me at the Wild Rose.
