Introducing Chris Ford
My friend Chris Ford is running in Dunedin South for the Alliance, and it's good to have someone of his calibre on the same ticket in Dunedin. He is also number twelve on the Alliance Party list.

Here is a letter of his published in the Otago Daily Times yesterday:

The downgrading of our health and aged care services continues under Labour. First it was the denial of $2.2 million to the Montecillo War Veterans Home. Second, it was the effective privatisation of the District Health Board's laboratory services. Now it is the plan to close Otago's 66 so called 'old-fashioned' dental school clinics. Where will it end? National cries crocodile tears over the downgrading of health and aged care services. Will their tax cuts for the rich help anything - the answer is no. And nor will Labour's indifference and inaction over health, especially when there are budget surpluses.
