Geoffrey Smith, in Times, writes that as you prepare to decide on election, Conservatives have one enormous advantage - they offer prospect of strong Government - and one particular handicap - you need an overall majority more than either of your rivals. John Floskyns , writing in the Times, offers four vignett-s of economic life in the 1960s and 1970s as many people seem to have for .qotten how the chaos of public policy during that period affected their lives. He looks at the fine tuning of the economy with expenditure plans being repeatedly altered between 1971-76; taxation and Healey's VAT increases; controls, including incomes policy, social contracts and price, dividend and exchange controls; and the problems with trade unions. Malcolm Rutherford in the FT examines Conservativism in advance of an election. He thinks there has been an excess of it, especially over M15 which was offering itself for reform.
