Sir, – It is clear from the outset that political party manifestos and promises to the electorate mean nothing. Until a government is formed and an agreed programme for government with various parties concluded, no policy can be guaranteed to make it into the programme for government. Politicians can promise the sun, the moon and stars without any consequence. No wonder electorates are so cynical. – Yours, etc,
