Why don't minorities vote Republican, is there a stigma of some sort attached to the Conservatives?

We Answered:

I have a neighbor who is a republican & he hates every minority. I actually live in area where white men are known to run off their mouths as if being white is all there is so when I see a republican who is black or Jewish or like Jindal, Indian, I can not understand how they could be a republican. The republicans I know are all about hating minorities. Now of course they act like they don't cause they need as many votes as they can get or they are out of power. So they are using minorities but I hope minorities are aware of how they are disrespected by these people.

What exactly is the difference between Labour and Conservative policies?

We Answered:

At the moment, not a lot, as both are vying for the attention of the middle ground and floating voters.

I know that traditionally Labour were seen as revolutionary, in so much as their attitudes towards change, wanting a major overhaul of the state and society, whereas the Conservatives resisted change. The extent of which this is still true is questionnable.

Despite the many similarities there are still massive policy differences, particularly over ID cards, taxes, Europe, the Iraq War.

Example: The Torys believe in patient and pupil 'passports' which would allow individuals to take money out of tax-payer funded institutions, most notably the NHS. Individuals would use it to buy services in the private sector, such as private hospitals or even a place in a private school. With healthcare specifically, the would 'top-up' the taxpayer contribution from their own funds.

This is different from New Labours policy, which does use private hospitals to try and clear backlogs of NHS operations, but does not advocate the use of private healthcare directly.

There are also some marginal differences in attitudes to policy on education. Labour wish to place prime focus on early learning, wheras the Conservatives focus more on discipline.

Labour have embraced markets, and the Torys have embraced gay marriage, and both are (currently at least) relentlessly campaigning for support in the middle ground, arguably by taking the 'third way' but there is still a lot for them to quarrel over: multiculturalism, Atlanticism versus Europe, Asbos and the virtues of prison. Also hunting, Iraq, asylum and immigration.

Main difference is, and most likely always will be, taxes.
