Boris Johnson and the Tories break election promises again and again ...
A TOTAL LIAR
SOUTH OXHEY residents have been hit hard and left WORSE OFF after Boris Johnson broke election promises by raising taxes and cutting pensions.
At the 2019 General Election, Boris Johnson personally guaranteed no tax increases, said he‘d a plan to fund social care and the Tories vowed to keep the ‘triple lock’ on pensions to ensure the maximum increase each year.
WORTHLESS TORY PROMISES
Both manifesto commitments were ditched when he hiked up National Insurance by over 10% for workers and broke his word to Britain’s pensioners too.
"It’s clear that Boris Johnson had no plans to tackle the social care crisis as he claimed and people will still have to sell their homes to fund care. He hasn’t fixed it at all, it’s a right dog’s breakfast,” said Councillor Stephen King.

- The National Insurance increase hits the west paid the hardest and means that a retired millionaire in leafy Moor Park doesn’t pay an extra penny to help fund social care, but low-paid families living in South Oxhey will end up forking out over £1,000 a year more.
"It’s clear that Boris Johnson had no plans to tackle the social care crisis as he claimed and people will still have to sell their homes to fund care. He hasn’t fixed it at all, it’s a right dog’s breakfast,” said Councillor Stephen King.
- Pensioners have been denied the rise in the state pension they were promised as the government has refused to keep its word and increase it in line with wages this year.
- The Conservatives have also scrapped the £20 per week uplift to Universal Credit which has helped many working families here in South Oxhey. Unfortunately people who believed Boris Johnson and the Conservatives’ promises have been well and truly had. They always look after the rich, not people like us here in South Oxhey who work hard for a living. Many people have more than one job to make ends meet,” said Councillor Stephen King of Blairhead Drive.

THE local Labour team attended the ‘topping out’ ceremony for the latest phase of the South Oxhey redevelopment on 8 September.
Councillors went on the roof and saw the finishing touches put to the top of the building which will house the new Lidl supermarket which is expected to open by Christmas of next year.
The local Parish Council continues its preparations for this year’s festive fun-day on Saturday 4 December, in the new market square outside Nisa.
Chairperson Councillor Joan King said: ”We’re trying to get as may rides and stalls in as we can and get Christmas lights fixed to the new lampposts if we can bust all the red-tape in time.”
