Is this man Britain's answer to Joe the Plumber

Last night's Tory party political broadcast introduced the nation to Southport's very own Shane the Builder, from Southport.

Team Cameron filmed Shane Prescott and his wife and four children who has been running a siccessful building company for 20 years on the Lancashire coast.

Business has slowed down significantly in the last three months and he shows a list of all the employees that have been made redundant from his business.His van driver is stuck with a house whose price is plummeting and shops at Aldi now to save money.

The message was to the small business owner and the various measures that the Tories would introduce to help this sector.

According to the Liverpool Post

Mr Cameron’s aides said Mr Prescott had written to the party to explain his company’s plight.
