But what about the half million public sector people who will be laid off ?? All they have to look forward to is this new "universal benefit" and being told that after taking their jobs away from them, the govt is now going to make sure they would be better off if they worked !

Ok I must be the only one, but I can't help feeling a bit sorry for him. The ones who should be in the dock over this are those that spent money we didn't have, surely? Not those who have been given the poisoned chalise of trying to sort it all out.

Whether or not it will work, who knows? Whether they should cut at a slower rate, maybe? I'm no economist, so have no idea. Even the economists don't seem to agree which way is best (confused smilie!)

Listening to the whole lot of them though is making my blood boil. They are smirking,argueing and jeering each other and appear quite happy to continue to score cheap political points. It somehow looks like they are laughing at us and the whole situation:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:. Very statesmanlike, NOT. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
