    Same as what? Same as what you said on this thread, or the same as what you said on the other thread, as they both differ.

    On the other thread, you state the public sector cuts will not be job cuts, because they will be done through natural wastage. I've quoted it and posted the thread, you can hardly argue different.

    On this thread, you have argued for 3 pages, that no matter how the job is removed, its a cut.

    So which stance are you now agreeing with, just so we can end this?

    On the other thread I said they would not be making 230,000 redundant as it will be natural wastage that would be unlikely to cause a 20% crash.
    (120,000 hasn't) When people stated the jobs are lost to people on the dole I never argued against it on that thread as they were correct?
    I still think these cuts are biting and the jobs are lost but not to the people who have left of their own free will. It will be the ones on the dole or being made redundant.
    Hard to understand?


    Tell you what Graham to save pages and pages of what part of my original post do you not like find incorrect. As I and many like me do not have a clue what your problem is with the points.

    PS What part of your argument is the same as the other thread graham? You have argued cuts are lost jobs then on this thread they arn't they are just jobs empty vacancies!!!
    Also you have argued 120,000 jobs lost are not biting but on the other thread you say it affects things further down the line?

    What ever you are arguing about on this thread you have said the opposite about on the other!

    Isn't that just hedging? He should go into investment banking.
