  • the public sector should all be sacked and forced to reapply for their jobs. at least 60% are not needed. we really must make a distinction between "nice to have" and "need to have".

    I agree. And the savings will make a dent in the national debt. Our government borrowing rates will fall, more savings. Confidence in our country. A stronger pound, lower inflation, more money for consumers, who do proper work. Yes there will be a short term benefits surge but it will do them good to be forced to get out there and find a real job... eventually.

    You need to put the Daily Mail down son, I fear for your sanity.

    Rather the Daily Mail than the Morning Star or SWP.
