What cuts? You keep stating this today, now, on this thread.

Obscurely dragging some reference up to something you state I said at some undefined time isn't going to get the question answered.

What cuts?

Public sector pay freeze
124 sure start centres closed since election
£500 maternity grant limited to benefits claimants and first children
Removing aircraft from aircraft carriers

Poor Hamish.

Extremely poor.

What cuts are putting the country into recession?

I'm asking you because this is what you have stated. So you must know, rather than searching websites for lists of funding and grants.

So which off your lists are putting the country into recession? Is it:
A) The Conservatoire for Dance and Drama
Patterdale public toilets

Or maybe it's neither of those? Maybe it's actually the funding being pulled from the bright start nursery in London that's putting the country back into recession?

You are begining to look desperate. More than half of those are not cuts per se. They funding hasn't even arrived at the stablisments in many cases. Therefore it's not a cut. It's the loss of a grant. It's akin to me finding out I haven't won a contract. I haven't taken a cut in wages. I never had it in the first place.

Dear or dear.

HAMISH_MCTAVISH

And of course, that's only a partial list.

Cancellation of 4 billion pound Nimrod programme and scrapping of the aircraft, after 3.5 billion was already spent.

Cutting the harrier fleet.

Cuts to housing benefits, cuts to jobseekers allowance, cuts to child benefits, cuts to local government spending, cuts to public sector pensions, real terms cuts to public sector wages, etc etc etc.

What cuts Hamish?

What cuts are putting us back into recession?

You tell me. I stated it was lazy simply stating it's cuts that are putting us into recession. You have proved it was lazy by simply finding a wesbite with a list of grants and funding which is being axed, or looking to be axed....which happens continuously under every government.....and simply lazily copied and pasted it.

You are struggling here, It's obvious.
