How far does this coalition have to go down the plughole before realising that there nothing else we can give up.

We are always giving up something, so when there is nothing left, then will this coalition say, well thats it, we cannot take anymore.

Government spending is forecast to grow from £683 billion last year to £760 billion in 2015 - new definition of "giving something up" I hadn't come across before, Arthur.

Makes you glad we've got what we've got .Anybody whining about work schemes ,NHS and welfare reforms designed to save money and make the various depts more efficient need to have a look at that and start thinking themselves lucky because it won't take much to tip the scales so we end up on that track
