They have been there for awful reasons but those examples do not justify cutbacks, if anything they are an example of how important they are and the consequences of what happens if they are not there though either incompetence or cutbacks. Also they cannot be used as a barometer of the entire service.

I don't use those services but would gladly pay 1% more NI as opposed to cutting back on them. I understand that this is not necessary the choice in front of us but if the choice was smaller government, less tax, but no one to provides services for the disabled, people with learning difficulties, and such or bigger government, more tax, but the services remain then I will go the latter.
