I disagree Osem, it's not the politicians in denial, its the majority of the general public thats in denial. On the other hand the politicians are being pragmatic with the bad news.... If any politician, from any party can out and openly said tat the country was financially buggered, and we had to cut spending across the entire budget by 10/15/20%. That the cuts would include numerous public sector job losses, reduction in services, cuts to health provision and all sorts of other things, then that politician, and his party would be unelectable....

To steal a line from the film A Few Good Men.... "You can't handle the truth !"
