Granted they might be able to trim some of the backroom costs back but I cant see anything other than service cuts tbh |
Which is the worst kind of obfuscation. Whatever may or may not be happening to bus services, IDS's point stands: some people seem to think that the world owes them a living, and they need do no more than sit on their behinds and wait while everything is brought to them on a plate.
Stevenson should leave the Tory-bashing to the Parliamentary Labour Party, because that's their job. He should get on with his own job, which is protecting the interests of working people who are members of Unite, not trying to make out he's some sort of champion of idle dole-bludgers.
