my very cut down thoughts are.

this is an agenda against the poor, particurly the unemployed poor. benefit cuts during a recession is not common sense as people cant be forced into jobs that dont exist, and in particular attacking those who cannot work due to ill circumstances.

cameron has outright lied claiming the richest are taking the biggest hit as % of income when published figures disagree. clearly he is assuming people will just take his word for it. What he means is richest workers pay more as a % than the poorest workers so basically the tories are discounting welfare claimants as people. Similiar to that they disregard the welfare buget a sa budget as the chancellor claimed the budget cuts were reduced by adding more to welfare cuts, he forgot welfare is a budget.

if we were in true financial crisis then things like the nhs we wouldnt be able to afford to ringfence. The fact we can shows they have overhyped the situation to push their agenda. We have an elitist government now.

one has to wonder how thatcher can get admitted for a week with flu, yet anyone else off the street would be laughed at for wanted a bed for flu. in my hospital people dont get admitted even after surgery.
