Can I just state for the record that I find the use of the phrase "Social Cleansing" totally abhorrent, and Jon Cruddas should know better (and I think he does) than to use a term that most people immediately connect to "Ethnic Cleansing" - it's a very cheap emotive shot, and below the standards I thought Jon Cruddas had.
Yes there's been quite a lot of that sort of language emanting from various opposition MPs and union leaders lately. I don't suppose they could just be trying to stir up trouble to suit their own agenda though.....
