Hugh, The article that l got the info from re Osborne was The DAILY STAR, page 2, of Boxing Day.

It states ' Treasury staff on six figure sums has DOUBLED in two years, the Home office has seen a 50% in seen increase in salaries in the Equalities office and all treasury staff earning more than £100.000 also rose in 2011/12 compared to to just 2009/10.

Yet the government is slashing funds for the police and benefits, isn't this a case of looking after the rich and all those pen pushers in Whitehall.

I have always said that cuts have to be made from the top, l would love to earn £100.000 a year for doing and 8/9 hour day.
The amazing thing is Hugh, Under Thatcher, she selected certain parts of this country, she crushed the miners for standing up for there rights, she nearly destroyed this country with the Poll Tax, NHS was nearly ruined.

Now under the Coalition, we have the whole scenario started all again - the Student riots (similar to the Poll Tax) the police are now being hit instead of the Miners and the NHS is being destroyed by closing A/E Hospitals wards are being closed - unemployment is high- does that ring a bell.

Do wee see any member of the Government losing there jobs - No.

Budgets cuts are destroying this country, it will come to a crunch, when next year we will see LESS police officers on the streets, police stations closing.

In the borough where my son works in Ealing, they are closing down the station there and everything is being moved to Southall or Acton and to make matters worse New Scotland Yard will be sold off, what government buildings are going - NONE.
