There is one sector of society that has been exempt from cuts. No matter how wealthy they are, free bus passes, free tv licences, generous pensions - will we get all this ?? Trouble is they all vote Tory.

Here's a suggestion, instead of cutting why not increase tax receipts by getting some growth going ?

Another suggestion, sack George...
even IDS has mentioned the special "pensioners" group shouldn't be untouchable. The problem is they are the group keeping the tories in power.

Agreed
national voting count doesnt mean much in FPTP.
