The government doesn't buy/lease the rolling stock the train service operating companies do.

Re: UK unemployment increases to 2.64m
I think I know how we can fix all this. we should all give up our wages for a week. or maybe even two. in this time banks will give us a week or even the two weeks free mortgage and councils the same with rent.
supermarkets should give us free food to keep us fed for that week or two. and fuel suppliers the same with free petrol.
how much would that clear the mess we're in?
would certifying Cameron insane even help?

Re: UK unemployment increases to 2.64m
Possibly slightly O/T, but I'm so pleased with myself at the moment I just don't care!
Hopefully soon I'll be able to do the coalition a little favour by reducing the unemployment figures by one (every little helps!  ), because today I've just completed - and passed! - an RTITB-accredited FLT course (counterbalance), and I was so chuffed that I'd managed it, I went home without a care in the world, in the middle of a snow blizzard, and was singing "Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow" on my way! 
I should mention in passing that I hate most Christmas songs, except that one about the spaceman calling (was it Chris de Burgh who did that one?).
Word of advice to anyone doing FLT: it helps enormously if you have driving experience, as two of the blokes doing the same course discovered. I don't, and that kept bringing me up short on steering in reverse - those controls are so sensitive, and I kept oversteering. But after a couple of practice runs, I cracked it!

Re: UK unemployment increases to 2.64m
In realistic terms Cameron and his puppets don't give a monkeys for the actual working class people of this country.
They are tearing the country to pieces, and at this time of year, people cannot spend money, hight street shops are closing, one shop today that my wife was in, she said the shop was empty of stock as the head office cannot bring in new stock as suppliers have run out.
This is what is happening, people can not longer afford to buy goods, it shocking and yet the puppets bring out these crazy ideas of giving money to daft idea like ' desperate families' plus in todays The Sun (Tory) states that Ken Clarke has scrapped £1.5 BILLION in fines. This is how mad the Puppets are.

Arthur thinks the government should do everything for everyone, while not paying too much tax, so he sees their influence in everything I guess.

Re: UK unemployment increases to 2.64m
Since the puppets have got in, how many cuts has ther been, how many businesses have gone down the plug hole, how many people have been made redundant - this is down to government cut backs,
Employment has gone up to the highest in 17 years.
Whose fault is that, or l do l live in cuckoo land.

Not sure if you do, but you probably have a holiday home there....
