The Budget 2010
- Is It Fair?
The ConDems are facing
increased opposition from the UK public on their Budget they call
a Spending Review due entirely to their contempt for the British
Public.
IT WAS THE DISGUSTING SPECTACLE OF CONDEM MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT
LAUGHING AND CHEERING WHEN CUTS WERE ANNOUNCED WHICH WOULD AFFECT
THE POOREST PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY, WHICH OFFENDED THE BRITISH
PUBLIC.
The spending review was interrupted with shouts from the labour
opposition when they suggested that this is what the ConDems had
become MP’s for.
It was a sickening sight to see the ConDems showing their contempt
for the British Public on television to the whole world . The
British are a very reserved race, they can be pushed so far before
they snap. The ConDems are experiencing this with their confrontations
with the general public, particularly on Television, one MP explained
they didn’t cheer the cuts for the poorest, as the whole
world saw; they simply waited to the end of the speech, then cheered.
He obviously wasn’t paying attention during the cheering,
or perhaps he had selective deafness. If you have had children
you will know what “selective deafness is”.
I wonder if the 35 heads of the companies who were privy to the
spending review,a week before parliament saw it, were cheering
the cuts to the poor. Back in the old days, we had a parliament
which was responsible for running the country, now big businesses
through newspaper adverts, and the chancellor seeking their opinions
are the un-elected power. You can picture David Cameron standing
up in Westminster saying, ‘it’s not my fault Asda
told me to do it’
The Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg won his parliamentary seat by promising
to abolish University fees. He then sold the country and his party
out by committing his party to go back on their manifesto, and
charge unlimited fees.
Nick Clegg is now doing another ‘u’turn by saying
there should be a cap on university fees.
By selling his party out for a little bit of power, it was suggested
by political commentators that he would be remembered for sending
his party into oblivion. Well at present their popularity is at
a 20 year low, so he is living up to expectations.
The politicians are still trying to convince the country that
the spending cuts are fair, but they won’t say who they
are fair to, big business, the upper classes or the banks. Well
I think they mean the banks. They came out totally blameless.
The spending review placed a levy on them, something labour wouldn’t
do. They also placed a condition that the banks would try and
stop their clients from avoiding tax. The levy is 0.4% rising
to 0.7% of the balance sheet total. A banking association spokesperson
announced within hours, that the banks would have to increase
bank charges to pay for it, which is why Labour wouldn’t
do it..Well done the ConDems!
The ConDems are still blaming Labour for the deficit. The British
Public, which this government feel so much contempt for; have
figured out that it was the banks that caused it. The Condems
claim it was the highest deficit in living memory, RFT reported
on the 17th June 2010 that the O.B.R. confirmed that the budget
deficit was £23 bn lower that in the previous quarter, due
to the measures put in place by the labour party, so how could
it be the highest deficit.
Ian Duncan Smith the former Tory Leader, now the Work and Pensions
Secretary, suggested unemployed people in Merthyr Tydfil should
“get on a bus" to find work.
The former Tory leader claimed people were unaware they could
take a one-hour bus journey to Cardiff for work. Labour politicians
and unions said it echoed 1980s Tory minister Lord Tebbit's "get
on your bike" comments. "That generation of Conservatives
thought unemployment was the fault of the unemployed and with
every action and utterance from this Government, it is clear that
they are the true inheritors of that tradition.
George Osborne is expecting the private sector to generate jobs,
in order to reboot the economy. He points to the last quarter
figures available, June to August saying that 178,000 jobs were
created. What he doesn’t say is that 143,000 were only part
time jobs. Of the 35,000 full time jobs created in a quarter,
it will take, at that rate, 35 years to find full time jobs for
the 500,000 the government is laying off from the civil service.
Never mind anybody else.
