Lovely, billions wasted, billions more to be wasted...erm, how does that save money or make welfare cuts ethical?

  • "Austerity" has been nothing but an excuse for right wing elites to adopt failed ideology so as to punish the underlasses. Theres no shread of evidance to show it helps, and ireperable harm is done to many as they try. There was one single paper that showed advantages to the policy... which just last yearwas found to be so riddled with flaws, bad math, cherry picked data, strained interpretations, that it could have been used to win the one ring from Gollum.

    Osborne has one move, cut.

    What is worse though is that Labour are silent on the matter, and the lib dems even worse.

    I feel so scared, so weak so powerless about all thsi I had to stop watching the news, I mean they can demonise me and those like me in the press day on day without being chalenged, can destroy my life with a stroke of a pen and, we can do, what exactly?
