Gordon Brown and Nu-Labour.Re: The Cut Backs.
It's a fact that many Labour run councils are making redundancies and cuts to front line services out of political spite rather than necessity. They should hang their heads in shame. No-one has let down the working man more than Labour over the last thirteen years, most of them should be barred forever from running any official organisation that has an effect on people's livelihoods.....Re: The Cut Backs.
I have to disagree - Tory govt made a mess of things long before Labour got in, however, the problem today (in my opinion) with these cuts are some were just not necessary, the sections of the community they hit the most were bang out of order. If we were to cease these billions leaving the country and also concentrated on the tax dodgers and the bankers issues we may have found a much more considerate method of cuts. I totally disagree with what is happening to the poor, the aged and the ill.Re: The Cut Backs.
Councils of all political colours have become powerbase empires in their own right. They will protect their internal management structure (and it's attendant gravy train), their own contracting and other services which comprise their power base, before they will protect services such as elderly care, pothole repair, street litter problems and so on. It is the nature of the beast.Re: The Cut Backs.
Unless you are very rich beware the Chuckle Brothers agenda is not what it seems.Re: The Cut Backs.
Chuckle Brothers agenda - I like it Victor's Mate and yes, I agree, I suppose we should be afraid - very afraid. We are being told there is no alternative, but I believe that there may well be a hidden agenda. I am particularly afraid for our National Health Service and what is being pushed through in the name of "modernisation" pah! pah! pah! - creeping privatisation is more like it.
