Good news....

8 October 2012

Around £10bn is to be taken out of the Welfare Budget...  A good start but still not enough.

For far too long hard working taxpayers have been slammed by excessive taxation so it is time that those who do not work contributed to the deficit reduction.

It has always been a mad and crazy idea that you should tax hard working people and the more successful they are to tax them even more, to pay money to those too lazy or stupid to work.

State benefits should only be paid as a basic safety net, short term only in respect of unemployment.  

Can work but don't work then don't eat....  We cannot afford state scroungers or benefits paid to those who work either and I include Child Benefit in that at least for the third and subsequent child.

  It all makes sense now. Take only from those have not, give only to those that have much.
  
  Conservative Candidates should rightly shun any vote from all who are not proven to be among the chosen.

  Let the flattened cardboard boxes be stacked against the railway arch, and the broad-sheet duvets re-folded, have the warming-rats shooed out from the clogs of industry. As the homeless-hungry swarm to queue anew, to be chosen or no, by the whore-masters of a brave new - ultra modern - 17th century;Ye Goode Olde Daze!

  we really don't know where these savings will come from, just the soundbite to rally the party faithful today, a sum that large must include hitting low paid workers in some way, so recent history suggests that we will have howls of outrage leading to backtracking.
