    Here is a little known fact relevant to how this discussion is going:

    Out of 350 Labour MPs only 5 have ever run a business. (source: Iain Dale's Diary)

    Peter Oborne points out that not a single member of the Cabinet has ever occupied a wealth creating job. (The Mail today)

    First of all lets define a wealth creating job.

    I would say it is one where someone uses and places at risk their own personal assets to build a business and through that, pay tax. In doing so they create directly or indirectly jobs for other people.

    That basically means that all the Cabinet and virtually all the Labour MPs have only ever been wealth consumers and have depended on other's wealth creating efforts or the taxes others pay for a living.

    They basically know nothing about what it takes to run a business and that explains clearly why they are following such insane economic policies. This is why businesses are burdened with so much tax and red tape and this is why the public sector is favoured in every aspect of policy against those who produce the wealth to pay their salaries.

    This is why they will not make cuts to the public sector and ease the burden on the private sector to enable it to power the economy out of recession.

    This is why the Labour Party are unfit to govern.

    It does not help for Labour supporters on this forum to trivialise the problems faced by the private sector and to ignore the problems that they face and the policies that will ease their burden. The solution to the problems of the UK economy is entirely with the private sector and this sector, particularly the undercapitalised small and medium sized businesses, need help. The burden of the public sector that is carried on the shoulders of the private sector must be lightened.

    To do this public spending must be cut. There is no other way to do it. This must not fall on the front line essential services such as the emergency services, the armed forces, nurses, doctors, teachers and schools. It must fall on those 'nice to have, not essential' jobs, it must fall on waste, it must fall on large projects like id cards, the Personal Account delivery authority and other big Government computer schemes. It must fall on the beaurocratic system and Governmental systems that interfere in all aspects of our lives and we should all expect to have to take responsibility for ourselves and our families.

    Basically the public sector gravy train must stop.
