[Margaret Pilkington]

Maybe if they had not inherited such a financial mess it would not have been necessary.
We will never know what Labour would have done if they had managed to get back for another term of office so it is really all academic.

And yes, I do know that governments always blame the last incumbent for their woes....but I would hazard a guess that this government have got the worst deal in living memory....while in my living memory anyway.
Mancie we cannot get away from the facts that something has to be done to right the situation.......to cut the deficit.....and we know that there are people on benefits who could work, but won't get out of bed for anything less than they can get for doing nothing....and I resent them living on my earnings.....I do not resent those who have a justifiable reason for claiming benefits.......I resent money going out of this country to support polish children who do not even reside here.
You cannot have it all ways when there is nothing to pay for it.
