Whichever political party you support, it is plain that there have to be some very tough decisions.

But this government have not cut spending and are not saving money ..borrowing has increased and is at a record high as well as the deficit.
I expect this will yet again be put down to the recklessness of the last government but the fact is we are putting people out of work and onto benefits ..to me that is not as you say a "tough decision" .. more like a inept and stupid economic policy.
To take the attitude that we are not as bad off as Spain or whoever is as simplistic as saying we are knackered but just look at the neighbours!
