I presume that you don't see any possibility of positive change under a tory government ... they are acting strictly according to their out-of-date, threadbare ideology. It isn't the time to slash and burn. Even a C grade economics student knows that a consumer economy cannot be successful without fully employed consumers earning a decent wage. Exporting jobs instead of manufactured goods ... doesn't work. Tories hate the poor ... on the other hand, they run an economy in such a way that the number of poor increases. It sometimes seems that the tories are down on the poor because the poor didn't have the foresight to be born with money.
