Actually Keith the lowest paid have been left alone. Read the details not just the headlines and particularly not Ed Balls' speech. If he believes what he said yesterday he is unfit for office.

# 28. The Facts..............Institute of Fiscal Studies confirm the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer.
100,000 more children will be in poverty.
All of Osbournes forecasts have been wide of the mark and wrong.
The excuses and blame, among others, have been the previous government ( nothing to do with the global financial
crisis ) snow,royal wedding eurozone.........................now we have the Hurrican`
We had a sales director who made ``Ossie ``type forecasts............we removed him after two years!!!!

the gap between the haves and have nots has been growing since world war 2, it is now at the highest point.

Reg - you do need to look beyond headlines and perhaps post in more than your own headlines to make sense.
Everyone with knowledge of these things know exactly the facts of the impact the Eurozone crisis is having on growth. I have explained many times the specific measures taken by Brown that made the UK recession a lot worse than it otherwise be. At least he was not alone in his financial incompetence, big spending, deficit spending governments are the root of the present crisis al;lied to the straightjacket of the Euro.
I have always said that big government is THE big problem we have.
Watch out for that financial hurricane.....

History tells us that in times such these what we get by way of distraction...WWIII anyone?
Perhaps, rather than recycling we should hoard our tin cans to be ready to construct another generation of Spitfires etc.
For even now we lie in wait for the Hurricane and have had our first wave of Kamikaze-Wednesdays.
Carousels, for instance (little wars*) may be the way forward. Unless, of course, we attempt to turn back; the clock and much else, in that case the word is, "Merry-Go-Round".

Ossie and Flashmans ill-concieved Autumn Statement will not only make Joe public pick up the heaviest slice of the bill,
Women will be losing Three times as much as Men!!!!!
Analysis shows women will contribute £ 13.2 billion and Men will contribute £ 5.7 billion.
Another Error of Judgement!!!!!!!
