LOL Reg, you do tell 'em.
'20,000 businesses went out of business through deepening spending cuts' well I never. Any business that is that reliant on public sector money is part of the public not private sector. It is called the 'secondary public sector'. Those who run these 'businesses' should have realised long ago that there were going to have to be cut-backs and should have diversified. The figure itself is very questionable, by the way. I hate the thought of any business going out of business but this is a fact of life and it always happens in a dynamic economy.
If you were really concerned about the plight of the private sector, on which we all depend, then you would be supporting some proper cuts to public spending instead of the half-hearted minimal so called cuts we are seeing now. The public sector burden carried by businesses must be dramatically reduced.

Defending Flashman and his team is becoming a Full time job.
On occasions it may damage crediblity.

Trying to find something to say then Reg so as not to reply to specific points raised. You may note that I am quite critical of the government in some respects, where it is deserved. Nevertheless they are light years ahead of your lot by way of competence and in most policy areas even where I disagree with them.

Policies are the most difficult to defend with credibiliy as there have been so many ill-conceived policies that have ended in ``U`` turns.
Error of judgement on so many occasions also damages credibilty.

Reg - you will know all about errors of judgement, your about government were expert in that and no government before them ever had so much direct experience.
