The post you are reporting:
The country is bust, we cannot afford to keep giving out cash .
Where do you think the money will come from to support mainly middleclass females mostly in public sector jobs .
Private sector employers will have taken steps to ensure they do not get trapped by this, by not employing females of berthing age ,or employing agency staff on short time contracts ,or self employment contracts .
You can puff and blow , but the fact are the facts, maternity wage payments ,big pensions ,and paying people to be of sick on full pay with the sniffles, is unaffordable to the taxpayers. And will have to stop just like in Greece ,
We have the biggest deficit in Europe ,we cannot afford to pay teacher 35k a year to sit at home Rattling out babies like a Gatling gun on steroids.
