British Economy
Posted: 21 Oct 2010 8:17
81 Billion UK Pounds cuts in public spending.
over 490,000 public sector jobs to go.
No state pension for men or woman before the age of 66.
And you wonder why I feel I have to sell the Challenger.
My wife and I could both be affected by this. But I think our particular jobs will be secure even if we will not get any pay rises for at least 4 years.
I can see there being a lot of "unrest" in this country. Certainly crime will shoot up because there will be fewer Police, more unemployed, cuts to unemployment benefit, and fewer prison places so only the most serious offenders will get locked up. It will be like the Thatcher years all over again.
