As a Labour voter I know the Conservatives are almost certainly going to be in government after the general election, not happy about it, but that’s politics. Created this site https://general-election-2010.co.uk/ as Conservatives in government again concerns me so much!
Since you plan to cut public spending as soon as you take power, how many public sector workers will this send to the unemployment line?
Have you factored into your planned savings the knock on effect of having less money flowing through the economy?
For example if your public sector cuts directly results in 100,000 public sector workers loosing their jobs, this must also result in further job losses in the private sector as those 100,000 can no longer pay their mortgage, pay private businesses to provide various services etc… How many more unemployed are we looking at and is it worth the savings?
Are you not concerned at a double dip recession if you start cutting spending sooner rather than later?
Everyone knows current Labour government spending that’s part of the economic stimulus package can not continue indefinitely, the question is when is it safe to cut the life life and start taking the economic pain that’s been to some degree delayed?
I made the above comment at as well. Will be interesting to see if it gets past moderation and if there’s any response.
