The thing that absolutely annoys me most
Is when polictians have to answer questions about why a certain area of public services are not performing as well as they should. Their answer is without fail, "Well we've spent £10bn in the last 4 years etc etc"

How are they not picked up on this? If I failed a project at work and tried to justify that falure by saying, "Well yes, it was an almighty cock up, but I did spend £300k on it", I would be fucking fired and rightly so.


More money does not automatically mean better results, Labour never understood this, and that is one key reason why, going into the recession we had borrowed up to our eyeballs to expand and fund the public sector (buying votes) rather than having a decent policy of economic expansoion that took advantage of the most favourable economic climate since the second world war.
