Reaction to the Autumn Statement
Question: "When is a U turn not a U turn?" Answer: "When there's no effective opposition". George Osborne, and the Tory Party for that matter, are lucky so and so's - even jammy, as they used to say where I come from. The goings on in Parliament yesterday illustrate perfectly why the government can make itself virtuous by not doing what it said it would only a few weeks ago. Not only are Tax Credits safe for the time being (although how long we the tax payers should continue to subsidise employers is debatable); but also Police Budgets are to be protected, thanks to the £27bn the Chancellor has suddenly found from somewhere.
