So you're happy that thousands of civil servants and local authority workers are to be robbed of their livelihoods in order to pay off the huge debts brought upon us by the greed and criminal recklessness of highly-paid people in the financial sector? Those same people in the financial sector who are still being paid huge bonuses - some of those being individual bonuses which are more in one year than a local-authority clerk could make in a lifetime?

Not 'The Politics of Envy', John - more 'The Politics of Laying The Blame Where It Belongs And Punishing The Real Culprits Rather Than Shafting The Easy Targets', methinks.
