Leveller, let's get real for a moment. This country is in a mess. Yes cuts have to be made, we must reduce the debt. The Labour party, have all but destroyed this nation and its economy. Their legacy is one of record youth unemployment, millions of 'illegals' and a national debt far bigger than that of Greece. Partly thanks to them, England alone is now the third most densely populated nation on the planet; with South Korea and Bangladesh the only countries in a worse state.

Political expediency will prevent any government taking the tough measures that need to be enacted in the short term. I think the challenge will come in five to ten years when the structural deficits hit the western economies like a tsunami. The pain is going to be very real indeed as a public that have been bought by political parties have to be weaned off the teat.

Firstly there has to be a realisation that foreign arrivals MUST not receive any financial support in the UK, this would include health services, education and housing. The health system itself will need to rationalise back to preventative and primary care only, cosmetic and reproductive services are not necessities and should therefore be provided only by charities or private means. Unemployment benefits should only be paid to those that have worked and paid into the system, likewise with pensions. Slash the public sector back to essential services only.
