George Osbourne today announcing £11.5 billion of cuts mainly focused on your local Government while also forcing through parliament
a Bill which authorises preparatory expenditure on a railway (HS2 - London's Train or the Private Sectors 1st Class Charter) without specifying further detail of the route and a limit on expenditure.
How austere is that?
Your local services are being cut to pay for a vanity project for London.

STOP PRESS a day after writing this the predicted expenditure on HS2 jumped by £10 billion (again!). Good austerity measures! Strange that it is almost how much your local government are losing....
