Well said, Jimbob.
Many of us may not have thought of it that way and we can guarantee that those who champion the NHS, for example, will have many a groan in such circumstances.

It makes you wonder if all the austerity measures aren't for the present, perhaps they are preparing for the future?
Whatever it is doing, the austerity measures aren't reducing our debts.
There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music.

Must admit that the announcement of the referendum must have been made after carefully planning and costing,( if we should vote out), otherwise the option would never have arisen.
It was always stated that we could never leave the EU because it would cost us too much. Things have obviously changed somehow.

OT probably, but it just struck me, the words "Europe" and "Asylum" occurring in the same sentence, kind of says it, somehow..!! (Sorry mods!)
