Once
again George Osborne is showing just how out of touch he is with the rest of the
country.
By all reports, he plans on using the Budget this week to give tax breaks to
Tory party backers in the City. He is showing his true blue Tory colours -
hitting the most vulnerable and making the poorest sacrifice their wages so the
rich get a cut in their income tax.
He has run out of ideas so instead of creating jobs and kick-starting the
economy, he is pursuing a mono-policy of cuts and strangling economic growth.
The fight for the NHS reaches a crescendo this week with the Health and Social
Care Bill returning to the House and to an emergency debate in Parliament.
The future of the NHS hangs in the balance and UNISON is saying loud and clear
to MPs – 999 Answer the Call. Save the NHS.
