And there you go again jambalaya, pretending that government austerity means something different to what it actually means. It does of course mean cutting public expenditure,
That’s really interesting, thanks Ernie
just for the sake of argument, could you tell us how much annual public expenditure has been cut since the last election?
Public sector current expenditure or total managed expenditure*, whichever you fancy…
You can even express it nominally or real terms, I’m happy with either 😀
“Total Managed Expenditure (TME), describes all forms of expenditure made by central government, local authorities and public enterprises. This includes in particular spending on social services and benefits, health provision, transport, education, defence, debt interest, housing, judicial and protective services and employment.”
