A good article. Don’t like the use of ‘London’ to mean parliament though. It might be based there but it is not London that metes these punishments out, but the Conservative party. Some councils have seen cuts greater than 50% since 2010.

Yes and especially the more apt metonym would be Westminster but this is the damage done by the tories

'Meltdown' from
@WellRedFIlms looks at the ultimate outcome of austerity for the UK and the rest of the world.

'The political architecture of Britain insulates those imposing austerity from the wrath of those on the receiving end. London makes aggregate cuts, while leaving to local politicians the messy work of allocating the pain.' 'We're all occupied by London.'https://vimeo.com/169678148

The fact that the NYT charges people to read online content doesn't help matters much either.

And they throw in a Tolled crossing into the mix, collecting toll tax and fines that have been ruled unenforceable, putting further strain on the

When we have vulnerable people on the streets because of it, yes. Yes it is. The Tories are completely responsible.

Rates going up year on year and less money spent on schools, roads, tourism, hospitals, infrastructure, police etc. Where is the money going? Politicians can’t even agree on policies anymore, Britain is sliding into an abyss and before long it will be unrecoverable.

On top of that, take into account the Brexit and you have a gloomy future for the Brits.

Whereas Ireland who were nearly destroyed by the same recession is once again a growing economy! I wonder what the difference is!? (HINT: Brexit)
-
If the EU is so magical where was this wonderful growth before Brexit and what explanation do you have for EU members like Greece, Spain or Italy who have gone to shit? Brexit happened because of the economy, not the other way around.
-
the economy gave a bunch of fantasist nationalists an opportunity, and they're using it to drive the rest of us over the Brexit cliff
-
There's no cliff. England will do much better outside the EU's regulation. As will countries like Italy or Greece that have been suffocating under it.
-
Utter Rubbish

Explain how it's a cliff.

catastrophic Job losses from Firms based here for single market access, new trade deals with external countries being worse than any we can get from inside the EU, reduction in banking sector, collapse of just in time manufacturing with border paperwork taken together
-
Where are you getting all this nonsense from? 1. Name 1 firm that MUST leave cause of Brexit. 2. The EU is a ceiling on Britain's trade deal potential. 3. Why would banking sector reduce? 4. Paperwork will be an obstacle but "collapse" is pure hysteria.
