In fairness to Bliar he chucked billions at the NHS, unfortunately neither he or his government oversaw the way that the money was spent. I think that you will all find that the NHS itself is guilty of pillaging vast amounts of money, from the very pot that was supposed to make peoples lives better, by way of excessive salaries.
excessive salaries for who Doctors,Nurses or Administrators ?
It is the same as taxation; Every time that something goes wrong with the nations coffers, they scream for higher/more taxes! If the truth be known we have more than enough money generated through tax. Unfortunately what we do not have is accountability, neither will those at the top push for it, as they are all thieving out of the same pot.
If we paid attention to all the abuses of the UK tax system I'm sure there would be more in the pot
The sickness of this society was laid bare this week, when a police chief who is on something like 170k, expenses of 30k + two chauffeurs and numerous other perks, then declares he cannot make cuts. It was pointed out that his expenses and perks would have given him another two constables for a year. The country is being pillaged as we speak and that is why we are where we are - with no end in sight.
doubt it most proper police constable earn around £40k a year it's only the PCSO's who are cheaper maybe one extra constable
