Cuts Protest
Apparently there is a big anti-cuts protest going on in London today. I didn't think there was much point protesting because Labour bankrupted the country's finances, but after Libya I must say I have my doubts about the cuts because obviously someone in the Department of Defence found a few billion pounds in his trouser pocket a couple of weeks ago and exclaimed to his colleagues, "Well would you credit that!? I had enough money for another war in my back pocket all this time and I didn't even know about it! Thank God my wife didn't wash these!"

where you can see the total levels of public spending and the breakdown over time and function. It's pretty clear how much Labour over spent, but just as clear that spending is not being cut, it's being increased less quickly. Now as for where all the lolly is being spent, that' the real question.
