You keep telling us not to trust politicians yet you're just carrying their message of not being able to afford nice things anymore. I'm just going to ignore the not-thinly-veiled bigotry in your post as that's all it deserves.

If any of that bullshit was true, then it must have been a Christmas Miracle when Austerity PLC found £1bn to get the DUP into bed a couple of years ago.

That £1bn was obviously found behind the sofa because we were told that there was no money available for public services and they all needed to be cut for the greater good.

I wonder how far that £1bn would have gone in terms of funding the fire brigades and police in the UK? Could have at least upgraded the London ones to "second world" worthy, I reckon.
