It's already happening.
Slowly but surely it will go.
They have proved ... they can take your money and give it to the wealthiest ... they can take your pensions your benefits cut your wages remove your rights next they'll be taking peoples property and what happens ... we roll over and groan and the odd riot happens and people come on the internet and condemn those rioting or protesting.

Well realistically it's been happening almost since the inception of the NHS, dental treatment, prescriptions, eye tests etc, but it would be a brave government to axe free treatment completely. Even Maggie Thatcher didn't dare go that far, even if she wanted to.

This country is definitely going backwards Phil. In my opinion that is so not a good thing.

Many people are already like that Phil. For some people there is nothing left over after paying the bills.

I'm sure they won't Phil, doesn't matter who is in power, they promise the earth to get you to vote for them and as soon as they get in they do what the bloody hell they like.
