Boy George announced today that there will be more and more austerity for years to come. So if you are not rich, expect the kicking to continue at least until 2019 when Georgie expects to balance the budget. And if Boy George's prediction today is as a bad as his prediction in 2010 to balance the books by 2015, austerity will probably last until the mid 2020s.

The independent Office of Budget Responsibility (OBR) which number crunches for the government has estimated that on the basis of Boy George and Call me Dave's cuts by 2019 "government's "consumption of goods and services - a rough proxy for day-to-day spending on public services and administration - will shrink to its smallest share of national income at least since 1948, when comparable National Accounts data are first available".

Now given the government expenditure during World War II was huge, it seems fair to assume from the above OBR estimate that it must be back to the 1930's at the very least that this lot is taking us.

And the growth that Ozzie is trumpeting today, the OBR points out is being fuelled by what it calls "the unexpected strength of private consumption" which has "largely come from lower saving, not higher income".

Not a rosy future for all of those that aren't rich then. All aboard for the Tory time machine to the past. Now where can I find a few kids to sweep chimneys as a business?

It makes it even more gulling now the vulnerable are having their benefits decimated so spank me harder Gideon can turn their "sponging" benefits into nice clean middle class rewards such as free school meals no matter how much mata and pata earn or a nice new boiler for that nice new house you just brought.

The Government's most senior adviser on food and health says life expectancy will go down for future generations due to life style. Yet the government are going to screw them. Pay more tax and NI for longer before getting a state pension. Really unfair. How can you plan for retirement when these cunts continually move the goal posts????

MEN - a rough guide

? Under 23s................................. can get state pension at 69, 70 or higher

? Aged between 23 and 35.......................can get state pension at 68 or 69*

Aged between 36 and 46.......................can get state pension at 67 or 68*

Aged between 46 and 50....................... can get state pension at 67*

Aged between 51 and 53........................can get state pension at 66 or 67 (rise to 67 brought in between 2026-2028)

? Aged between 54 and 60........................can get state pension at 66

? Older than 60......................can get state pension at 65**

Well if "Boy George" as you call him and the government stupidly continue to threaten nothing but austerity for years to come they'll be kicked out at the next election and that will be Karma (Chameleon).

"Really unfair. How can you plan for retirement when these cunts continually move the goal posts????"

The government's idea is that you die before or soon after you reach pensionable age, so the government don't have to pay you any pension at all. Simples.

But first they want the internet

And if Balls Deep gets in we'll be in the stone age. And now for 10 paragraphs of pseudo leftie babbling by DJ on why he is right and the rest of us are too thick to understand him.

"And if Balls Deep gets in we'll be in the stone age."

I bow to your superior knowledge and logic !wink!

Just get a private pension - put into that and fuck the government.

Retire when you want

Faith in a private pension? They've been royally screwing over loads of their customers.
