Not to be missed. keithordinaryguy.org.uk/ Oh dear, the Malvern jobcentre is in trouble, their staff are being reprimanded for not sanctioning enough of their live load of jobless stock. Of course this is nonsense, just because there is hard evidence to the contrary MPs are quick to scotch facts with plausible deniability, or lies as us ordinary folk like to call them. Just as GP surgeries facing £1.5billion in cuts, in real terms, are, according to the Department of Health, having their funding increased. This is all of a piece with your own assurance to parliament in PMQs, regarding the bedroom tax, that, Obviously, what we have done is to exempt disabled people who need an extra room. And then theres your election pledge, Well cut the deficit, not the NHS. Facts are the new fiction and bare faced lies are the new truth. Sanctions are redemption and Iain Duncan Smith is the darling of the working class and we are not living in an Orwellian dystopia led by the least amongst us - you and your government. Your war on the poor is the Tory utopia and the slavery of workfare is the new freedom of full employment. The ‘Poor must learn to go without.’ cried Rupert Ponsonby, 7th Baron de Mauley. Er, go without what we havent already gone without before? I thought we had, historically, learnt to go without rather well. Clearly not. Or, as Freud put it, people who are poorer should be prepared to take the biggest risks as they have the least to lose. So there you have it, less is more. The redemption of the poor is to be found in the nobility of poverty, ungrateful bastards all. Dickens, Oliver Twist, said it all, Please, sir, I want some more. What! said the master at length, in a faint voice. Poor chap, nearly passed out. Oh the ingratitude of the poor, its unconscionable. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/bedroom-tax-prime-minister-david-2874744#ixzz2xiHqg4sw theguardian/society/2013/mar/25/jobcentre-newsletter-sanctions-targets mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/nhs-cuts-leaked-report-says-3338391#ixzz2xgMgai6M mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/bedroom-tax-prime-minister-david-2874744 theguardian/society/2011/dec/27/david-cameron-nhs-cuts scriptonitedaily/2013/08/08/poor-must-learn-to-go-without-says-errrupert-ponsonby-7th-baron-de-mauley/ theguardian/commentisfree/2012/nov/23/lord-freud-welfare-poor-risk charlesdickenspage/twist_more.html
