    Duane Abbot Huffington Post 16.11.2011 :
    The last sentence quoted below says it all………. ”George Osborne is doggedly pursuing policies designed to appease bankers and the bond markets. But he is ignoring the need to grow the economy and provide jobs for our people. He has to be prepared to rethink his policies. Otherwise the disturbances this summer may be only a foretaste of what is to come from a generation this government seems to have abandoned” ……………and we have got older as well as younger people, especially in the north, desparately looking for work as well!!
