ALL public spending should be cut ‘except for the specific services I use’, the electorate has informed the government.
A consultation on how funding should be allocated has found non-parents want to close schools, the healthy want NHS cuts, unnecessary buildings used by strangers should be left to collapse and nobody sees the point of Wales.
Martin Bishop of York said: “This country is full of roads I don’t use going to places I have no intention of visiting. Why are my taxes paying for that?
“Times are hard so we cannot justify spending money on people I don’t know personally. I’ve made a list of deserving recipients, and so far it’s me, my mate Kev and the bloke who fixes my car.”
Joanna Kramer agreed: “I’ve never understood why there are quite so many schools when my children go to two or three at the most. And couldn’t we cut hospital waiting lists dramatically by removing all these randoms from them?
“Imagine a gleaming, empty A&E where the medical team calls me by name and has my notes already in hand as I’m ushered to a private room and my favourite chocolates wait by my bedside. That sounds like a better Britain. Let’s get that done.”
Rachel Reeves said: “There is the minor issue of that being entirely impossible. Though I note Nigel Farage has already promised it.”
