After more than a decade of Labour governments, Britain was ready for a change. Unsurprisingly, without any clear leaders, the vote was split resulting in the current coalition government. And following the global economic meltdown, the fledgling government faced a monumental challenge. This was met with an inauspicious start focusing on 'The big society' which sounded like abdication of responsibility. We voted the government in to make changes; their initial response was to pass responsibility and ownership of this change to the public. And notably, this former defining concept has already faded to obscurity. And with good reason. Instead of focusing on strategies to implement necessary austerity measure in an equitable manner, the coalition have chosen to target health care, education, charity and public security to protect the wealth of the minority. And it has become all too clear that the imposed austerity measures were merely a strategy for oppression by class dominance.
Perhaps the goal of the coalition was social devolution? Protecting those who offer the least benefit to society at the expense of those who account for the most. And having cut funding to those with most ownership of 'The big society' (the general public) and by granting absolution to bankers, expats, tax exiles and tax evaders, the coalition appear determined to destroy Britain forever. If this continues, there will be no recovery from this incompetence within our lifetimes.
In addition to poor strategy, Cameron appears to be switching tact to no strategy, directing his energies to blaming Labour for all of the problems we face. After the duration of previous labour governments, this is wasted rhetoric to state the obvious. We voted for change. Apparently we got muppets. I've never seen a muppet with testicles. I've never seen a government that so desperately needed to grow a pair. If the coalition cannot man-up to the task of imposing difficult but necessary austerity measures in equal measure across society, or to accept ownership for the problems we face regardless of the source of blame, we are truly doomed.
Cameron and Clegg: Please God grow a pair and impose austerity measures with equanimity! Stand up to the wealthy minority to save what is left of Britain, or face the legacy of having ruined it forever. Or if this task is simply beyond you, then step aside for those who are!
