So much sour thinking that has come out of the previous administration with Gordon Brown giving people what the country really did not have and so much spending we now see as a big waste of money. Rather than give people hope, the Social Democrats had a way of sapping at the roots of the British economy's vitality focusing the country on consumption rather than creative marketing, innovation and new job production in the technology sectors.
As Britain has slipped further down the league tables in technology innovation, it has registered a disappointing growth in real terms when one subtracts all the waste in property. Focusing on beer, gambling, and football the country has caused it's own slump and smashed the world records for dismal performance. The decline was obvious to all but the previous government.
A new effort to redirect the economy is badly needed, but it does not auger well that the potential for progress is being cut off at the knees with the pressure on the Lib Dems to abandon their push for further education and support of tuition at higher levels of achievement in education.
The backbone of long term economic growth is a sound and extensive education system growing from within and the Tories could be making their biggest mistake by not getting behind the push by the Lib Dems to strengthen and encourage the education base that Britain needs desperately.
It will be the students that make the future of Britain, but many will digress into real estate, dependency on large corporations and banking because that is becoming their only hope of ever owning a home. Worse still they might leave for education and employment elsewhere in Europe.
Why reinforce the mistake of Gordon Brown when the coalition government could give the youngsters a solid hope of a bright future.
Cut other stuff and give targeted support to tuition fees. David you should rethink the overall direction of the cuts. Don't work against creativity when that is where employment will come.
What do others think?

Will not time reveal the lasting importance of friends and mutual respect? Be kind to those who think well of you and those you know and try to add positive elements to your world. Promote peace in your heart and sunshine in the minds of those around you by your own good works. Elevate the level of discussion by thinking less of the issues and more of how you can reduce the tension of stress that arises with honest disagreement. Relax by breathing more deeply and consciously.
