Tories Pledge to Cut British Jobs and Infrastructure to “Save £6 Billion” — but Seek to Increase Foreign Aid to £13 Billion

The Tory party plans to reverse Labour’s National Insurance rate hike by cutting £6 billion of jobs and IT systems from the civil service — but simultaneously aims to increase the UK’s foreign aid budget to £13 billion every year.

According to the “plans” announced by Tory shadow chancellor George Osborne, thousands of civil service jobs will be cut and major IT projects would be axed under a Conservative regime.

The cutting of IT infrastructure will also lead to less work becoming available for British software and hardware contractors, making the Tory pledge into a double anti-British jobs assault.

The Conservatives have renewed their pledge to increase the foreign aid budget to £13 billion every year while at the same time “saving” £6 billion by reducing the number of jobs available to British people.

In addition, the Tories have promised to escalate the war in Afghanistan, which already costs the taxpayer £3 billion per year.

The Tories are also fully committed to continued membership of the European Union, which costs Britain £60.1 billion per year.

In the light of these figures, the £6 billion that Mr Osborne claims as some type of “election vote winner” is revealed to be nothing more than a disgraceful confidence trick.

The “cuts” proposed by Mr Osborne for British workers compares unfavourably with his own parliamentary expenses claims which show that he cashed in £21,532 in allowances for his second home in Rainow.

Mr Osborne claimed £18,360 on mortgage payments, a further £2,300 for food, £670 on cleaning bills and £202 under the heading of service and maintenance.

Only the British National Party has the simple and obvious answer to the budget deficit: cut all expenditure which is not in the interests of the British people.

These cuts will include the £13 billion paid out to the mass immigration racket, the £4 billion paid out to the asylum swindle, the £60 billion paid out to the EU each year, the £9 billion paid out on foreign aid, the £3 billion paid out on illegal and immoral foreign wars, and the untold billions paid out to subsidise the Tory/Labour fat cat banker friends.

Once these ongoing and ever-increasing expenditures are cut, it will be possible to reallocate the budgetary spend to reduce the deficit without cutting front-line services or jobs.
