Across the spectrum, people will find themselves worse off. For those in the PAYE sector, taxes will rise, there will be significant increases in the prices of cigarettes, alcohol and fuel in the coming months, inflation will rise and borrowing will go up. Road building projects are to be shelved, schools building projects will be put on hold indefinitely and health spending will be reduced to dangerously low levels. Where are the 200,000 medical cards that were promised to the less well off? What will happen to public sector benchmarking? The people were duped at the last election; trust has been broken and the inevitable consequences will follow.
