Councils are considering raising Council tax to fill the cuts in budgets.
Transport fares are threatening to rise 40% in the next 3-4 years
So far I reckon all of the announcements will cost the man on the street about 1500-2000 a year extra in tax at least.
Wait till the budget this month and you will see this rise even more.
Expect huge strikes in the next 6 months along with the strikes in Europe.
The Unions are just waiting for the budget to hit the new government hard.
More families will lose their homes
More families will be poor
More suicides
More alcoholism
More Heart attacks
But none of this will have been the governments fault both past and current!!
In the middle is the cost of the Olympics and this will come to about STG 20bln at the end, when it started off at STG 2.5bln !!
Tickets costs will prohibit the games being sold out and most games will be half to almost empty, partly in protest and mainly because people can't afford it.
