I don't disagree that there should be cuts, but they need to be smaller with important areas such as the NHS and education ringfenced. Also the government should look for revenue from elsewhere, such as income tax for the super rich. Osborne has given no good explanation for why he refuses to do this, because he would prefer to wage his ideological war on the public sector.
