Am I? I am not blinkered to the fact that these figures have been massaged, I don't believe for a minute 2 million jobs have been created, this does not take into account those on work programmes, apprenticeships, welfare sanctions, further education these are all taken from job seekers it does not follow that they are in work.
The 0hrs minimum wage contracts ensure that those on them don't earn enough to pay tax, so even if they are working it's not contributing anything in fact they have to lean further on the state to top up wages with tax credits.
The only reason the NHS is being bolstered is to make it more attractive to buyers, he pledged £350 million for primary care... nobody even thought to ask him where that is coming from, he is just plucking figures and amounts from the air and somehow never gets pinned down to justify these.
That's why I don't believe a word.
