with less red tape less state interference less state middle management the money gets to the front line easier
small businesses are allowed a little more help and are less hassled by endless red tape, this pays more to the treasury as the economy recovers
people are allowed ambition not enslaved to welfare dependency
people do not rely simply on social services and the state to care for their relatives for them, they do it themselves when possible,,,loving and caring for a family member is infinitely more effective than letting the state do it for you
and yes still getting support
i have found society to have gotten far meaner coler and less warm and compassionate under labours 13 year reign....they even perverted the meaning of the words and made it harder for everyone to help people. health and safety police red tape etc all made it harder to do common sense things to help people and catch criminals
frankly new labour frightened the hell out of....endless cover ups, kronyism, red tape loss of sovereignty
new labour fans like to pick out one bit of society in isolation ....but i like to look at the overall bigger picture
millions more jobs, more chance, more ambition, more productivity, more dreams more hope more money, more reward, less debts less poverty more funding from the improved well
heck even on new labours calling card , the nhs....the tories funded it more
final nail in new labours coffin.....they try to say they gave us the nhs, ok hats opff the neu bevan possibly the greatest briton ever. but 1) that was a different labour party who fought for the working people and built millions of social housing and 2) it was the liberals who actually created the welfare state, national insurance contributions, votes for working class people and women and taxed the rich....labour simply stole their identity years later
