Because to look after small business owners you have to **** over those who work in the public sector? Hmmmmm.

In fact if he was in any way business-minded, he would realise that more money in the pockets of any normal working person is money in the pockets of his own customers, and therefore good for his business .

He didn't say that public sector workers should be ****** over, did he? He said all Labour cared about was the public sector, which is not the same thing at all.
