As yet it hasn't happened, but don't let that stop scaremongering.
We all know it had to happen.
It had to happen to clean the mess the Labour party had left it in.
It says in your second link [iThe NHS may need to make more savings than has been planned for, health secretary Andrew Lansley has hinted.[/i
And its about time this happened. The amount of wasted that is wasted by spending it were it doesn't need spending is shameful.
All we can expect is the Labour party scaremongering from now on.
If they had done a good job, they would still be in power.
Do you really think if labour had still been in power, that no cuts backs and raising of tax wouldn't have happened?'"

It's Labour's job to oppose now, they are in opposition. What would you have them do? Let the Government do whatever they want? I don't recall the Tories being quite in opposition despite the fact that they 18 years in power to "sort it all out".
On the subject of VAT, of course revenue has to be raised, but do you consider VAT to be fair and equitable? i.e. will we all be affected in the same way?
