but yet go on a spending spree of their own with QE
Quantitive Easing I think you mean. A spending spree by the tories?
Haardly I would have thought.
Labour initiated this method back in 2009 to try and stimulate growth and boost activity in the economy.
Isn't it imperative that this money gets to the high streets?
Thats what Alistar Darling said.
Are the banks lending? Is the dosh getting to the high streets?
Come on you Europhiles.
If you have paid your Class A National insurance for decades and you are not renting and have bought your own home you will get £71 a week from the dole office which after you have filled your petrol tank to look for work will leave you with nothing to pay for anything else..
However if you arrive as an immigrant into this country with no savings or accomodation or job the country will spend whatever it takes to put you and your family into rent free accomodation and pay for all your children..
The system is evil and unjust.
putting housing to one side a 21-65 year old single person[as an example] gets £71 a week to feed cloth pay the gas electric water phone tv and any other bills plus replace any household goods and buy household products and have a wail off a time on the change

Answer the question (he won't)
unemployment will continue rising, while we have ever increasing fuel costs, and while we continue to let jobs go abroad in order for carbon reduction results aka... Kyoto to continue.
We are not doing ourselves any favours, we need to start manufacturing our own things, and get people back to work.
