Earlier we bore witness to George Osbourne term criticisms of his ideologically-inspired cuts ‘ill-informed rubbish’. I couldn’t believe what I was watching: this pestilent little man, currently inflicting untold suffering on thousands of households, actually said ‘Now, those who defend the current benefit system are going to complain loudly. These vested interests always complain, with depressingly predictable outrage, about every change to a system which is failing… defending benefits that trap people in poverty and penalise work is defending the indefensible.” Can you believe this arrogant piece of shit? Those who defend the poorest in society have ‘depressingly predictable outrage’, and act out of self-interest. Those words filled me with rage: a millionaire accusing those who stand up for the poorest in society of self interest; speaking as if the justifiable outrage he has caused is no more than the whim of a few malcontents; insinuating that those who disagree with him do not understand. Have you ever heard such patronising, arrogant bullshit?

We who protest do understand – we understand far better than any toffee nosed tory. We understand the state s there to support people; we understand that, contrary to tory ideology, the benefits system does not trap people. That is an argument the right stole from the left: it is charities, which conservatives favour, which trap people. They have a vested interest in keeping people reliant on them, whereas the state needs people to be independent. Thus that argument is bull, usurped fro the left in order to justify lowering taxes. We also understand that we exist in society who should care for one another, instead of caring only for yourself. The able should help the less able, not hoard their money in a system based on greed and selfishness. Only then can everyone’s abilities be fostered.

So to see that arrogant asshole stand there and lamast those who care for thei fellow being and see these cuts for what they are as acting out of self interest fills me with rage. Surely someone so selfish, so arrogant, so ill-informed and so hypocritical has no right to hold public office. Sorry, to me such people are on a par with the very worst of humanity. Osbourne must go!
