YouGov Poll:Public Service Cuts
Mon ,14/09/2009Interestingly a YouGov poll for the Sunday Times found that 60% of those polled wanted budgets cut to balance the books rather than more taxes.
After 12 years of being fleeced by the PLP that is hardly a surprise, though one would be correct to presume that these tax rises for once would probably not be by stealth. No, what I find far more interesting is something that is of no surprise to me.
The poll found that the majority of voters favour spending reductions over tax hikes, and David Cameron’s party is more trusted to deliver value for money. Whereas Labour were trusted by only 24% of those polled.
51% of those being counted described the Government’s actions as timid and cowardly over the Libya situation.
The overall findings were:
Conservative 41%
Labour 27%
Lib Dems 17%
Gordon, have you got the message yet?
