That's the only conclusion I can come to after reading today's PR spin and the Telegraph and Independent coverage.
The left-wing press are wrong about one thing, though. Dave's not interested in pushing the employed back to Victorian times. He's not interested in us at all. He doesn't seem to be interested in getting re-elected either, if the 'reforms' of legal aid and employment rights are anything to go by. We're galloping towards the tail-end of the 18th century for anyone who doesn't have the wherewithal to survive life's idiosyncracies, only this time we've got smartphones.
Still, we're stuck in a society where it's obvious that we and our children will need financial independence to do anything more than just exist, so what do we do about it?
Readers of my other blog will know I'm in favour of focused action rather than vague, disorganised tent-ins. In this case, it makes sense for those who are now even more worried about keeping their jobs to start looking at other options.
If you could run your own business in parallel with your current job, would you be interested?
If you could earn an extra income in exchange for about 10 hours of your time per week, would that be useful?
If you could slowly, but surely, build your business network into a productive team until you matched your current salary, would that help you?
If you want to know more about how I can help you, let me know.
