"First Pensions must be cut. First public pensions. To do this a careful campaign of demonizing public workers must be persued. Stories must be provided to journalists about 'gold plated' public pensions paid to 'lazy' teachers and over-paid doctors."

Incredible its already started;

Tam,

You are probably right about the police. But I think they need to be sure they are going to have a STRONG arm of the law to deal with unrest.

I'd agree with some of that, but I bet that in practice the police won't completely escape cuts in the UK at least.

The police (and, come to that defence) have done particularly well under Labour because they daren't be seen as 'soft' on these things. In practice, it's easier for the tories to crack the whip in these areas, just as it's easier for Labour to impose cuts on NHS, education, etc...
