In Cameron’s world it’s all the fault of the public sector‏

Madeleine Bunting writing in the Guardian berates the ‘extraordinarily incoherent speech’ of David Cameron in which he set out his thinking on public services. ‘Replace his frequent and dismissive references to the "big state" and think instead of thousands of teachers trying every day to tell children to share, and respect each other, thousands of nurses trying to care for the frightened and frail, or thousands of park keepers and street cleaners trying to create liveable environments. It is all their fault.’ http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2009/nov/12/david-cameron-conservativism-richard-layard-spirit-level
