UK DEBT – Myth, legend and reality.

Everyone is being conned regarding the scale of our economic problems.

All political parties and the media constantly talk about the debt and the debt reduction plan.

The austerity budget has been sitting in Whitehall for a considerable time and would always have been implemented regardless of who had won the recent general election. But even that plan will barely scratch the surface.

The media and the politicians talk about a deficit of £163 million pounds. They also talk about a budget plan to cut the debt by half in four years. THAT IS A LIE !

£163 billion is just THIS YEARS debt.

Their plan will only reduce the year on year debt to £85 billion by 2014.

The total outstanding debt is already £908 billion ( http://www.debtbombshell.com/ ) rising to £1375 billion by 2014.

That’s equivalent to £53,000 per tax payer.Imagine how long it will take the average person to save that.

Or imagine receiving a tax bill for that amount.

Just the interest on our debt for this year will be £43 billion. That's £1,900 for each and every household in the UK.

Remember this debt was largely created by bad practices in the Private financial services sector. All that has happened is that PLC debts have been transferred to Public Debt which will be addressed through 'Austerity Programs'.
