LETTER: Liberals are threatening to restrict civil liberties
It is interesting that a self-professed liberal is threatening to restrict civil liberties at a time when millions of public service workers and their families are challenging his Government’s proposals to massively cut their pensions and living standards in retirement.
But how are we judge the consistency of the proposal? Is he proposing to jail and sequester the funds of the bankers who clearly imposed serious damage to our economic and social fabric when they collapsed the economy across the world?

Hide AdIndeed, is he proposing this for his Government, who through £82 billion of cuts to our public services are imposing serious damage to millions, and our country’s economic and social fabric?
I think not, but increasingly the country would wish it.
