That’s 200,000 jobs in the private sector gone as Bloody Tuesday begins

Posted on

The National Housing Federation has predicted that forthcoming housing cuts will lead to the loss (or lack of creation) of 200,000 jobs, and to 350,000 people being added to housing waiting lists. If the housing budget is cut by a third, it predicts that 142,000 new affordable homes will not be built.

And that’s just one sector.

The slaughter that George Osborne will un leash on the UK economy today will have repercussions far bigger than that. And every one will be a personal tragedy.
