The Government hasn't got any money!! It has spent it all over the years and we now have huge debts that will take many years to pay off from extra taxes on our incomes! There has to come a point where the government has to come clean and admit that it cannot afford to subsidise everyone who needs it. Of course they could abandon schemes such as the ID cards and some of the other hugely expensive computer systems that they are planning! We cannot spend money that we do not have!
