Now spending cuts are underway, same BoomTown Rats are grinding. Sir Bob Geldof awoke yesterday to find not one but ten Alps on the slide. Shares of TV production company, he founded fondue by close to a third party.

The reason? No global warming, but the decision to axe 10 million pounds per year of the Alps to teachers TV contract. You have to hand it to George and the boys. They are targeting a sense of humor.Has not been Sir Bob big star The Wall, Pink Floyd yawn-by-minute film famous line: "We do not need education"? Fort while it is for his fans, we have much unnecessary teachers TV either.

Indeed, if magically expenditure reductions may be restricted only to such things, we detect heard moins.Bien, there are more acute economic pain to come - since the end of universal children and cuts in tax relief for pension benefit already shown. However, is really was going to miss the Union modernisation Fund Supervisory Board, the Advisory Council on libraries or the Hearing Aid Council?

Cuts, unveiled Wednesday, go wrong. But the big question of the economy is combien.Le Government is already dropping advice will seek to minimize the impact on the "most vulnerable in society" and publicly - the country of Wales, Northeastern and Northern Ireland terribly dependent regions.

In addition, the word "cuts" is something mal.Darren Winder to Oriel Securities said yesterday, in nominal terms expenditure is positioned to achieve from ￡ 640bn in 2011-2012 ￡ 659bn in 2014 - 15 - adjustment for the Government, which represents a 83bn inflation expectations ￡ Coupe.

Even if, as the Centre for policy studies related to this week, back to the turn of the Millennium, the Government has been spent ￡ 343bn - a sum which would have increased from only ￡ 450bn in 2009-2010 if labour expenditures had simply associated inflation. In other words, even after "reductions", Great Britain still spend a genuine ￡ 200bn over 15 years draconian avant.Comment is it?

We are going to jobs in the sector public.Mais, spread over five years, reductions can reduce the growth of GDP by more than 0 5pc per year, which seems to be manageable.Not least when considering the health of British companies.UK plc was out of the recession, not with the traditional deficit, but a company - surplus profits after investment - from ￡ 67bn.

Despite cuts, companies have the firepower to invest and to hire staff.If it is sufficient to take over 500,000 public sector employment had predicted losses is a moot point.But Winder is far from being the one economist who is optimistic on this point.

A greater threat to the UK economy is a pet: more economic woes America .Presque 1 in 10 Americans are now work - a figure who is afraid of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke dropping great advice on additional flexibilities set quantitative .Lorsqu ' a new sailing for QE2 - thy-neighbour mendicant aka - dollar devaluation led us all is much more difficult to say.

It copies may not be best option either - Great Britain since, unlike in America, inflation here is more magical 3pc.Argent topping may raise interest rates élevés.Et hurt vraiment.Ou as Bob in the song: "" OH oh oh whoa whoa. ""
