Nothing is quite as irritating—especially on Twitter—as a Tory supporter – stopping at nothing to defend the government's every action, and spending all of their time kissing David Cameron's arsehole.
Will the Tories cut unnecessary spending? Not fucking likely.
Just take a look at Foreign Aid.
The waste will go on. Tory? Labour? Lib Dem? It doesn't matter. The state is the state is the state.
In other news, this government's plans to change the benefits system may lead one incapacitated person to commit suicide.
Where are their priorities?

Millions of pounds of foreign aid earmarked for impoverished countries is being spent in Britain, it is revealed today.
Despite budget cuts in almost every other Whitehall department, the Department for International Development (DfID) was spared, and has announced £3million spending over the next three years to raise awareness of poorer nations.
In March last year, during the final days of the Labour government, the Department launched a scheme called Global Community Links (GCL) to raise awareness of third world countries.

Grants awarded under the scheme range from £1,000 to £10,000, and some of the projects funded by the the scheme include a malaria awareness workshop in Plymouth, and Afro-Cuban dance gala in Cambridge and an exhibition in Reading about epilepsy in Sierra Leone.

Before they left office, Labour laid a number of contractual IEDs, primed to blow up sooner or later. Last year, the SDSR revealed that the Government had to buy the two aircraft carriers – whether they were needed or not – lest the taxpayer lose even more money.
Now the Sunday Telegraph reveals that the coalition is powerless to stop money from Britain's overseas aid budget being spent on hosting coffee mornings and salsa dancing to "raise awareness" of poverty abroad.
Keen to scrap all such schemes, International Development Secretary Andrew Mitchell has found to his frustration that contracts signed by the Labour government cannot simply be scrapped, but need to be reviewed first. At least he has called for a halt to any further payments. Unfortunately, dismantling Labour's contractual IEDs is a time-consuming task.
Anon,same old ,same old story.
So tell me AngryTeen in your stateless society how will the incapacitated be taken care of, seen as that cut pisses you off so much?
Looks to me, from subsequent posts a bit like the incapacitated person had managed to organise some charity within their own community. If so, that would be exactly the sort of outcome one would hope for in a stateless society.
