A recent newspaper headline stated.. “The force may NOT be with you.”
This is an accurate description of the scenario which is fast approaching whereby budget cuts in the Police force will leave us vulnerable to an explosion of crime due to the recession.
What recession? The one where the effects have not really been felt yet. The media are dancing the Hokey Pokey. In (to recession), out (of recession), in , out, In, out, etc.
Local governments are to submit plans for a 25% cut in public spending, with a further study into the effects of a 40% cut. These will be implemented in the next U.K budget in Autumn. That means that we are going to lose some important services, The Police being one of them.
“Quantitative easing”, which is the creation of money from nothing, has so far cushioned our economy from the worst effects of living on the “never never” for too long, but we are due to be bitten on the backside, soon.
“But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal” Matt 6:20
“And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” Matt 10:28
And that’s what it’s all about.
