School buildings projects scrapped to save £5bn
Hundreds of new school building projects will be scrapped today, saving around £5 billion.The move, potentially the most controversial cut announced by the Coalition so far, comes as ministers prepare to scrap other projects including new roads and extra railway carriages.
Michael Gove, the Education Secretary, will today tell MPs that Labour’s Building Schools for the Future scheme is being wound down.
Well voted people

Alas pete, that is just the beginning.. Never mind they are hoping for Independant schools, paid for by the parents, and giving grants to fee paying schools.
Education for All ?? my Erse.
They’ll run it into the ground then in the 5th year give us some back in the hope of re election. This country is doomed, 48,000 less bobbies on the beat wasn’t it ?
Plus cutting all community projects, that actually do some good regards giving young adults a place to go and help with job seeking, and the first steps into the near defunct building trade. Be all money making firms now, I watched a documentary on one of them, yes they got the great unwashed into jobs, but they did not allow for no babysitters etc.
almost Dickensian !

Ah yes, socialism always works until other peoples money runs out, even then they just print some more, take a look at Zimbabwe to see what happens next.
Hopefully Labour will never ever get back into power to wreck the economy and push the country to the brink of bankruptcy economic imbeciles is about the kindest thing you can say about socialists.
In the meantime the rich get richer, the extra taxes are unimportant to them and the poor , well they’re poor they don’t matter.

Perhaps you’d better have a word with your socialist master then and explain to them the principle of not spending more than you earn.
13 years in power for Labour and like every Labour government before them they left higher unemployment and an economy in ruins. Yet still 30% of the population vote for them, suckers!
My socialist master ? Ah assumptions again
more than 30% in Scotland Kiddo,, and we still have to have Nick the Scab and Hug a hoodie Dave.. I pity the decent folks that voted Lib dem.. they have to watch through opened fingers, their leader going back on ALL his manifesto principles.
New Labour were FAR from Perfect.. But they looked after kids and the pensioners.
I am neither, But a long as i have a voice.. i can call you a Fudd..Viva La Socialiste :0)

UNTRUE… after Thatcher, councils barely recovered, and were just about getting there. She sold off all the council houses etc. meaning folks bought and played with Monopoly money, causing almost civil unrest and homelessness.. she privatised things that are now a shambles ! She sytematically carved up working class communities, especially in the stong mining towns of Yorkshire and FIFE. She attempted the abolision of the Trade Unions..
as long as ONE of us remain. there is power in the Union..
NO ONE WITH a CONSCIENCE ever voted Tory !
