Nurses or spin doctors

Isn't it funny that whenever the Conservatives talk about cutting waste in government, or lowering the tax burden Labour create the specter of nurses and teachers being thrown out on the streets. They never seem to use the example of PR execs having to look for a new job in the private sector.

Yet under Labour we have the perverse situation of nurses losing their jobs and wards being closed but the number of spin doctors trebling. It's a funny old world eh?
