Over 600,000 people are out of work and no one seems to mind. Up to half a million people are without a proper home. In the so-called Welfare State many thousands of disabled people get no help.

Inefficient monopolies pass on their price increases to the consumer. The Hospital service is grossly overstrained because junior doctors and nurses are so badly paid.
