Roll Call of Dishonour 2 – MPs against EMA
In The News Thursday, January 20th, 2011
The news that 1 in 5 16-24 year olds in the UK is now without a job had no effect on the MPs who ganged up to scrap the Education Maintenance Allowance today.
Quite how these MPs can live with themselves is beyond us. So, just in case there is any confusion as to who voted for this, we’re posting their names in full. We’re also posting a Hansard link to the parliamentary debate so that you see what arguments MPs like this employ to clear their consciences.
We are especially amused/saddened by those who linked the scrapping of the EMA (£600million) with paying off the national debt (£900billion), which is like comparing the suspension of a kid’s weekly pocket money with the loss of an adult’s full-time salary.
