You make the cuts
Discussion
So, how much can you save?
I cut £50.35bn without being too unreasonable (in my opinion)

Some interesting things here though - would privatising 10% of the roads and introducing road charging really raise £75bn?

The problem is you can't make cuts and reduces taxes. Stupid toy won't let me abolish the welfare state and return huge amounts of tax so people can make their own arrangements.
Its easy to cut welfare, the problem is what happens afterAre you to let thousands of children die of poverty?

Families with a low tax burden could look after their own children and could make their own provision for ill health and unemployment via friendly societies.

If welfare was pretty much shut off along with ohter cuts you would have lots of people with no income and unable to get a job due to a lack of skills - thats on top of job losses due to the general cuts we will be having anyway and the recession.
There are so many people so dependent on the welfare state now that without it some could literally not survive.

science grants are quite important for training people in order to maintain the economy as competitive globally in technical industries. e.g. chemistry contributes £500 billion to the UK.I say keep the police, use the military here if we need them to protect borders and slash pretty much everything else
