THE FUTURE

My daughter is a very talented film student, just about to start her final degree year (http://www.amezzeray.com/).  She called me today to have a "rant" about some news she had heard about our lovely government.

Mr Jeremy Hunt (yes I said Hunt) MP, Culture, Media and Sports Minister, has announced that the British Film Council no longer exists.  Way back in 2000, Labour started this to kick start the British Film Industry.  Currently, this organisation gets £15m investment off the government.  They employ 75 people. 



Bend it Like Beckham was one of the films supported

There is a huge list of cuts that the government are making.  How long will it be before we start asking where all these "savings" are going?  Where is all this extra money going to be spent?  Obviously, they (Dave and Nick) are going to tell us "paying off Labours debt"..... but they can only blame Labour for so long.  Everything that they do, they blame Labour for.....  sorry, we always tell our children not to blame anyone else for our own actions.... me thinks this is all double standards.
