How come the government has found a load more money to bail out the banks? The Treasury must have a stupendous amount of sofa's and Alastair Darling must be an international standard rummager to gather so much together from down the back of the aforementioned furniture items.
This money couldn't have existed for the NHS (e.g. paying for life-extending drugs, prostate cancer screening etc) or to provide more public toilets, improve the mental health provision of local councils. Obviously it couldn't have existed otherwise it would have spent on these things and a whole lot more besides.
So where did it come from then (apart from down the back of the chancellor's sofa)?
