Austerity at home

Douglas Carswell's talking some common sense.
£12.5 Billion to prop up the Euro.

£1 Billion on a half-hearted intervention in Libya.

A 70 percent hike in our net EU budget contribution this year alone.

An overseas aid budget ring-fenced, with large sums for Pakistan.

It looks to me like austerity only seems to apply at home.
