Con-Dems declare class war by Ken Livingstone http://morningstaronline.co.uk/index.php/news/content/view/full/92305

If Labour or the trade unions had started a programme of redistribution based on fairer taxes for the richest, better pay, conditions and job prospects and better minimum standards for employees, then the right would be foaming at the mouth about class war. But we should be clear that what has opened up now really is class war.

Not from the trade unions or Labour, but by the government. The real aim is to cut the living standards of workers and the poor and to raise the living standards of high earners and the rich. Osborne's Budget was a full-blooded attack on the working poor, the disabled and those on benefits.
