It doesn't matter - Social spending (NHS, Pensions, Care, Social security etc ) is forecast to rise to 45% of the UK budget by 2040 ish

The money has to come from somewhere and I'd guess the military will suffer as ever........... but that's only 2% of the whole - so either benefits (including pensions) are slashed or taxes go up... way up........
