The electrical current United Kingdom of Great Britain as well as Northern Ireland of Britain as well as Northern Republic of Ireland authorities has pursued v years of austerity measures equally it tries to instruct the country's deficit nether control. One of these measures has been to drastically cutting welfare payments.
The Financial Times has used information compiled yesteryear the Centre for Regional Economic as well as Social Research at Sheffield Hallam University, mensuration the impact of authorities welfare cuts on private local authorities, as well as created an Austerity Audit Map of England, Scotland & Wales.
The map provides a choropleth stance of the impact of the welfare cuts on each local authority. If y'all select an expanse on the map y'all tin stance the annual impact on each working adult inwards the region. This is shown yesteryear the average break of pounds taken out of the local economic scheme per working adult.
While looking at the FT's Austerity Map it occurred to me that the to the lowest degree affected areas looked suspiciously similar a map of the ruling Conservative party's electrical current constituencies. Bet2015 has a overnice map showing the electrical current seats of the political parties inwards the UK, as well as then it is tardily to brand a comparing betwixt the 2 maps.
Is seems obvious when looking at the 2 maps placed side-by-side that the acquaint authorities inwards the United Kingdom of Great Britain as well as Northern Ireland of Britain as well as Northern Republic of Ireland has implemented austerity measures that lead keep (perhaps coincidentally) had far less economical impact on supporters of their ain voters.
