Boost the UK Economy

The UK economy has taken a hit lately. I was particularly pleased when there was an "announcement" of a £5 billion injection fund to bolster our economy, only to find out the next morning that it was a rumour and nothing was even said about investing into the UK. It is blatantly, and plainly obvious where we are heading, graduates are unable to find jobs, those who lost there jobs in the recessions are taking the only jobs on the market, and overall, there is a shortening of jobs. All whilst we spend on countries abroad and spend stupid amounts on "art projects" which cost councils £500,000, bleeding erks me, it's ridiculous. 

My opinion is that we should be looking to start manufacturing more goods within the UK, it's obvious that labour abroad is extremely cheap, which is why the initial investment that the government should put in the UK should subsidise manufacturing in technology goods. As we build up our knowledge in manufacturing these goods and are able to bring down the costs as more contracts are awarded by both UK and US firms (whom outsource to china way too much) our economy will hopefully start to stabilise, we'll have more jobs, less youth running riot, it will be more stabilised and we'll bring back the pride in "made in britain" how often do you hear that nowadays?

We are a knowledge economy, thats true, but that does not mean we should throw away manufacturing and give our money to other countries, we have an opportunity here in the UK, we have unemployed people that are willing to get trained up and go into manufacturing, and sure as hell we'll have companies that would outsource the manufacturing to British firms, there is so much outsource to China, India, Pakistan, nowadays, that's where the british pound is going. 

Lets hope we can see British manufacturing come back.
