True, but even as a British working parent, I think I'd vote to stick with it though. It's expensive to offer those benefits and Norway and France, say, are rocking 43.6% and 44.6% of GDP as tax revenues respectively versus our 39% and we already feel hard done by as it is ;-) (Now if we could cull the military to pay for more social benefits, fine, but that'll never happen..)
