5: The problem of short/medium term cost minimisation in UK politics
There is a choice: deal with an instance of a problem or fix the dynamics which are causing the instance to occur. It's always cheaper in the short term to do the former, but almost never cheaper in the long run. This government doesn't think long term, it doesn't make the investments required to solve the dynamics that cause problems. I argue that this is a bad decision. UK Politics BlaBlaBla.
