You must know absolutely nothing about the NHS if you consider it a success.

Is it bullying if he vowed to never hire students who support Hitler? How is this different?

WFH is not here. There are still a ton of new and laid off developers who need jobs.

Sorry I don't seem to understand your argument. You're comparing the budgets in nominal terms without accounting for inflation. For example the $630 million this year won't be able to fund as many officers and services like the year prior due to inflation. Budgets are typically increased across the board to account for inflation.

Again, this does not account for inflation (6.2%)

The article he cites is from a June 24 bill that redirected $17 million from that police budget to violence prevention programs [1]

The budgets shouldn't be compared in nominal terms because of inflation (6.2%) and the increased costs of pensions (more police officers retiring). Your article also says that 18% of the budget is now allocated to the police as compared to prior year's 20% (not accounting for the $17 million redirection)

The article you posted is dated July 1st. The author's citation for the "defunding" bill was approved on June 24 [1], in which funds were redirected from the police to "violence prevention programs." Obviously both articles are talking about different things.
