Someone who is against the proposed cuts made by the current British government; applies to all sections of society in disagreement with the plans.
Abbreviated form of 'sicosnipophobic'; which is, according to the mockumentary "Rock, Paper, Scissors: The Way of the Tosser", is someone afraid of scissors.
This short form is appealing because it is monosyllabic, as well as being homophonic and alliterative with its opposite, a 'snip'; ie. someone who is /for/ the cuts. The scissors analogy fits as it has become a symbol of the proposed cuts to the budget.

In addition to a misspelled error, "sic" can also be used in a more casual sense. In casual text, sic could be used to represent sarcasm, a purposeful opposite of what is meant. This can be used to subtley get an unimportant opinion across as a pretense to a more elaborate opinion.
While Arnold, Stephen, and Jean-Claude are very realistic sic representations of everyday heroes, I must counter that action movies shouldn't focus so hard on developing the main character, due to the average "hero's" lack of emotion and general acting talent.
