Advice To George Osborne and Gavin Williamson

@GavinWilliamson guys, I realise this is a jolly jape etc...but please remember that the country is fucked because of jolly japes like this. If you have the slightest consideration for your fellow citizens, stop showboating and act with integrity, dignity and courage!

May Exiles Osborne To The North

Labour Leave Want Boris as PM

The consequence of the "logic" of Labour Leave's argument coming to fruition is that Cameron and Osborne will go, and be replaced by Boris/Gove.

Is this really what they want?

57 Tory MPs Prove They Are Idiots

'The chancellor risks doing damage to UK economy through this political campaign.'

Like it or not if Brexit occurs and if it fucks up the economy, whoever is Chancellor at that time will be forced to make significant changes to spending and taxation policies.

Why do these 57 MPs not want to grasp that fundamentally obvious point?

Oh, hang on, because it blows apart their Brexit scenario of paradise regained!

Tories Do Labour a Solid

The Tories know that Labour have more or less committed electoral suicide by appointing Corbyn as leader.

As such, being big hearted and utterly selfless, the Tories have decided to do Labour a solid and self destruct by:

1 Totally screwing up the Budget.

2 Engineering the resignation of at least one senior cabinet minister.

3 Engage a public spat over the failings of the Prime Minister and his Chancellor.

Advice To George Osborne

It is not a "constitutional crisis".

You got the:

• communications, 
• bill, 
• timing, 
• implementation and,
• tactics wrong.

Sharpen up!

The Lords Are Revolting

The unelected elite overturn the wishes of the elected "not so elite", in order to protect those on low incomes.

How ironic!

Naughty Wee Georgie Porgie

Poor wee Georgie Porgie doesn't seem to be able to grasp the point that you have to pay extra to sit in Fist Class!

Beware The GIMP

Paul Waugh has tweeted the following:

"No.10 reveals Govt's answer to no growth: a new "Growth Implementation Committee". 

The sharp eyed amongst you will of course have realised that the acronym for this is "GIMP"!

Cameron Frets Over Legacy

It seems that David Cameron's days in office are numbered. That at least is the conclusion one must draw if the report in the Telegraph about Cameron fretting over his legacy is anything to go by:

"Cameron has started to wonder where his Government is going, and has been asking aides what his legacy will be."

As I noted the other day, the government is in office but it is most certainly not in power. The Telegraph agrees:

"Mr Cameron and Mr Osborne do not regard themselves as being in power, but instead believe they are trapped – by the opinion polls, by the Liberal Democrats, by the Civil Service, by the bond markets, or by all four."

Where to now for Cameron and Osborne?

Wherever the opinion polls lead and the LIEBOR scandal leads!
