Mr Osborne really isn't the chap to stop Brexit is he? FFS.

Didn't we have out of contol inflation at one point? I vaguely remember going into the shops, and you could peel back the price labels to reveal older-cheaper prices on sweets and then take them to the checkout. Not that I ever did such a thing, of course.

And who could forget this

And there was Bohemian Rhapsody.

That link should have come with a health warning.

And so should Bohemian Rhapsody.

My grandmother loved that song - not Bohemian Rhapsody - so I kind of have a soft spot for it.

So did my mother: I assume we're talking about the Inkspots version? I always loved Sandy Denny's version of it.

Yeah it's a bit of a worry isnt it. Our Harold was a clever politican with real gravitas. Osborne and Fat Dave really aren't in the same league.

This government seems stuffed with them - the vacuous nonentities of spite and bigotry - even the, so called, big beasts.

Say what you like about Blair and Brown (Obviously corrupt war criminal springs to mind with the former) but there were some really talented politicans in the first two terms. Mowlam, Cook, Short, Dewar in Scotland. Then the rot set in after Iraq.

Let me get this right, half the cabinet are saying that the treasury makes it up & we shouldn't believe them

Until after referendum that is

Quite.

There's an awful lot of careless talk that Labour should be saving up for use at a later date.

Allison Pearson estimates Brexit wd mean £1,000 loss for each household. Osborne points out that's a hell of a lot of money to low paid.

You see this is the problem - Osborne is the 'man' that didn't give a shit about the low paid losing far more than that from his tax credit cuts - and then, when that didn't work out for him, universal credit. Who could give credence to any faux sympathy he exudes now?

EU referendum poll:
Remain: 52% (+1)
Leave: 43% (-1)
(via ORB, phone)

Undecided coming well down now - most seem to be going to Remain as I suspected a few weeks back. Look at world economic situation and think "is now the right time to take the risk? Probably not".

Remain campaigners treat public like 'mere children', says Michael Gove

Says the man so recently in charge of our 'mere childrens' sodding education. The mask slips.
