Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

George Osborne got the economics right. That's what has killed Labour
Labour's foxes have been killed in the most boring way imaginable: sensible economic policy
By Dan Hodges
5:00PM GMT 18 Mar 2015
As I wrote yesterday, George Osborne wasn’t interested in using this Budget to pull any rabbits from any hats. Instead, he used it to shoot Labour foxes.
The attack line that Tory cuts would take public spending back to levels not seen since the 1930s was neutralised. Public spending will now be cut to levels not seen since Gordon Brown was sticking pins into dolls of Tony Blair.
The line George Osborne had failed to meet his original deficit reduction target was neutralised. Debt will start falling as a share of GDP – though no one seems to be entirely sure how.
The line that we are witnessing a “southern recovery” was neutralised. The economy is growing faster in the north than it is in the south. Though whether voters in the north will fully absorb that news remains to be seen.

wish that had come from the mirror rather than the telegraph
it's very predictable and even if with some validity, its source taints it

Max,
If you believe Osborne you will believe anyone.
Check his figures.

Yes it's a huge total but nothing like the figure had Ballsup been in No 11, let's not forget he wanted to borrow more, as did Kitchen-ed.

Sometimes, I prefer them to the tories.
The present lot of tories are a party for disaster.

Is Dodgy Dave going to continue to chicken out of debate with Nigel and Ed?
Wonder why?

Fortunately for the UK George held the purse strings, not Ballsup. Thanks to G O's policies the UK is coming out of the mire that Labour had left us in.

Debate---I have no idea but he obviously has his reasons, why else would he not engage Ed whom he has continually out pointed.

Don't the tory party funders have a responsibility for the mess in 2006-2010?
