Cloud Cuckoo Land
I've just been watching PMQs on the iPlayer. I've never seen such a pathetic performance by Gordon Brown in all my life.
First he announced that the Government was going to increase spending by zero percent, then he told us it was Conservative policy to increase unemployment.
What planet is he on?
I'm not a financial expert but it's simple economics - the country is broke and the only way we can become solvent again is by making savings. Saving means reducing spending - cuts in simple terms. Hard decisions have to be made. In Government you can't please all of the people all of the time.
And it's not a question of the Conservatives looking after the interests of the wealthy minority. Ordinary people - you and me - will have to accept that we're going to be worse off as the country tries to regain its economic balance.
Gordon Brown bleating until he's blue in the face that he's going to increase public spending and buy the nation out of recession is disingenuous beyond belief.
The only way he could possibly increase spending is by borrowing more. As it stands at the moment Britain has more national debt than it has had since the Second World War.
Thank God he's only got a year left.
