Budget Blues

Summer time and the living is easy.......No its not. We have to put up with Boy George's budget full of tax increases - direct and indirect - and talk of  "cuts".  We shall not succeed in achieving the "cuts"  because as soon as enough people protest Dave and the schoolboys will back down.  Even if by some miracle we do what we say we are going to do we shall only be back we were in 2008 when government borrowing was already out of control.  Meanwhile we go on adding to our deficit by £1 billion a week.  Never mind. Dave is taking charge of the military operations above the skies in Libya so all will be well there and we can go ahead with scrapping warships.

Rear of the Year
Last year's winner was Fiona Bruce whom you may have seen introducing the "Antiques Roadshow".  This was in spite of my championing Harriet Harman who was also in the running.  No short list is yet available for this year but I am thinking of proposing Kate Middleton.  Her bum is well spoken of, but perhaps we should wait until the wedding is over before making a final decision.

Janet Daley in the Sunday Telegraph on taxation is worth reading.  Boy George will ignore her because he thinks he is soooooo clever.
