George Osborne Has Just Said

[sir.prize]

''We are all in this together''.

Do they still believe this?

Watching the budget speech is so embarrassing; the House is full of nodding, grinning and guffawing numpties, very reminiscent of the Muppet Show.

What he should have said was..'We're all in the Sh*t together' !
Which would make more sense

[Baldric]

Only an anagram away redman!

[steg]

Aye , some people will believe anything. ;)

[viv38]

Well said !

[jeffa]

Can there really be anyone left with a vote on 18 September who truly believes that this fleet of inept morons represents the best hope for their future...?

Osborne has smacked the smokers again. He usually says pack of 20 will rise by x pence.

This year he announced a pack of 20 will rise by 2% above inflation.

Was he afraid to say rise by 28p per pack of 20?

I have to say I noticed the same very point

as he gestured towards one of his wellfed Eton chums and
almost said - I dont want to be Chancellor - do you ? It's quite fun for a few years and then you get to be director on as many multi nationals as you like. Good Pension too

Ed Balls had a poor showing on the discussions after
