Russethouse Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 [quote user="Jazzer"]It's not just the champagne.Nobody begrusges him a glass-I don't mind one myself. All in all it's been a messy week for the party. On Sunday the split over Europe took over the columsns, and Boris changing his mind by the second.On Monday, in an interview with BBC tv, Cameron was asked if the new retirement age would apply to women, wriggled and said it was part of an ongoing revew. By lunchtime as if by magic they had a policy. Then the champagne,after being told by his chairman to avoid it like the plague..., Wednesday ther" General" affair when the Shadow Home Secretary was interviewed, he accused Labour of a publicity campagn, without realising that he had in fact joined the Tories. For a party ready to take the reins, a little shambolic.[/quote]Better to be a shambles out of government than a shambles in it, like the current lot.......

Jazzer Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Back to facts. the National Institue of Economic and Social Research , whose resarch Osbourne based his plans,say that he has misread their figures. His plan will be 3billion pounds short and take 5 more years than he says.David Blanchflower, respected economist and former member of the Bof E monetary committee(he unlike the Governor anticipated the recession) says that the shadow chancellor's plans have "the potential to push the UK economy into a death spiral" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
