My father-in-law tells me a true story of when he was in the army. They were told to dig some big holes in a field. Next day they were told to move these holes to another corner of the field. The following day they were told to move them back. It was purely to keep everyone busy.
I'm always reminded of this story whenever I think of Labour's "initiatives", and the value the taxpayer gets from them.Comment
