Start of a new era

[Doggy Styles]

Christ, are you really this dumb?

Of course every chancellor (Which is all I'm talking about btw) is inexperienced at being a chancellor. But you'd like to think maybe they'd make up for it by having been in politics for a long time, maybe even have, like you know, been a government minister in the past (Plenty of tories to choose from so far), or alternatively had actually managed a business/knew the private sector etc or worked their way up through the ranks (Based on ability, not your best mate liking you).

Then they get a crack. FFS the guy has less experience in politics than most of us have in IT, never mind the job he's now got.

In 2009 Osborne was the only politician in a senior position at the party conferences to tell voters the truth about the deficit and its future effects, and that his party's most important job, if they won the election, was to reduce it and why. None of the experienced politicians would say it, but he did, and what's more it was his idea to do it. If he hadn't, this election would have again been about who could conjure the most money out of thin air.

If you want the same old sh*t in charge, you get it. Thankfully we've turfed a lot of it out of government, and some new faces with new ideas (such as balancing the books!) are having a go.

Experience is a great quality, but sometimes it is the wrong kind, and its not as important as doing the right thing.
