I just saw a bit of Cameron giving Brown a bit of a kicking. It's the most miserable I've ever seen Brown, and that's saying something.

It is quite something that the current bunch of clowns has reduced parliament to being mere entertainment.

Lots of new departments and committees being set up - more civil servants.

That just means more painful cuts when the 'Call me Dave' party take over and have to try and balance the books. That way, NewOldLabour can accuse the tories of pushing up unemployment.

The whole speech looks like it was put together by the Daily Mail to deliberately upset 'middle England'

Quite possibly it is that everyone knows the whole country is ****ed and there's nothing you, me, or the man in the moon can do about it.

Knowing that means listening to, and commenting on, a speech written by the same idiots who got us into this mess is of little interest.

What has happened to CUK today?

Linky - merely for completelness

I wonder what she'd really say given the chance?

She'd say "So what do you do then?"

“My government is committed to helping families and businesses through difficult times”

Firstly, what about individuals?

Secondly, if they didn’t help families and businesses into difficult times, they wouldn’t have to help them through them either.
