    So that's one third completely focussed on restoring the economy.

    And one third completely focussed on getting people back to work.

    And one third completely focussed on improving standards in public services.

    And, therefore, completely ignoring defence, health, crime, education, etc...




    Nelson put the telescope to his blind eye and said "I see no ships". Gordo went so far as to stick his head up his arse to achieve the same effect.

    Thanks for the e-petition.

    I am completely focussed on restoring the economy, getting people back to work and improving standards in public services. As I have consistently said, I am determined to build a stronger, fairer, better Britain for all.

    I thought you were under orders to be nicer to people?

    I'm beginning to doubt whether the Prime Minister's 2nd eye is real now.
    He obviously didnt see the petition question!

    One other thought - I suppose that they could always get in a contractor to sort the mess out, like companies do in the real world??

    His "chancellor" is certainly light weight, this might turn to be real bad or no difference at all.
