"A campaign for a new, privately funded yacht for the Diamond Jubilee is now under way, and Mr Miliband was asked whether he would be prepared to donate money.
He replied: "I'm not sure that... well, I don't know, if people come to me, I'll investigate. I think the main principle for me to apply is public money and how public money should be spent.
"I give money to charity in different ways. There are obviously lots of deserving causes.""

RBS has announced thousands of job cuts, although it recorded a £2bn profit in its most recent trading quarter, compared with a £1.6bn loss in the same period in 2010.

Wasn't it a couple of days ago he said he'd prevent the bosses of banks bailed out by the State from getting million-pound bonuses? Yet now that RBS chap gets £900,000 and we're supposed to think Cameron has taken action on his promises because it's only 90% of a million.
Cameron is big on talk but does precisely nothing, and the chocolate orange thing is just one example among many.

I was just amused that when we are in the midst of discussions about economic survival (which they are caused) the best 'new lie-in' can mange is 'what about the chocolate orange?'

The issue here is not people eating chocolate. It is why people are so fat. Maybe cars should have a set of scales in the seat so that fat people cannot get in them?

And Labour's 'sign-anything' attitude to Europe markedly different to the Conservative 'isolation'.
