On Gordon Brown
It always makes me laugh to hear a fat man talk about a lean economy...
But anyway, I want to know why we as an in debt nation of borrowers should get excited about getting further into debt by taking on the expense of hosting the world cup, and make no mistake it will run to a loss, when we are already being told the bid for the Olympics was half of what the current cost estimate stands at, and that is 5 years away!!!
Well, next time I hear someone order a double whopper with cheese and a DIET coke, I will think of Gordy {Though to be honest, I am sure his policy advisors and private secretary would probably order it with mayo too!}, I will think of his his lean economy, and I will think of all that preaching about sound housekeeping and financial prudence we get from our 'betters' in Westminster, not to mention all that crap about carbon footprints, which don't by the way, get reduced by Prestige Development Projects.
If they are hell bent on spending OUR money this way at least don't build it all in a part of the country that will be 40 metres under water when temperatures go up from the carbon produced by the diggers, and then be arsy enough to tax us for global warming.
I COMMEND THIS BUDGET TO THE HOUSE!
