One week on and Gurhkas still dominate

How can a week pass, the PM gets photographed with a Swastika backdrop and now Phil Woolas is destroyed by an Actress?

LA has not blogged much over the last few weeks, it has seemed pointless, it is impossible to add to the current farce with commentary, as it is beyond even the writing of Armando Iannucci.

All Coventry MP's vote against Gurhkas

LA has just looked into whether Coventry MP's voted for or against (or abstained) the motion to allow Gurkha's to reside in Britain.

Bob Ainsworth, as Minister for the Armed Forces voted against, Sir how do you think all our service personnel will regard you now?

Jim Cunningham and Geoffrey Robinson bot voted against. They both put party over morals and showed a fear and a spinelessness before the whips, that no Gurkha has ever shown before any enemy of Britain.

We voted for these people to represent and lead........pathetic.

Will Brown be a Swine

LA has not blogged for a whole week for a variety of reasons.

It has been another week of Government failure and Brown fiasco, from Polish visit, Gurkha loss to walking off before giving a statement.

The biggest concern for LA is given Browns misanthropic nature, will the Swine flu issue be used to his advantage, regardless of the good of the public. It has to be remembered that Brown is fond of crisis, floods, foot and mouth, even bank collapse at the start.

Would he dare? Is he that callous that he will build this up so he can "save Britain".

LA just thinks he and his cabal may be.

Time Bomb Budget

"he is gambling on a swift recovery"; the words of the BBC website reacting to the budget.

The thing is "he" is not gambling, we are, the taxpayer and public. for him there is no gamble. He knows his growth forecasts are Jackanory, but he also knows he wont have to deal with the consequences.

His only gamble is did he poison the ground enough to restrict Camerons majority.
The 50% high rate tax is like an episode of Life on Mars. We are into the failing economics of the 70's. It will lead to a brain drain, goes counter to the Chancelor saying he wants Britain to be a Global Financial centre and is just a political gauntlet thrown before the Conservatives in a look back to class war mentality.

The headline grabing stuff such as the "scrappage scheme" are garbage in themselves, how many people running a 10 year old car will buy a new one, how can the government ensure it is fully passed on to the buyer and not skimmed by the dealer.
Also if you are a nurse who works when there is no public transport, you need to buy a £900 run about, well they will be no more!

Why continue with the lower VAT rate, scrap it now. Train under 25 year olds to do what. Fund sixth form places, it was thia lot that cocked the funding up in the first place.

LA can think of no redeeming features.

Cameron and Osbourne had better be good at Bomb Disposal, because this is a big one.

Nice rant, LA feels a little better now.

Will anyone defect?

Will any Labour backbenchers defect to the Conservatives?

For some it could be their only slim hope of staying an MP after next spring.

The Email scandal and tomorrows budget could deliver all the reasoning?

LA doubts it but does not think it impossible.

Lets hope someone does jump ship, it would pour even more pressure on Brown.

Even Lego mocks Brown

LA visited Legoland Windsor today. Whilst looking at the incredible Lego copy of London he could see all the major landmarks, he could not however see Downing Street.
He then spotted a big model truck parked at the back of a building, he instantly, and correctly, knew it was the back 10 Downing Street, the truck said "Browns Removals". Fantastic, even Lego model builders get it.

How can you spin rubbish?

LA has been amused by Mandelson today. His idea to spin away from the Ed Ball, Brown McBride, et al affair is to come back to "The Recession".

Has it not struck him that polls reveal that despite their denial, the majority of UK voters have them firmly in the dock for "The Recession".

It is like hitting yourself on the head with a hammer to nullify the pain of a broken leg.

The meltdown continues, and who knows what treat Guido has.
