Oaten Dumps Winchester

The news that Mark Oaten is dumping his politicial career has hit hard. The loss of such a rich source of double entendre and innuendo will be keenly felt. Guido feared for Mark’s sanity – the Hello interviews, the reality TV escapades, at last some sense has prevailed. His transparent attempt to spin his way back into the frontline of politics with daytime TV-style victimhood psycho-babble failed, so he is off to help the third world. God help them. Farewell Mark. Guido will miss you.

John Higginson of the Metro explains Quantitative Easing:

“There is £100 and 100 loaves of bread costing £1 each. QE creates another £100. Each loaf now costs £2.”

Maybe if they really wanted to “decontaminate the Labour brand” with business people, they shouldn’t have totally buggered up the economy?

Just a thought.
