Tax Cuts for Breakfast

Tomorrow both Gordon and Dave have scheduled press conferences. Dave is having his at 8.30 in the morning to make sure he gets his announcement out first. Clegg has been jumping up and down all day in broadcast studios saying “look at me, the big boys are copying me”. You wait years for a tax cut promise and then three come at once…

UPDATE : The Tory press conference was originally for 10.00 tomorrow morning. Downing Street shifted Brown’s monthly press conference to 9.30 tomorrow, instead of the usual 12.00. Dave then brought his forward to 8.30. Perhaps Gordon will try and trump himby slipping in some policy changes in his speech tonight at the Lord Mayor’s banquet.

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.
