Ooh, ooh, ooh

GF is taken aback. He has just found himself agreeing with David Cameron. He was speaking at the World Economic Forum and is quoted:

"Why can't we have a Chancellor of the Exchequer who gives a faithful
report of what's happening in the country, and what is actually in his
Budget? That shouldn't be rocket science."


GF would take it further. Why can't we have politicians who try to tell the truth rather than obfuscate. But you carry on Davy boy... good start.

he continues:

"When I worked in the Treasury it would have been unthinkable for the
Chancellor to give a Budget speech in which he didn't include the major
proposals in his Budget,"
he said. "This Chancellor has done it
repeatedly. He did it with changes to Advance Corporation Tax, which
was the big pension funds steal."


Gorse Fox cannot adequately express his contempt for the Chancellor and that move.
