A truly Churchillian government!

Postby Spuffler » Fri Mar 30, 2012 7:08 pm

We now have a truly Churchillian government, in the wake of the Budget!

"Never before in the history of parliament have so many been so ruthlessly mugged by a Chancellor to feed the greed of so few."

"We'll rob 'em on the beaches and on the landing grounds, in the fields, and on the streets; in the banks and building societies, in the shops, in the petrol stations, and from their pensions and their wage packets, from their bakeries and their school canteens...."

"I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat, and in exchange offer poverty and ill-health for your old age, poor schools for your kids, endless overtime - if you're lucky enough to have a job, AND YOU SHOULD BE THANKFUL FOR IT ALL!!!".



And if you can think of any more suitable (mis)quotes, please feel free...........

"Mr. Osborne is a very modest man. Indeed he has a lot to be modest about."

"Now this is not the end of the recession. It is not even the beginning of the end of the recession. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning of the depression."

"Economic planning is the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn't happen."
