I told you so.

But I have to admire the spitefulness of swinging the axe most strongly at Baron Mandelson's former empire and the creativity of making it the feif of Vince Cable (one of the token L/Ds in the cabinet, when he really should have been chancellor in place of George, Yah!) - and then taking the axe to it.

Meanwhile, while George Yah! cuts things that benefit the less well off, Boris Bloody Stupid Johnson relieves Kensington and Chelsea of congestion duty at a cost of umpteen million. Er - who is he helping there? The residents of Kensington and Chelsea. And are they likely to be rich or poor?

And in his spare time he revives plans for Boris Island. After all, the people who will have the planes circling overhead and polluting thier land aren't the rich from Kensington and CHelsea are they?

Oh, and while we are at it, the help for the economy, to avoid a double-dip recession, is focussed on apprenticeships. Well, I suppose the rich have to have someone trained as servants, don't they?

Tumbrils at the ready please.
