No offence Jack, but just been thinking about your last point;

Etonian millionaires don't understand people first. Ok. A bit of a sweeping statement I suppose but I tend to largely agree with it. But I can't see how it is different to Cameron and Osborne getting together over a pint and saying "people" don't understand what pays for their social needs.

In fact, if we all judge understanding by our background, who at all could be considered fit to govern? According to Bridge, I'm not even a professional, so that's me out for starters.

Talking of which, I largely agree with him that if the Darling / Brown policies weren't followed, we could easily be, say, Greece. Of course, he fails to mention the 100% backing of the approach by Cameron & Osborne, but that's another matter.

Mind you, if if if... As an old mate never said, if my Aunty had balls, she'd be my Uncle.
