A Chancelor who loves history but can't add up

I really can not understand how a man who has a degree in Modern History can actually be qualified to run the country's bank account.  Yes, I'm talking about an ignoramus called George (the Toff) Osborne.  The very man who has led such a privileged life he believes the best way to cut the budget deficit is to put a tax on pasties.  He of course doesn't eat them himself but he does see a lot of poor people eat them and believes they may as well dig his rich banker friends out of a hole.  Just as Cameron jumps up and down and says it was the previous labour government which put the country in the place it is now.  This excuse is now wearing pretty thing, again this is the excuse of an idiot who does not actually look around to see how much traffic there is on the road before crossing it.  "It's a world bloody recession you twat," is bellowed by an under 35 year old who has found out they will not get the adult rate of subsistence in housing support and have to share a house with multiple other occupiers.

As for the Liberal Democrats, well.  Bile rises up inside when I think how they came across as a rational clear thinking alternative before getting in bed with the Tories and creating one of the most dangerous coalition governments there has ever been.  Mark my words.  Lib Dems will not see the poster of power again for another 70 years once the coalition ends.  They have well and truly signed their own death warrant.  There is no third party alternative.  What will happen is voters will get disillusioned and then vote any other crack pot political grouping.  Then Parliament will be crammed out with loonies all representing their own interests and nothing ever getting done.  It will be proportional representation by stealth, something the Lib Dems have never considered, but then by that time there will probably only be one Lib Dem left in parliament and he or she go in by pretending to be something they're not.  No change there then.
