    Interesting to notice he's already dressed like he's going to a funeral!:eek:
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    "Q: Why are the business department cuts so large? And how did Vince Cable react to them?

    Osborne says the business department is one of the biggest spending departments in Whitehall.
    Laws says Cable was "very pleased indeed" in being able to play his part. Cable is "the deficit hawk's pin-up", Laws says"


    Well gee thanks Dave.

    Listened to Osbournes CBI speech the other day, played it back to be sure and "non-business CGT will rise". :(

    So possibly a miserable day on the 22nd Jun. Just hope that any Osbourne-VC-influenced CGT changes are sensible.

    All this venom from 'MEN' :eek:. The only women I'll b*tch about (um maybe) are the ones who've had surgery.... and they'll get their comeuppance in due course. You can't cut muscle and get away with it forever.
