It does not seem that long ago the same people were telling us we’ve got to stop frittering our money away on consumer goods; holidays; ectc. etc. and should be putting away more of our earnings into saving for our pensions and education and so on.

Now we are being told that saving as bad for the economy and people who follow the previous advice are undermining the economy by not spending money. Talk about a guilt trip?

It seems the only way I can help the economy is to stop paying into the pension fund and cease paying the allowence to the two sprogs. Opting instead to drag them out of further & higher education in favour of working down the pit or in the mill. The purchase of cloth caps for them to doff to our betters will be a good starting contribution towards kick starting the economy.

One of the best posts I’ve read on the whole sorry shambles.

Getting a bit tired of watching the poor suffer meself, tbh.

These people have no bloody conscience at all.
