Rich get richer

THE Sunday Times publishes its rich list and lo and behold what does it tell you? Yes, that’s right, the rich are getting richer and the rest of us poorer!

Thanks to Cameron and Clegg looking after their cronies – still as you say chaps “we’re all in it together!

Does Richard Bird think he is saying anything new ('Rich get richer')? Maybe he does not realise that the Labour front bench under that nasty Mr Blair and that nice Mr Brown contained more millionaires than the Tories and the Lib Dems could muster between them. 'Cronyism' was Labour's middle name: "You want to run your grand prix? Slip us a million and we'll see you right ..." The only winners from 'New Labour' were those living on benefits (which is why two thirds of our GDP now goes on benefits, double what it was in 1997) and the very rich who could afford to buy what they wanted. Of course that has all changed now: having bought and paid for the Labour leader the union warlords will call the tune in any future Labour government and Ed the Millipede will dance to it. Which is why Labour have no realistic or sustainable policies: they have not been told what they are yet. So they are reduced to opposing the coalition by seeing what is exercising the red top tabloids this week and blaming the coalition for it. If it was not for the fact that so many of the public believe them it would be sad.
