I keep coming back in this blog to the utter mess of the finances of the country. I know it may be boring, but it can't be underestimated. Our children and grandchildren will be paying for the complete and utter disaster. The numbers hurt your eyes. And still the bad news keeps coming and coming. As the title of this blog says, when will it all end. Here's just a few more snippets for you to ponder over your favourite malt this chilly December evening:
A regular Tragic Kingdom reader advises me that we're now in the Armageddon situation of the income tax from those in employment not even covering the benefit handouts to those who are "not economically active".
It's now being reported that, in the middle of a war which has all the hallmarks of becoming another Vietnam clusterfuck, massive defence cuts are on the way. This includes scaling back our presence in Cyprus, slashing the numbers of MoD Police and closing an air base in the UK. The two new aircraft carriers are in danger of being shelved too. Pound to a penny the air base to close will be Leuchers, Kinloss or Lossiemouth.
Brown has just spunked another £1.5 Billion at Copenhagen to sate his ego yet again purporting to be the man saving the world. This is far more than the Germans or French. Of course they have leaders who operate in the real world.
When will this mad man be stopped?
It really is time for Mandelson to take a glass of brandy and revolver to Brown's study for the good of the country.
Music tonight is a fantastic cover of the Neil Diamond song "Girl you'll be a Woman Soon" by Urge Overkill.
