Osborne. It's a work day, things of importance are happening, WTF are you doing having a nice day out at Wimbledon in the Royal Box?

This caught my eye the other day when I got chance to see some of Wimbledon, thankfully someone else noticed.

Quote:
“Get back to the office, George,” one spectator yelled at embarrassed Osborne, 40, as he sat in the Centre Court Royal Box with dad Sir Peter and Bank of England governor Sir Mervyn King, 63.

Mirror Clicky

The country is fine - no economic crisis, no mass strikes, prices are low and services are good.

It wouldn’t be a problem if that were the case - shows he’s doing his job well. As it is, he should be back in Whitehall working on that Plan B that we’re likely to need in a few month’s time.

Screw curious George, the question I'd like answered is why the supposed independent head of the BoE is being so chummy with the chancellor, whoever that might be.

Indeed, it seemed many people who should be concentrating on their work were busy having fun at Wimbledon this week.

No no you are wrong the Chancellors plan is perfect. No need for a plan b, as it might upset the markets. /s

@paulzolo

you need a 'labour and lard', 'coalition and cerebrum' and a 'tory and trough' soup/s to add to your menu ...

I can add those words to the list, but it's all randomly generated each time a can is drawn, so your selection may not always appear.

Tory and Baglady soup may be one to look forward to.
