Recession bites in the Midlands

Ahh yes, George Osborne thinks that kids born in jobless families ought to go hungry to teach Mum a lesson, famously said of his school that it featured a massive cross section of society such that "Your mother could be head of a giant corporation – or a solicitor in Kew."
In 2009 he was found to have filpped his second home. The Lib Dems estimated he owed £55,000 to the public purse as a result of this. He'd already had to pay back £1,193 on overpayments, and it then emerged that he had claimed £47 for two copies of a DVD of his own speech on "value for taxpayers' money".
These people are as much use to this country as a dead squid on the beach needs a burning stepladder.
