anybody would be a crap chancellor with the amount of debt he picked up, wish they would sort the economy out regardless, then I can come back home and get myself a teaching job. Then I could see the albion again.

What is the point ? Sacking a few nobodies to be replaced by a few nobodies whilst the biggest twat stays as chancellor (more bad retail figures today) whilst a lib dem sacked for fraud is weaseled back in. If you or I did £40k in benefits fraud we'd be in jail not in the cabinet

The reemergence of that shifty Lib Dem is almost as depressing as the fact that Gideon is virtually unsackable thanks to being best of Bullingdon Buddies with the piggy eyed PM (currently enjoying the adulation of a successful Paralympics whilst planning on £ millions of cuts at the expense of the disabled).

Yes , derry irvine and charlie falconer were in no way tony blairs cronies were they, and how many times did he bring back mandelson? by all means criticise osborne for his performance as chancellor , but to claim that this government alone operates some sort of old boys network is totally without foundation.

All I'm saying is that Cameron and Osborne were best of chums. For that reason alone, I'm not expecting Cameron to EVER have the stones to sack Gideon, despite him being a shockingly TOILET chancellor.

And this chancellor was the dogs nuts wasnt he
Gordon Brown sold off Britain’s gold for between $256 and $296 an ounce, raising $3.496bn (£2.343bn at the then exchange rate). Since then the gold price has gone up more than 5 times to $1,580.70 an ounce. If the gold had not been sold it would now be worth £12.6 billion, over five times the £2.3 billion originally raised.

Labour doubled the national debt and left the biggest deficit in peacetime history. So Milliband and Balls it is then.

Mind you Gideon has increased the National Debt by £600 billion in the 2 years hes been doing it so Gordon was a lot more frugal than the current clown

Yawn.
Who out of any of the other parties at the time said 'Dont do that Gordan because the price of gold will go up in a few years time!'
No one!
Hindsight is a fantastic tool for dishing out a beating with.

With the annual deficit running at around £150bn, that's some interesting maths you have there. Care to explain?

Exactly, be interesting to read how many and who made comments saying it wasn't a good idea at the time otherwise such comments are worthless

Lansley got the boot because no one could understand what the changes of the NHS (which were not in his parties election manifesto or the coalition agreement remember) were about, why they are needed and what they will mean.
Given that he came up with the ideas and still couldnt communicate them, what chance has this other bedwetter got?!

I guess Jeremy Hunt will be ringing Murdoch to ask him what he should be saying ?
