It's like looking at a different species, and i can't see many Scots identifying with them or their policies.<br />Jutemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11061671774494923407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-37465731206625311542012-09-21T10:54:09.339+01:002012-09-21T10:54:09.339+01:00Perhaps Juteman, he's like to pop out to Afgha...Perhaps Juteman, he's like to pop out to Afghanistan and shout at them there.<br /><br />The frightening thing is that IDS is the soft man in the DWP. That Grayling character would have simply had people shot.<br /><br />Even at that I read that he was set to redefine "poverty" so that the government would have a chance of meeting their legally binding target to reduce it.<br /><br />http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2012/06/14/poverty-measure-to-be-redefined_n_1595677.html<br /><br />What, you wonder, happens to a government that misses the target in 2020. Do the English public get to throw them all in jail, or better still send them to the tower and have them beheaded.<br /><br />Wouldn't make much difference to this lot.

(Yipee, that makes me a very excited guy. I love bombing other places, and the thing is, it makes us so popular all the way round the world);<br /><br />In the UK we get to sit on the Security Council. (It's nice there, I always enjoy it when I go, the coffee's good, and nothing like a good chat with the Secretary General, I find);<br /><br />In the UK we have 240 embassies. (Oh damn, I'd forgotten that. I must start visiting them all, and maybe stay over, have dinner with the Ambassador and his good lady);<br /><br />In the UK we are a big noise in the EU. (Hmmm... its a sort of raspberry noise really...very loud though, he's right).<br /><br />All really positive things...always assuming that you give a damn.<br /><br />Apart from that it all boils down to the three toos..<br /><br />wee, poor and stupid. <br /><br />In this case its "poor".
