George Osborne has managed to get his party to swallow throwing over £7bn of our money into the Irish Sea never to be seen again. He did this by promising that he was only helping the Irish because of our historical links. Presumably he meant the Irish’s love of killing British citizens. He also promised that he would not waste our money bailing out Portugal and any other eurozone countries who spent more than they earned.
Now who would ever believe a promise made by multimillionaire Osborne? Not me.
