Go, Trisha!

Further to the below, check out the first item (after Neil's usual Woganish preamblings) on last night's This Week.

Trisha, a 'lifelong leftie' supports IDS's reforms. That's not all that surprising, since apparently 58% of Labour voters support welfare reform, as does 70% of the country as a whole. What is suprising is that John Cruddas also broadly welcomes them. Funny thing is, Blair and Brown could have done all this when we had an economic boom, but they avoided it for fear of angering people like Trisha and John.

Much have I missed, goings-on, doings, stuff, sedition, students out of their halls of res, vast ghostly crowds of Cockney poor plodding up the Doncaster bypass, pitifully few belongs in handcarts reminiscent of the Pas-de-Calais roads in 1940, northern estate agents frantically revising their prices upwards, N.Cohen banging on again, plod aiding and abetting rioters and the Toon beating Arsenal. Never again shall I desert these shores in Autumn.

Is Trisha's channel five program anything like her ITV rival's? If it wasn't for the creation of a hopeless, welfare-dependent sink-estate chavocracy there would be noone to appear on the Jeremy Kyle show.

Wondered where you'd gone malty - glad you're back in the thick of it. Mr Neil sounds as wonderfully merry as ever, whatever the news. I'm curious to know if anyone else has noticed that Mr Portfolio's nose is growing bigger and bigger?

Ah, the one-way ratchet of the welfare state.
