Don’t choke Dave – it’s only another cock up.

I bet that Cornish pasty has a bitter taste Dave. If only you didn’t keep trying to be an ordinary bloke then we wouldn’t be laughing at your latest U-turn, well, maybe. If you are lucky enough not to live in the UK during David Cameron’s premiership, you may not have seen the great hot food tax scandal that has been rocking Britain….with laughter.

Dave’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, messed up (to use a milder term than I want) the   budget the other month in a number of ways involving cock-ups over taxing ordinary people (not millionaries) – the one that is sticking in their throats was the tax on hot take-away food including such staple foods as Sausage rolls and Cornish Pasties. Dave and George, even though they are both millionaires, have been going round ever since stuffing their mouths with fast food, mmmm, delicious, they thought. So this is how the other half eats.

It wasn’t very convincing and it got them into loads of trouble in the popularity polls, oh yes, if you don’t live in the UK, you might not know that Dave and George get more unpopular every time they try to be “one of us” telling us that now that we are living through “austerity” times, we are “all in it together.” They’ve even got their coalition partner Nick Clegg chewing away. I hope they don’t choke.

Maybe it’s a trick to keep their mouths full of fast food all the time so that they don’t have to say anything about how they’ve been forced to change the policy because it just wasn’t going to work.

The Labour Party, the Opposition, can’t believe their luck. Every time Dave and George come up with a new idea, their laughing their heads off.

Who would have  guessed it, Dave, when stuffing your face seemed such a pleasant blokey thing to do – well, everyone except you and your chums, I suspect.
