Workshy layabout scrounger here without a real job and, what’s even worse, not even looking for one.
Look. I can’t linger because I have the bloody Cabinet on my back… again. Jeremy Hunt is loaded for bear and Laura Trott has the bloodhounds out. How she managed to find one of my old socks I do not know but the dogs now have my scent.
The point I wanted to make before I make a dash for the nearest fast-moving steam is that I wish life were as easy as Laura Trott seems to think it is. The chief secretary to the Treasury went on Sky News on Tuesday to make a bold statement: “Ultimately there is a duty on citizens if they are able to go out to work they should,” she said. “Those who can work and contribute should contribute.”
If only life were that simple, Laura, and I pray that you never experience any crisis in your life to make you realise how profoundly stupid you sound.
