A Certain Something

Now that the Budget has proven such a success, George the Progressively Regressive has leapt into the Libor scandal with his usual hobnailed sebacity. As with everything else that isn't the fault of Euro-wogs, the poor or the weather, the last Labour government was to blame, and self-evidently has many more questions to answer than any Conservative donor. Of course it is hardly an implausible supposition that Gordon Brown's ragbag of liars, torturers, creeps and incompetents might also have included a crook or two, just like Daveybloke's own rabble of thieves, bullies, psychopaths and half-wits; and of course we are all now aware that when the Conservatives agitated in opposition for less regulation of the banking sector, they were not referring to the banking sector as a whole but only to Conservative donors with honourable intentions. Still, it must have taken a certain something for the double-dip chancellor himself to poke his dewlap out of doors at this point, though it is doubtful whether that something is a thing many human beings would particularly care to have.
