Markets have already raised alarm over the plans, sending the pound plunging.

I get feeling the Tories know the game is up and they will lose next election and are ruining the economy so Labour will have no good basis to work from.

There are others who hold that conspiracy theory.

That is one view, but another is that if you look back in history in a down turn or a recession, the poor get poorer and the rich get richer.

The wealthy and rich ride it out and take the opportunity to clean up as and when others are forced to sell up. I suspect if we looked at what companies, and boards large number of the Tories are on and their levels of wealth we would see them in a good position to take advantage.

So the rich ride it out and the poor starve, or die of hypothermia.

She wouldn't like it here then, still 16C indoors. Can't say it's bothering me at the moment.

16C in here too, but my 'blanket with sleeves' is working a treat. I do look a right knob in it though. A bit like Uncle Fester

Thank you Thing!

I wouldn't mind being able to do that, save on electricity. I bet if I stuck a light fitting in my mouth I could get my head to light up, but probably not practical.

Had a warmer evening put the valve amp on and listened to some jazz changed the feel of the day yesterday , might have to put some heating on next month though
