Blunder!

I haven't spoken on the subject of the death of our Iron lady last week. I haven't had much time for British politics, and that is what it is. I started to write a post condemning the crass partying and singing, in effect dancing on the old lady's grave. Despite that fact that I didn't like her I find the footage of the black festivities low life in the extreme. Sickening in fact.

That said I have a serious concern. If the Conservative party are so in thrall to their dear departed leader that they think a funeral to match Winston Churchill's is appropriate, they will deserve their place on the opposition benches in two years time for their gross incompetence as politicians. Make no mistake, I do not wish them to lose the next general election. Quite the opposite. It is their total inability to gauge the public mood that is annoying me. It's the same blindness that they have with the 45p tax band. The maths might work for tax receipts, but it is the maths of an election they should have their eye on. You can implement nothing from the opposition benches. I seriously believe that we may be about to witness a political car crash in slow motion.

What the hell are the LibDems doing allowing this? Get a grip and stop this folly. If the Conservative Party want to fund it from their own coffers, so be it, but not from our much burdened taxes.

I for one will not watch. I have a seriously bad feeling about this forthcoming event.
