Brilliant? NOT!

Brown's budget has turned round and clearly given him a really nasty bite. I'm glad he is now the most hated politician in Britain. Weirdly, it probably has nothing to do with the lowest under £18,000 getting less money, and all to do with the fact that if you hand out wads of cash, at some point you have to stop. If you have been receiving the cash, you mightily resent not getting it any more.
It was only a matter of time before Our Tone escaped the most hated politician position. When you are a genius politician it becomes not too difficult to beat a psycho.
What is really interestimg is that Brown clearly thought it was a masterstroke. It just goes to show how judgement decays with power. On the other hand, he may never have been that good a politician. We simply keep being told he is.
Or maybe Tone egged him on, realising what would happen.
Now that really is a masterstroke.
