PSST. DON'T MENTION THE BANKER BAIL OUT.

I saw the most recent party political broadcast (PPB) from The Conservative Party today. According to the Tories, we are in so much debt because of Labour's borrowing and spending.

The Tories are taking the limeade.

May I remind the British voter that around 2007/8 we bailed out The City of London to the jaw-dropping sum of approximately £1 trillion.

I'll repeat that again.

£1 trillion.

And The City of London was allowed to rack up such debts because:
1. The Tories not only supported Labour's light-touch regulation of The City of London, THEY WANTED EVEN LESS!
2. The wicked witch Margaret Thatcher empowered The City of London to expand its global casino operations which contributed to the aforementioned bailout of The City of London in 2007/8.

Which is why the UK national debt looks like this:




The Tory PPB consisted of Der Fuhrer looking rather suave telling us we've done good so far but there's still a lot more pain to come before we pay off our debts.

OUR DEBTS?!

WTF IS HE ON ABOUT?!

Yes, Labour did increase the national debt significantly, but that was because they unnecessarily bailed out the Tories best mates, The City of London, with £1 trillion!!

And the Tory PPB shows working/middle class people of many ethnicities agreeing with the Tories that we have got to live in fascist oiksterity forever and a day because of OUR debts!!

IT IS NOT OUR DEBT.

IT IS THE BANKERS DEBT.

ALL £1 TRILLION OF IT.

The Tories are hoping that we will have forgotten that next year when we got to the voting booth.

And sadly, they'll be right. The muggins British taxpayer will vote for more oiksterity. Please, Sir. Can we have some more austerity?

It's gud 'ere, innit?

(Psst. Don't mention the banker bailout.)
