You're far too cynical. The fact of the matter is that there's so much really really great news about - about the economy, the NHS, education, even Libraries - that the budget has simply had to increase to tell us all about them

I don't get it. According to this;
http://www.ukpublicspending.co.uk/total_spending_2012UKbn
Spending is going up on pretty much everything; healthcare, education and welfare. Am I missing something?

in such times of austerity what we need is a model of an imaginary island to tow along from weymouth to bristol, preferably one that will only cost about half a million pounds. oh hang on http://nowhereisland.org

I can't help think: nurses wages, more teachers, disabled care, all may be perfectly valid things to spend money on, but what we really need is a ****ing model island.
