Which travel agent is that?!

Milliband on PMQs today revealed an outrageous fact: 'Chancellor spends as much on his annual skiing holiday as [low paid public sector worker] earns IN A WEEK!'

Family skiing holiday for £250-500! Yes please!

I think that may just go to show how out of touch that wker really is. I'm willing to bet he wouldn't have ever booked, let alone paid for, his own holiday in his life - the butler'll do it for him, or mummy.

He get's right on my tits!

Milliband..... I'd love to see his head on a spike

He's magnificent when you listen to PMQ on the radio. Always sounds just like he's going to burst into tears and run back to Hampstead for Mummy to sort it out. The man the term "snotgobbler" was invented for.

Milliband is comedy genius.

Ed Miliband flubbed a line today at PMQs, accusing Cameron of attacking strikers, such as cleaners or dinner ladies, who “earn in a week what the chancellor pays for his annual skiing holiday”

Unless the chancellor is going on budget student ski trips, it seems unlikely that his skiing holiday costs just £231. And indeed, it seems he spent rather more than that.

As the Mail reported in January:

Osborne has been staying with wife Frances and their two children at the Swiss resort which is regarded as a ‘winter playground for the rich and famous’.

It would normally cost around £11,000 for a similar family holiday at the resort.

For reference, the minimum wage for a 21 year old working a 35 hour week with four weeks holiday and ten bank holidays is £9830.40.

Osborne’s clearly taking the piste.

I thought it was just my iffy hearing as i didn't think anyone could be that stupid and out of touch

So he did actually say in a week

I thought i was mishearing him saying a year

Given Labour, sooner or later, the public sector workers will be earning in a week what George Osborne spends on his annual skiing holiday.
