What does a former postman and trade union official know about running one of the largest economies in the world?
No doubt the answer to this is that he will know just as much as a man whose only real job has been data entry for the NHS.
Exactly!! I know everyone will complain because he it is Labour but Osbourne isn't much better qualified.No doubt the answer to this is that he will know just as much as a man whose only real job has been data entry for the NHS.

If Balls had got the job he might as well have painted a great big target on his forehead, he was pulling Winky's strings at the Treasury for ten years.
Seriously?!!I think not, he may have provided Gordon with some light entertainment with his fiscal intelligence. That is all.
The media’s obsession with the labour party is now really beginning to grate. WTF cares, in the real world, who has what post in an opposition party - especially so when it was these very people who were too scared to say boo to a goose when Brown was destroying the UK?
Again, despite it being the Tory party conference, we are led to believe that we are still being run [to the ground and beyond], by the media’s labour friends and family! Is this why labour are always artificially high profile?

Yvette Cooper as Shadow Foreign Scretary - good job she's not the real one as her patronising and "faux sincere" atitude would have every country she visited declaring war on us within hours of her departure.
She should be breakfast lunch and dinner for Hague, or Camoron. Hopefully Hague has got the recent press intrusion out of his system.obob said:
