@guywalters An utter fiasco and hugely damaging for the Government to lose their Defence Minister at this troubled time over the budget. And still Starmer won’t listen…
What would you do if were bimbling along in Poland in 1944 and found an entire V2 in a marsh? Leave it alone? Hide it before the Germans arrived? Or spirit it away to Britain? Found out what really happened in my new @HoZ_Books book coming out Thursday, Stealing Hitler's Rocket!
@guywalters@HoZ_Books Bang on timing, (see what I did there…)
My copy arrived in the post this morning. Just in time for my week away in Norfolk next week. Looking forward to reading it.
Best of luck with it Guy.
@guywalters And that about sums him up, a man who says a lot & yet says nothing. I love the fact that he considers himself a wise old sage with the answers to so many societal travails when his legacy left so much to be desired.
I hope the time comes when I am so revered in my senior years.
If the problem is you're borrowing too much, that arises because you're spending too much. If you're spending too much, you must reduce your spending...It's a very silly person that says, "I'm going bankrupt the way I am but I can't afford to cut so don't ask me."

You know 30% of the people in council houses have higher household incomes than 45% of the people in owner-occupied homes. And yet, the people in the owner-occupied homes are having to subsidise some of that 30%.
You don't cut subsidies to those people who need them. The trouble now is they're right across the board.
And where do subsidies come from? Not from the government, but out of the taxpayers' pocket.
