With the Chancellor’s Budget this week, I just had to laugh although deep down I could cry.

Oh what a fine mess you have us in,

you the Chancellor or is it your twin.

Yes tax the rich and give to the poor,

but not for the fat cat living next door.

************

The Labour Faithful may call you Robin Hood,

but robbing us all of our savings, that’s no Good.

So you look for cuts in the public spending,

to save the many trillion of pounds for lending.

 ************

But all the public jobs lost to save paying wages,

also loses taxable revenue as one turns the pages.

Not only does it lose jobs for the public sector,

but also for the private company contractor.

************

So if Brown and Darling can’t see this mistake,

this once great rich country they shall break.

We need to manufacture, invest in Britain,

and let us feel safe and financially smitten.

************

You tell us all to go and spend! spend! spend!

and the loan sharks want to lend! lend! lend!

That’s what happens when we can’t pay back,

because our jobs have disappeared down a crack.

************

But thanks to you our noble Government,

you have shown yourselves incompetent.

Of running this country well into the ground,

devaluing every British worker by the pound.

************

The End
