on the eve of massive walk outs and strike actions as an increasingly disenfranchised workforce, belittled by the millionaire newspapers owners and government wonks, watching in desperation as the cuts and belt tightening continue to exert a disproportionate effect on the poor, presumably, given all that, our dear chancellor would consider it a tad "unseemly" turning up at wimbledon, centre court, royal box no less! fanning himself with a copy of H&H no doubt whilst sipping a chilled Pimms. I'm quite sure Gideon would almost certainly pass up the generous invitation, and spend the normal working day worrying about the state of the economy, the widening gap between rich and poor, the general strike wouldnt he?

Imagine my surprise to see that half sneer/half glaikit gaze peering over centre court....the Federer and the Murray quarters on centre court no less?

I can only assume that Mr Osbourne is merely seeing what taking a day off is like for the countless thousands either striking or being forced to take a day off to look after the kids in order that he's in a better position to see what real life is about....thats it....right George?

Jesus Christ, what a superstar

MP's are public servants, I wonder if they'll be getting the same raw deal as everyone else?

I'm sure they will....although their pension review has been.....ahem....delayed for the forseeable future whilst they deal with all this beastly unpleasantness you understand

Not quite in the same league of hypocrisy as Bob Crowbar dining in very expensive west end restuarants in the last week or two - accompanied by his senior union colleagues, they spent many hundreds of pounds in one sitting.

MP,s pensions - the system should be scrapped,a nd replaced with one which is the same as the one they imposed on the private sector approx. a decade ago.
