QE Jubilee money printing spending spree

We spend-a da money, we make-a da money!

They say, ‘things will get worse
Before they get better’.
They say the Brits will blame anything
on the Queen or the weather.

Did you know the bank of England
Writes the chancellor a letter
when inflation is bigger – and it’s meant to be lesser?

The bank is the government’s kind of ‘quantitative easing’ confessor.

Because inflation can make the nation

Reconsider it’s place in

The race to save face in

A sort of Keynesian re-balancing,
Of the economy
Which means dismantling,
what the debt mountain mandarins
Made with their fiscal shenanigans

So most Europeans are travelling
Along 
a tight rope
unravelling
with the vain hope
that some tinkering and restructuring

of the economic bad management

will stop collaterally damaging
the euro’s more vulnerable governments

who’s plans for development
through democratic provisionment
meant spreading the wealth

amongst the 99% who’ve felt
that if the euro melts

its not really their fault,

A majority now fraught because they find they’re caught

between paying

for something

the bankers did,

and they

plainly

did not.

Euro revision wrong contest

Oh the days of our malaise
Date back so long ago
When even the uk
Thought of joining the euro

Over the years
Have grown fears
That before long we’ll go

From euros to zeros
Making Britain a no go
For the economic woes
Of it’s neighbours exposed
To financial embargoes
Let alone weird politico’s
Like the Wing nuts who follow
A different logo
And pose no
Solutions – other than fascismo
As a prejudiced placebo
To ye old
Common Market manifesto

Euro vision no go for party’s over competition oh-oh’s!

“Oh oh oh!” the euro goes
to Azerbaijan for its vision,

where human rights and other flights
of fancy meet derision,

where the Grecians sing
of Olympic rings
and
harsh bail out conditions,

while the French stick in
their votes for things
less austere and more forgiving,

Where the Irish wish
Jedward will miss
out on winning the competition,

because in point of fact
Europe can’t hack
the expense to back,
hosting next year’s competition!

red ed-itor hacks into national conscience with different hair colour!

Ms. Brooks next move

is on the hoove

horse bolted

Murdoch stable doors left open

perhaps it’s too late

to be outspoken

better to dance on strictly

before things get more stick-ey

it worked wonders for Edwina

as well as ressurrecting Anne Widdicombe

quite quickly.
