Gidiot's Autumn Statement

George Osborne’s autumn statement –

oh, what a very bad joke.

He pretends he’s fixed economy

but just look at what he broke.

He says he halved the deficit

but aims have not been met,

the deficit’s on the rise again

to say nothing of the debt!

 

Many folk think he’s halved the debt

but this just isn’t true,

he’s well on his way to doubling it!

and doesn’t have the first clue...

The deficit is the gap between

what governments spend and receive,

nothing to do with how much they owe,

I think they hope to deceive.

 

Osborne borrowed more in four years

than Labour did in thirteen.

Since Tories only slash and burn

what does this really mean?

It means he’s spent phenomenal sums

on pure ideology,

while scapegoated sick and disabled

die in abject poverty.

 

PM blames Labour for mess they left

yet global banks caused the crisis,

now he’s at the helm he warns of crash

but blaming other countries!

Why does anyone trust these twits?

or think they do a good job?

Osborne, Cameron and Duncan Smith?

I’d rather hire Rent-a-mob!
