Government U Turns

[Svejk]

No reduction in Tax Credits. No reduction in policing. All the protest on AB, yet no-one congratulating the Chancellor. What about the Shadow Chancellor? Oh dear.

Razor-blades are reusable, but tampons???

[Gromit]

The planned cuts in Police numbers really were not a good idea. I have been warning of unforeseen consequences if they went ahead. Perhaps someone at Conservative Central Office also realised that the policy was prime for backfiring and costing more.

As a mere man, and a bachelor to boot, I must leave detailed discussion about tampons to others, but I will say this...........when did ladies sanitary products become luxury items ?

I can choose to use a razor blade or not, but women don't have the same choice available to them concerning tampons.

I suspect this may turn out differently in a short while, rather in the way of a previous Osborne omni-shambles...the Pasty Tax.

Pasties aren't a luxury item either Mikey. They're an essential nutrient.

Osborne or the Tories or even Chairman Mao have nothing to do with the tampon tax, that is all down to your European masters.
