The Sally Ann, donkey charidee and all the others may be missing a trick in paying for adverts when they could get a journo or two onside to promote their causes in the Daily Diana.

No, they didn't think it through.

[New Judge]

Indeed they didn't. 

We had lengthy discourse at he time and I came to th econclusion that Ms Reeves and her advisors took a similar view to one of our correspondents:

"i think people are making a massive stink over the NI contributions."

Basically, since it's a tax on employers it doesn't really matter.

Well it does.

 

"i think people are making a massive stink over the NI contributions."

I thought at the time when the correspondent made that remark that it was an incredibly naive thing to say.

The Sally Ann, donkey charidee and all the others may be missing a trick in paying for adverts when ..... they know the whole of the Cabinet will end up being herded into the DOnkey  Sanctuary

Well I hope they didnt think.  The alternative is that they did and couldn't care less.

I wouldnt take too much notice of the "correspondent".

Absolutely zero financial nouse.
