Brothers

Above is the Milliband brothers, currently vying for the spot of leader of the opposition for the next decade or so. They don't look like brothers, don't even sound like brothers, maybe someone should interview their mom, just in case we have unauthenticated brothership here. They look, and act, like a bedroom set from MFI. For people who do not know about MFI, think of the worst kind of chipboard furniture in one of your out of town sheds. That's MFI, needless to say as soon as the financial proverbial hit the fan, MFI exited stage left, along with all the wardrobes and bedside cabinets. Only to re-surface as the "NEW" (don't mention the failed old new) labour.

See here's the thing. Me and my brother, we don't see that much of each other, wedding and funerals, we send cards containing the same amount of money to each other, which seems pretty pointless. We have different interests, I have no idea what his are, but they sure aren't the same as mine. I' m the cultured one, I once went on a skiing holiday, hated it, but I went. But and here is the thing, we look pretty much the same now we are getting old, we sound the same. have similar hang ups, except the booze of course, only me got that one. So why do Ed and David Milliband sound so different.

It's a good question to ask, maybe someone should ask it.

On a different note all is good here. The government is gradually cranking up the pressure on the public, bit by bit another part of the nation( read the north) goes quietly away and dies. The mp's are currently shooting from the hip at anything that could possibly save them money, tax payers, the public, workers, consumers, motorists, unemployed, nurses, police, firemen. Fortunately they are leaving the bankers alone, which is nice because we were a little beastly to them back in 2008-2009. Which was wrong, because as it turns out its them that make all the money, so those of us that don't ( everyone else) should be thankful.

We are off to a wedding tomorrow, two love birds who found love in the happy club are getting hitched in an old stately home. Who says it doesn't get better. If they have as much love and happiness as me and My Beautiful, then they will be very happy.

Have a good weekend all of you and take care
