COALITION TO BRING BACK CHIMNEY SWEEPS?

With the electorate having engendered the wrath of the BBC for daring to throw out Labour. it’s only natural that every story be taken and given a twist that puts the knife into the evil Coalition. And so it is that on an item on an exhibition of life in the Victorian workhouses, there is the suggestion that “in a way” this is what the Coalition is proposing bringing back. Next week – Cameron to send kids up chimneys?

    Hi DV, do you really think that the interviewer’s reference to ‘echoes of the debate today’ on workfare was as overt as you’ve taken it?

    I found it more incongruous than overt! That said, I was fed up listening to Today that anything would have got me going! 😉

    Will there be a new degree programme at universities for chimney sweeps?  Getting a university education seems to be a human right today.

      I don’t think ‘cleaning out your pack passge’ has the same meaning these days.
