GORDON Brown has hopped on the 'Let's pacify the natives' bus with his Budget.

He has been loud and open with the giving hand, but very secretive with the hand that is going to claw it all back!

I have a real workable budget that would cover every man woman and child in the country.

My Budget would give us 46,893 extra nurses, 38,784 extra teachers or 34,585 extra policemen.

I can hear you saying "Oh, yes!'' and just who is going to pay for it? The answer is you already do to the tune of £1 billion per week to the EU.

By leaving this insatiable feeding trough we can afford all the above at no extra cost to anyone. more importantly we can keep our dignity and look after our own.

Let's start the fight back with the bureaucrats. Remember when your local election candidates start knocking your door to ask the question 'are you going to continue pouring my hard-earned cash into this bottomless pit as we can no longer afford to stay in what are you doing about getting us out?'
