  1. >One government insider said the OBR meeting was “like trying to read the manual after you’ve broken the thing”

    Pretty accurate.

    Could also say crashing your car when driving like a lunatic. Totally denying you drove like a lunatic. Then getting your mechanic to save your skin. BOE is the mechanic in this example.

  2. We are truly witnessing, in real time, the most inept and hopeless government this country has ever had to endure.

  3. You’d think they were going there to learn a few lessons.

    I suspect they’re going there to threaten it to change it’s report to something more to their liking.

  4. Quote of the week….so far:

    > “If the prime minister continues to prioritise saving her face over saving people’s homes, Tory MPs must join Labour in calling for parliament to be recalled…”

  5. SHE will lecture THEM in that meeting explaining how THEY do not understand what budget responsibility ACTUALLY means.

    You just wait…

  6. Imagine your job being to be a total specialist in economics then having to go to a meeting and explain to someone who has ultimate power in making economic decisions why they’ve just decided to cripple the country
