Lord Young sacked .... for what?

So Lord Young has been sacked...

...who cares? ...who even knew he had  a job?  I didn't...

Anyway, the fact of his sacking is less interesting than the reason for his sacking.

He was sacked because he told the truth, or at least a truth, one the Conservatives do not want exposed. Where George Osborne claims the recession is so deep that we were in danger of bankruptcy, our economy is as shaky as Greece or Ireland and that we have to destroy the public sector to survive, Lord Young believes that it's a "so-called recession" and that people have "never had it so good".

So, by Lord Young's analysis, it's not as desperate as George Osborne is saying, we do not have to cut so deep and so fast, and we do not have to attack public services with such enthusiasm in order to survive.....

Thta's not what the Tories want you to believe...

...so he has to go....
