Pam says quite a lot actually, but will you appreciate her insights?
Pam says ‘Watch out for the budget!’
Sir Keir Starmer has warned us all this week that we should prepare for a painful October where he is promising us a riveting event……well it is for those who enjoy colour coded spreadsheets and find words like ‘fiscal’ exciting! He says he’ll be proffering an Autumn budget so tight that it makes Rudolph Nureyev’s tights look like palazzo pants. It’s all due, allegedly, to a massive black hole in the coffers which the new government has recently inherited from the Tories. I think it’s more likely that they’ve inherited a champagne supernova left over from all those Covid lockdown parties…..which brings me neatly to my next point.
And if that’s not enough……
If you were thinking that the impending budget was bad news of unparalleled proportions, then you’d better dust off your Parkas, because worse still is the worldwide frenzy that has accompanied the announcement of the Official Gallagher Retirement Plan. Coffin dodgers Liam and Noel have apparently buried the hatchet and are reforming Oasis to tour the UK in 2025. The solipsistic pair with personalities a vibrant shade of beige, and whose ambition, in the opinions of some, eclipses their talent, will no doubt take this as an opportunity to continue their petty bickering and mud slinging. It seems no matter how many times you storm off stage, there’s always room for a come back, even for people who should use glue for Chapstick!
I’m officially part of the ‘couldn’t give a s**t’ brigade, so please excuse my cynicism when I point out that next year will mark exactly 30 years since their first number one hit. The lengths some people are prepared to go to in order to achieve their monetary goals are quite extraordinary. It reminds of the story of Erica de Souza from Rio De Janeiro who wheeled her plainly dead Uncle into a bank to take out a 2k loan! Unbelievable!
Pam Says, ‘I’m armed and dangerous! Well, not really, but….’
Sadly though, it would appear that neither Noel or Liam has snuffed it yet…more’s the pity! Although I don’t expect it’ll be very long before they’re firing pistols at 20 paces. If someone could lend me a firearm I’d happily put them both out of their misery right now, and possibly a few others who have been on my hit list for a while.
But seriously folks, don’t worry. I’ve put the shotgun back under the floorboards for the time being and I’m going back to my lentil soup. Let’s face it, the juice has to be worth the squeeze doesn’t it?
