    Think of a number, double it, add 3 noughts...

    Like most of the current UK govts calculations.

    Meanwhile, in other Brexit news, one day Phillip Hammond says there is a cabinet consensus on a transitional deal, the next day someone else from the cabinet says no, we'll be setting the dogs on all foreigners at midnight on 31st March 2019.

    Either way, the dogs will be getting their breakfast.

    Saw the headline and thought it was how much debt QPR still had. Glad to see it is the whole country in the red and not just my club, goes to show anyone can make a hash of it when it comes to money.

    What happened to austerity? Are we still taking benefits away from disabled folk and that?

    Yes, we are. A neighbour of mine, 63 years old, suffering from phlebitis of the legs, unable to stand for long periods, has just been reassessed and passed fit for work. He was a bricklayer by trade. His Sickness Benefit has been stopped pending appeal.

    Meanwhile, the health care professionals treating pweople like my neighbour have had below inflation pay rises (pay cuts, in other words), every year for the past 8 years. But according to multi-millionaire David Cameron, it is selfish to call for an end to austerity.
