Whatever happened to the Penny Black? Within three weeks the Penny Black will have become the 12 Shilling Dreadful.
That will be the price of a first class stamp from 30th April 2012. 144 times the price of the first ever British stamp.
We are not amused!

I had never heard if this man until he died last year. Last night I came across a tribute compilation of his speeches, television and radio appearances. Very interesting.
I will be searching for more.

When you get access to the chequebook this is what happens
You get the idea, politicians ... I have little time for them. Here's a very good example of why.
Take a look at this article http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/william-hague/9191852/William-Hague-defends-rising-costs-at-his-official-residence.html and then tell me that this man isn't taking the slash out of all of us.
If you follow William Hague on twitter you will quickly see that he is very keen to tell you that he is jetting off here, there and everywhere: it will be first or business class too. He name drops like an elephant drops its dung. Now he's living in a palace that you and I are paying for.
He's an oik from Yorkshire although it looks as if the mucky fine accent he's got comes from having attended public school for a while and then having to be yanked out for some reason.
As an interesting aside for anyone who likes gossip, click through to the articles at the bottom of the link above: nice and sleazy does it. Wonder if anyone goes in through the back door at the palace?
