Chancellor holds court at Cardiff City Stadium


Quite bizarrely, Alistair Darling, the Chancellor of the Exchequer chose today to announce how his Labour party would reign in public spending to reduce the record deficit should - and that's a big should - they win the next General Election.


Of all places to do it, it turned out to be at Cardiff City's new stadium. Maybe Cardiff City's mountainous debts and the financial prudence of Peter Ridsdale were his inspiration points ... or maybe not!!


His speech commenced with words of praise for change in Wales and he added, "And this change is symbolised by this magnificent new stadium – and the early success in this first season here of Cardiff City. "

Scriptwriters eh? Bet he didn't have an effing clue!
