Germaine Greer Vs. Al Murray

[gavin]

on Have I got News For You right now....


they were just arguing over the recent reduction in VAT.

Ms Greer couldnt understand why the net benefit is actually only 21p in £10 as Al stated......and not 25p as she said it was.


now maybe its just me, but i find the situation of the uber-feminist being out witted by the pub landlord very very funny and very ironic


back to your sinks ladies, and dont forget to bring me my beer!

Hmmmm, that wasn't the way I read that conversation - although it surprised me that noone had managed to work the 2.1% thingy out for themselves.

She did look a total tit talking about Bugwatch though - and Al Murray isn't anywhere near as funny when he isn't in his Pub Landlord persona.

well i only caught the end of it, maybe i didnt get the whole picture. though he new the facts he wasnt explaining it very clearly and she was insisting it was 2.5%


anyway, not wishing to start a political debate but it aint gonna get me spending.......take my mortgage payments, weekly shop and utility bills back to 2005 levels and then we'll be talking.

People who are good with words arent necessarily good with numbers.
