Alastair Darling has written to George Osborne demanding that he clarify his economic policies. This is hilarious on so many levels one hardly knows where to begin, especially from a Chancellor who dare not publish his own spending plans. What about that Comprehensive Spending Review, Chancellor?

MEMORANDUM
To: Alastair Darling
From: A Voter
I cannot imagine why you think you are in a position to demand anything of anybody, Mr Darling.
Parliament is prorogued which means that your constitutional, electoral approval is withdrawn. It is presumption on your part to forget that you are no more than a temporary caretaker finance minister, faute de mieux. Kindly know your place.
The only people to whom Mr Osborne is required to explain himself are us. The electorate. We are in charge now.
You are re-applying for your job. I suggest you do not waste time making demands of those with whom you are competing but address yourself to us. You are advised to polish your own application and present it to us, along with your qualifications and CV. Ah, I see we already have that.
Some damn fool in the party probably thought this would be a good idea.......They're losing the plot.
