Standard class, first class and Osborne class

WITH all the precision of a badly outsourced Swiss clock, I stand at the end of each working day staring at an empty pair of railway tracks wondering what shit excuse they’re going to come up with this time.

It is 6.37pm, and as the train isn’t here when it’s supposed to be, it means I am going to miss my connection to God’s own country and not be anywhere near my scratcher before 8.30pm.

When it does, eventually, arrive, the hugely over-crowded two-carriage East Midlands chugger hauling the hordes from Manchester to Liverpool resembles some kind of sub-continenta­l charabanc.

That there are c***s in this world is of course beyond doubt. But then there’s Gideon Osborne.

And you’d be hard pressed to find a bigger c*** than that.
