		<description>Bertie doesn&#039;t deliver speeches. He reads prepared papers. 

When he was Finance Minister, he was unaware of changes in Stamp Duty, as was obvious when he tried to cover up his tissue of lies about the cash gifts he got to pay for the pad he was renting for his mistress, Celia Larkin. 
He said it was to pay Stamp Duty!
Remember? 
He didn&#039;t even realise that no Stamp Duty is payable on rented property.

And this was our Finance Minister, self-styled accountant.

Now he is Prime Minister and he still can&#039;t put an original sentence together.

In fact, the last time I remember him saying something original was when he lost his rag and said that he was not going to allow Willie Walsh buy Aer Lingus to enrich himself!

Presumably, he felt that nay potential buyer should pay over a whopping dividend to him to pay for his mistress, like Don Charleone, his adored model of political rectitude!

When is he going?

The man is a total fool - and dangerous.</description>
