Gordon Brown's Spin Spend Spins Out of Control

Today's Sunday Times reported that the UK government spending on "special advisers", aka spin-doctors has increased by 40% over the past three years.  The annual cost is now £6.3m.  The cost of Gordon Brown's spin team has risen by £350,000 to £1.75m.

This is our money the government is spending,  sugar-coating unpopular policies to force them down the electorate's throat. Political classes have become the masters, not the servants of the people!  The government and other politicos incredulously think that the people of this great country of ours are fools and don't know what's good for them. Let's hoodwink them, they will thank us in the end, or so the thinking goes.

But guess what? The jig is up for Mr Brown and his cronies, the people know best and see through the smoke screens. Why else would Labour party's support languish at its lowest level since the records began?
