Boris is in trouble again.  He’s committed the capital crime of suggesting that North British university students shouldn’t get free education courtesy of the English taxpayer.

The press are in a frenzy as Boris provides the only entertainment in an otherwise dull conference and people start demanding that he apologise for suggesting that North Britain is subsidised by the English.

Before I go on, a reminder of last years figures:
Scottish budget defecit – £11.3bn
North Sea oil receipts – £7bn
Net subsidy – £4.3bn

I hope Boris refuses to apologise.  He is speaking up for his constituents and his fellow countrymen.  He is merely echoing what more and more English people are saying themselves and for that he should be commended.  If he’s going to get criticised every time he speaks out about something that isn’t party policy then it’s about time he stood for the leadership because, to be honest, Cameron is a bloody liability.

Boris for Prime Minister!
