Clegg carefully spends £18.60/kg on cheese

Anyone catch Nick Clegg on the Channel 4's The Political Slot last week going on about how prices are all going up. He illustrated how this hits people on "ordinary incomes" by buying some Cheddar cheese, at £18.60/kg ...

Clegg's cheese 


... from a posh cheese shop.

Clegg ends the program saying the LibDems would "make sure Government spends your money as carefully as you would spend it yourself" - yep, just like Nick carefully buys £18.60/kg Cheddar when my local shop sells it at £5.36/kg (but not wrapped in grease-proof paper)!

Mind you, one has to admire his taste in cheese.

Montgomery's cheddar - yum!

Necessities have become so expensive! (#2)

I do sympathise with Mr. Clegg. One can't find a decent bottle of port port now much under £60!

Isn’t there a cheese called Pantysgawn?
