“All those who care about Britain’s future should attend the Rally Against Debt” – declared the fearless Toby Young on 13th May.

Taxpayers are sponging off the state and destroying the lives of our children dontcha know? These public subsidies must stop!

Of course we already know Young opted instead to attend a Pirate’s Exhibition at Museum of London Docklands rather than the TPA rally. Now that’s commitment!

But it gets better!

As Political Scrapbook points out:

Toby Young was enjoying free preview tickets to be entertained by a charity which has received £18.9 million of public funding from the Greater London Authority in the last two years.

Wait, he was promoting a rally against debt while enjoying being subsidised at taxpayers’ expense? And while the public will have to pay for tickets to the exhibition in West India Quay, Young and his children went for free.

The Museum of London is also facing cuts in its funding. There’s a debt crisis out there apparently?!

To top it off, some of the people who helped organise it were about to made redundant too.

But that’s ok, just so as long as Toby Young and his kids can enjoy a free lunch (throw in) at taxpayers expense!
