Socialist Nicola Sturgeon steps out in �179 Barbour jacket and �130 Hunter wellies

While David Cameron buys �12.99 ASDA boots to look like a man of the people

It was perhaps a shock to see Nicola Sturgeon's outfit as she visited Port Elphinstone near Inverurie after the area was hit by floods.

Hundreds of people were evacuated in Aberdeenshire after the Rivers Dee, Don and Ythan burst their banks in the early hours of Friday.

Nicola Sturgeon went to visit, wearing what is known as the countryside outfit of the rich, a toff uniform perhaps.

The First Minister was looking very sophisticated in a Barbour jacket and Hunter wellington boots.

The jacket she was wearing is this Barbour international number, and it costs a pricey �179.

If you want to steal her style, you're out of luck, as it is currently sold out.

Her wellies appear to be the "Women's Balmoral Lady Neoprene Wellington Boots", at �130.

She either keeps her wellingtons very clean, or they are fresh out of the box.

Perhaps this means David Cameron needn't have worried about his image when he went to visit those affected by the floods.

He wore a pair of cheap wellington boots last year as he apparently only had a pair of green Hunter wellies.

The Prime Minister was worried that people would think he was posh.

He was also spotted in York in December in a pair of �13 value 'Countrywide' wellies.

Cameron instead wore a pair of �12.99 ASDA boots and was mocked because they looked brand new.

Socialist Sturgeon has no such worries, evidently, and looked very smart in her �309 outerwear.

Nicola Sturgeon has replied, and clarified that her jacket was actually a Christmas present.

We don't have word yet on her (very nice) boots.

I mean loving hell. Other than "If Socialist how have nice things" crap how are they calling Nicola Sturgeon a socialist?

I think the way to deal with this is to just attack Osborne's perceived competence by making him out to be penny-wise but pound-foolish. "He cuts a �200m flood defence project in Leeds and next year the town suffers �whatever in flood damage, he cuts social care budgets by �x and then hospitals costs increase by �n*x." Don't go on about how the cuts are harmful, talk about how they're stupid and actually making the country's financial position worse. You could easily tie that into "he's missed every target he's set himself, he's borrowed more money than every Labour government put together" etc. etc.

I think that messaging could work in 1997 - when the impact of intra-Tory mudslinging was at an all-time high - but it would be hard to reconcile today with an attempt to rally with the NHS junior doctor's strike or, for that matter, any attempt to corral MPs into shutting up about how austerity is harmful or how whole-system reform is necessary. In particular the MP for Islington North.

Leeds-floods-wise, well...

quote:

Jeremy Corbyn: In 2011, a �190 million flood defence project on the River Aire in Leeds was cancelled by the Government on cost grounds. One thousand homes and businesses in Leeds were flooded in recent weeks, and the Government are still committed only to a scaled-down version of the project, worth a fraction of its total cost. This from a Prime Minister who claimed that �money was no object� when it came to flood relief. When he or his Secretary of State meets the Leeds MPs and Judith Blake, the leader of Leeds City Council, in the near future, will he guarantee that the full scheme will go ahead to protect Leeds from future flooding?

The Prime Minister: First of all, let me make one point before answering the right hon. Gentleman�s points in detail. It is worth putting on record before we get on to flood defence investment�and I will cover it in full�that this was the wettest December for over 100 years, and actually in Leeds and in Yorkshire it was the wettest December ever on record. That is why rivers in Yorkshire flooded, including the Aire in Leeds, which was a metre higher than it has ever been in its history.

No flood defence schemes have been cancelled since 2010. The investment in flood defences was �1.5 billion in the last Labour Government, �1.7 billion in the Government I led as a coalition Government, and will be over �2 billion in this Parliament. It has gone up and up and up. It has gone up because we run an economy where we are able to invest in the things that our country needs. And one more point�let us not forget this. We inherited the Darling plan for our economy. That was a plan for a 50% cut in capital spending, and DEFRA was not a protected Department. We protected that flood spending and we increased it�something Labour would not have done.

Jeremy Corbyn: Of course the rainfall was excessive, of course the river levels were high, but the Prime Minister has still not answered the question on the Leeds flood protection scheme�I will give him an opportunity to do so in a moment. In 2014, Cumbria County Council applied for funding for new schemes in Keswick and Kendal�both were turned down and both areas flooded again in the last few weeks. Does the Prime Minister believe that turning down those schemes was also a mistake?

The Prime Minister: We are spending more on flood defence schemes and stacking up a whole series of schemes that we will spend more on. Let me make this point to the right hon. Gentleman: if he is going to spend �10 billion on renationalising our railways, where is he going to find the money for flood defences? The idea that this individual would be faster in responding to floods when it takes him three days to carry out a reshuffle is frankly laughable. Since I walked into the Chamber this morning, his shadow Foreign Minister resigned and his shadow Defence Minister resigned�he could not run anything.

Jeremy Corbyn: It is very strange that when I have asked a question about Leeds flood defence, then on Cumbria flood defence, the Prime Minister still seems unable to answer. Can he now tell us if there is going to be funding for those schemes?

In October, Professor Colin Mellors, the head of the Yorkshire regional flood and coastal committee, warned the Government about funding cuts leading to flood defences in Yorkshire being �formally discontinued� in the future. Would that also be a mistake? Can the Prime Minister now tell us: is he going to reverse the cuts in the defences that have taken place to make sure that those cities and areas are protected in the next round of floods which will no doubt come?

The Prime Minister: As I have told the right hon. Gentleman, we have increased and continued to increase the spending on flood defences. We are spending more in this Parliament, and for the first time it is a six-year spending perspective, which is �2.3 billion extra on flood defences�money that would not be available if we trashed the economy in the way that he proposes. Of course, after every incident of flooding, you go back and look at what you have spent and what you have built, you look at what you are planning to spend and what you are planning to build, and you see what more can be done. The head of the Environment Agency was absolutely clear that he had the money necessary to take the action that was necessary, but we can only do that with a strong economy�an economy that is growing, where more people are in work and more people are paying taxes. We have got the strength to solve this problem of floods, and we will do it in a proper way.

Jeremy Corbyn: The Prime Minister has not answered on Leeds, he has not answered on Cumbria, and he has not answered on the warning from Professor Mellors.

Like the Prime Minister, last week I met people in York who had been affected by flooding. I met a young couple, Chris and Victoria, whose home had been flooded over Christmas�[Interruption.] It was not very funny for them. This young couple lost many of their possessions, including photos and children�s toys and school work, and they have the foul stench of floodwater in their home, as have many families all over this country. They are asking all of us wholly legitimate questions. Why was the insufficient pump capacity at the Foss barrier�which, again, we were alerted to in 2013 by a Government report�not dealt with or the pumps upgraded? That meant that people in York were flooded and their possessions and homes severely damaged. Those people want answers from all of us, and in particular from the Prime Minister.

The Prime Minister: I have the greatest sympathy with anyone who has been flooded. We have to do what it takes to get people and communities back on their feet. That is why we have put record sums in more quickly to help communities in Cumbria, in Lancashire and now in Yorkshire. We will continue to do that. Specifically on the question of the Foss pumps, that was about to be tendered for extra investment, and that investment will now go ahead, because the money is there.

I say to the right hon. Gentleman that we are putting in the money and doing so more quickly, and the military got involved more quickly. For that couple who got flooded, we are also doing something that previous Governments have talked about but never achieved, which is to have an insurance scheme�Flood Re�so that every single household can get insured. That has not been done before.

Have lessons been learned? Yes, they have. Are there more lessons to learn? There always are, but frankly we do not need a lecture from Malta from the right hon. Gentleman.

Jeremy Corbyn: The reality is that flood defence scheme after flood defence scheme has been cancelled, postponed or cut, many more homes have been flooded and too many lessons have been ignored. Why cannot the Prime Minister support our calls for a co-ordinated, cross-party approach to flooding that looks at everything, including upland management, making people�s homes more flood resilient, and more properly funded protection schemes?

Does the Prime Minister at least agree that the fire and rescue service, which has done such a great job over the past few weeks in all parts of this country, should now be given a statutory duty to deal with floods, to help us through any crisis that might occur in the future?

The Prime Minister: I think the best I can say is that when the right hon. Gentleman has worked out how to co-ordinate his own party, perhaps he could come and have a word with me.

On the issue of a statutory duty, everybody knows what they have to do when floods take place. That is why there was such a magnificent response from the emergency services, the fire services and the emergency rescue services. They have our backing to do the vital work. We will go on investing in flood defences. We will increase the money we are spending on flood defences, because we have got a strong economy and a strong country that can back the action that is needed.

I don't know. Does Corbyn have some deep-seated moral objection to the idea of narrow cost-benefit analyses (which the government of the day might, therefore, actually be able to fail), rather than hypothetical bipartisan holistic approaches that - by the nature of all nebulous, holistic solutions - concede the judgment of its success to the incumbent government?

There's a certain tendency in the left (hi, SWP!) for a bunch of white dudes to take over and start shunting aside minority perspectives as a distraction from The Cause. Unironically using the term 'SJW' is a bit of a red flag (and not the good kind of red flag :ussr:

), and while it may well not be what you meant, it creates the impression that you're grumpy about your party having to listen to all those uppity gays/blacks/women rather than focusing on the stuff that affects you as well.

To be fair, a distressing number of people concerned with any particular problem at all are grossly uninterested in its economic basis. if we hang all the crims then there'll not be crimes any more, etc etc.

Though I imagine we're all actually agreeing that considering equality issues without considering wider economic issues is bad and discussing economic issues without considering equality issues is also bad. The latter is what I generally take "brocialist" to mean, though given it's been floating around the internet for a while it's probably in the process of mutating into something meaningless and terrible, as does pretty much any word/concept/meme the internet gets its hands on.

Take wellies, for example. A really good pair of Hunter wellies cost �130. But an affordable pair of wellies, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the soles gave out, cost about �12.99. Those were the kind of wellies Cameron always bought, and wore until the cameras went away.

But the thing was that good wellies lasted for years and years. A Scot who could afford �130 had a pair of wellies that'd still be keeping her feet dry in ten years' time, while the Tory who only bought cheap wellies would have spent a �259.80 on wellies in the same time and would still have his dick in a pig when nobody was looking.

This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Wellies' theory.
