WITH the Oscar ceremony coming up Prime Minister David Cameron has announced his favourite film is Lawrence of Arabia.

An apt choice, as his party have turned many parts of Britain into a barren desert.

His deputy Nick Clegg lists Kung Fu Panda as his favourite flick. Pandas are a rare and endangered species - by May so will the Liberal Democrats.

Let's look at some more of the Government's celluloid all-time greats.

The Day the Earth Stood Still - ever since the Coalition was formed in 2010 nothing has moved.The promised 'cough up now, prosper later' has not materialised (unless you are top of the income spectrum).

In the Heat of the Night - you won't get much heat under the Tories. Heating bills are rocketing and the Tories refuse to freeze energy bills.In the meantime,the Tories plan is to freeze you.

Room at the Top - not under a coalition Government. The bedroom tax was an idea born to steal more money from the poor. Under the Tory-led coalition there is no room at the top.

Back to the Future - we all love a bit of nostalgia but do the Tories have to recreate pay scales of times gone by? MPs bagged a pay rise, as did the millionaires but for everyone else it's capped lower than a snake's belly.

Fiddler on the Roof - when it comes to fiddling the dole figures,no-one does it better than the suits at the Department for Work and Pensions.

And, of course, Chicken Run - because theTory chicken David Cameron will do anything to avoid a TV election debate.
