Oh Noes, UK Chancellor Has to Cancel Vacation Too :(

Chancellor George Osborne, once he found out that PM David Cameron left Tuscany just a few days after North London was overtaken by riots, "immediately" left California to go back and watch London and Manchester burn. (And observe its Diesel stores get their windows broken.) When will anyone ever get a long foreign holiday??? Not as long as angry jobless yobbos exist.

In other news, Angela Merkel is in the Alps, Nicolas Sarkozy is in the French Riviera, and Nick Clegg just got back from Spain and France. (This and many more photos here.)

Breaking, Europeans all vacation at the same time.

@Tulletilsynet: And maybe August will also replace May as the most rioty month.

"Europeans" might do but the Brits don't.

@LondonLee: And yet "bank holidays" every other Monday!

Are the Gap stores ok?

@Ames
Don't mind the Gap.

@Tulletilsynet
All those Gap jeans just make me think of world leaders on vacation.

Merkel's not on vacation–she's mobilizing her war elephants to solve the Italian debt crisis.

I'm all for a bit of class war but I think people are allowed to go on holiday now and then, even if they are Tories.

@LondonLee
Next you'll be coming out against the ritual blaming of current officeholders.

LondonLee (#922)

Nah, I blame Maggie Thatcher for everything.
