BRITAIN is heading towards hard times. Experts predict that the cost of living is set to soar in the spring, with huge increases in the price of energy, food and clothing. Along with planned tax rises, the average household is set to find itself £2000 a year worse off. And as we Britons tighten our belts, our high streets will see a boom in the number of Pound Shops.
These wonderful retail outlets are Aladdin’s caves of treasure, selling everything from unusually branded dog food and shampoos that look like Head and Shoulders but aren’t to biscuits with Arabic writing on the back … all for a quid an item!
But who will staff our new Pound Shops? Just like political parties, these magical stores require special kinds of people to take control, to make them function properly and to ensure that they provide exactly what the cash-strapped Great British public needs. So who better to take on the mantle of Pound Shop Manager than the current leaders of our political parties
