Does Kate only own ONE pair of shoes?

Yeah Liz, sure, why not?

Quote:

Just what is it about Kate and her £185 pair of LK Bennett nude patent courts? Perhaps she bought a dozen pairs of the Sledge Court Shoe, first produced in 2009, as she loved them so much? Perhaps they are such good value and never scuff.

Quote:

In the more recent photos, Kate is wearing the patent version — which means she definitely has at least a pair to wear and a pair to air.

I'm sure the Paul Foot nomination is in the post...

Quote:

So what is wrong with Kate endlessly showcasing a High Street shoe? Well, my feeling is it’s her job to surprise us, and showcase up-and-coming British talent.

So what's wrong with Liz Jones endlessly churning out the kind of bilge Loose Women would be embarrassed to associate themselves with? Well, it's my feeling that it's her job to surprise us, and showcase up-and-coming British journalistic talent, rather than making anyone who reads her articles feel like Ronald Lacey at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Remember the flak Labour attracted for making Alan Sugar a peer so he could advise on matters of business? Seems they missed a trick here, Cameron could do worse than to get Liz "Market Solutions" Jones on the case:

Quote:

I’ve heard the predictable argument that, in a recession, Kate should not splash the cash. This is wrong. This nation will only become great again if we buy British, and Kate’s job is to inspire and ignite our passion for fashion (remember retail is the UK’s biggest employer), not bore us with Bennetts.

I'm sure the IMF will be having a stern word with Kate as we speak. I would go on, but I'm not sure I even can. Instead, I'll end with something that doesn't get said very often, namely that sometimes we don't give Mail readers enough credit.

Quote:

Liz, when you marry into the Royal Family you can show the rest of the world how to do everything better than anyone, but until you do keep your advice to yourself. Catherine looks fabulous and obviously these shoes are comfortable.

Kate should patronise Aruna Seth, a 30-year-old British-born designer who makes wonderful shoes that hover around the £600 to £800 mark. I love her Lynn strappy sandals in silver, £625, worn by sister Pippa.

Which you can't afford if you're as fucking skint as you always say you are.

I think you will find that a mention in a national newspaper will secure sufficient discount for even the most potless journo to afford them.

In other words "Kate doesn't spend enough on her clothes like a real princess should. Like I, Liz Jones would...I should be a princess, why wasn't I born a princess like I should have been...like I deserved to have been. Why couldn't I marry a prince so I'd never have to work to get the things I want? I WANT TO MARRY A PRINCE!! WAAAAAAAA!!"

Fuck the fuck off you pointless awful thing.

Oh man I can't wait to either get made redundant from my worthless public sector job, or failing that receive my gold-plated pension. Shoes that hover round the £600-£800 mark? I'm all over 'em.

If only I was an asylum seeker, I'd be wearing them now. And another pair on my hands.

And so would all your children, essential for those long trips to the private boarding school in your free paid-for-by-our-taxes 4x4.

In which Liz solves the problem of a stagnant housing market:

Quote:

We need a new law to say that if a person is decreasing the size of an existing loan, then it should be granted. Automatically. And we need it quick.

By next Tuesday, if at all possible, when I exchange on my sale, and shortly thereafter become homeless.

and also shows how banks got us into this mess to start with:

Quote:

In summary: I want to get rid of my £1 million-plus interest-only mortgage, and instead take out a £200,000 repayment loan.

Somebody, somewhere in a bank/building society gave this infantile, unskilled bint a £1+ million interest only mortgage ffs

Oh, and buying a house for her sister seems to have come back and bitten her on her bony arse:

Quote:

Not the chattering classes of the media elite, but those of us who have made a mistake. Or got divorced. Or been made redundant. Or developed cancer. Or have just been hoodwinked and tricked by members of their family.

Liz Jones there, demonstrating the sound grasp of economics that made her such a top fashion journalist. How very dare Halifax refuse to lend her money when she's got no evidence of savings!

I think the screening process has been tightened up to eliminate sperm thieves and unstable mentalists - after the last unfortunate event, y'know.
