David Cameron has audaciously claimed that flagship Tory policy idea “the Big Society” is simply a continuation of God’s work.
Speaking at a Downing Street Easter reception last night, the Prime Minister said:
“Jesus invented the Big Society 2,000 years ago. I just want to see more of it.”
We did a quick search for the term “Big Society” in The Bible and, curiously, it returned no results at all.
Perhaps we shouldn’t take Cameron’s word as Gospel truth then.
