Tooth fairy drops in on Number 10

A girl of six from Salford wrote to the Prime Minister offering to give him the £1 she received from the tooth fairy to help pay off the national debt.

Niamh Riley, a pupil at Moorfield school in Irlam, told David Cameron it was 'to pay for lots of jobs'.

Mr Cameron mentioned the offer in his conference speech on Wednesday, saying to the Chancellor George Osborne 'there we are George, nearly there'.

However, he sent the pound coin back and told Niamh to treat herself.

Or she could 'save it for a rainy day', he said.

No point in saving that £ when the interest is square -root of not a lot. Niamh could have asked the Tooth Fairy to put a spell on David Cameron, so that he included the CQC in his damp squib AKA the 'disposable barbeque' of the Quango's.
