Nanny's New Creche

Nanny and her friends love children, they know that if they get their hands on a young impressionable mind then it is theirs for life.

As such, Nanny spares no expense in ensuring that the young are properly cared for in a nurturing environment.

Well, actually what I mean to say is that Nanny spares no expense when it comes to looking after her own children and the children of her friends and acolytes.

In a particularly lavish display of ostentatious expenditure Nanny's chums in the European Union are building a subsidised creche for their brats, where places will cost more than £20,000 a year.

Those of you needing a small reality check here, should know that the fees at Eton are more or less the same.

The 180 place creche will open next year, for the children of the workers of the general secretariat.

Although the places cost £20K per annum, the workers will only have to pay £3K. The remaining £17K will come out of our pockets.

Well, as Nanny says, children are our future!
