Treasury hires Mr Bean

TS was amused to see that there's a parliamentary meeting due on Wednesday about 'counting the population'. No, we know that's not funny in itself.

But the expert who was due to brief MPs on the Treasury committee looking at the issue was one Charlie Bean of Bank of England fame.

You'll see where we're going. Charlie Bean-counting the population.

Let's hope he's not actually an accountant or he'll have heard that joke a few times before, we'd have thought.
