George Osborne rips off Irvine Welsh; Welsh swears

George Osborne delivers speech to Tory conference that echoes the 'choose life' sequence from Trainspotting.
Irvine Welsh responds he would "rather have Fred and Rosemary West quote my characters on childcare than that cunt Osborne quote them on choice".

Telegraph [clearly scared of horrible sweary words]: When asked by Vice for a comment on the speech, Welsh replied: "He’s [Osborne] a f------ t---. I would rant about the p----, but have too much on re. deadlines."

I've always thought it's ironic how he's Scottish

but his name's Welsh.

Did he say 'regarding' or just 're'?

That one little detail changes everything

  Looks like it was via Twitter, so he was constrained by the limits of the form.

more of a sentence than an "x-rated rant"

Rewatched Trainspotting recently

It's aged really well, even makes Ewan McGregor look like a good actor.
