Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on May 23, 1971)

Happy Birthday, George Osborne! May your celebrations be as balanced and carefully planned as the budgets you once oversaw. Your time at Number 11 Downing Street certainly left a lasting impression—after all, not everyone can make fiscal policy seem almost exciting!

From Tatton to Treasury benches, you've navigated political storms with wit and charm. Whether crunching numbers or debating policies in Parliament, you've always managed to keep things interesting—and occasionally humorous too.

Here's wishing you another year filled with success (and perhaps fewer spreadsheets). Cheers to more memorable moments ahead; may your birthday cake never face austerity measures!
