Yes, good critique from Ed, but given that he (and Mrs Balls) were two of the architects of New Labour's Balls up of the economy then it's a bit much listening to him getting all holier-than-thou now.

And lets not forget Labour were the de-regulators as well, only the Tories appreciate quality control, now away with you you Liberal hanger on.

I think you're missing the point. The economy isn't just a little f*cked. It's the whole enchilada. We are facing another recession, Europe going down the pan and the UK, going down with it. :-|

never got out of the last one Skull, but it is a Labour one increased & enhanced by poor Tory policy, personally I think it's where they want us myself, I don't think there is a crisis, they invent one, promote one and bad news travelling does the rest.

If there are so many countries in large debt who lent them the money, it wasn't Bolivia for certain was it, my little mate from what was Yugoslavia pointed this out as well a few weeks ago, I was agasp that he could think on such a level, but he can and that shows you that despite the media portraying these countries as backwards it's a mile from the truth.

The above videos may be in a satirical vain, but they are all you need to educate yourself as to how you are being shafted. We are not “all in this together” far from it. Everyone at the top is laughing at all the dumb saps, now paying for an economic crisis that was not of their making. And to be quite honest. The majority of people in this country are so ignorant. They deserve everything coming their way.

The whole thing was an elaborate con that got out of control. :-|

The unmentionable

Of course, if the eurozone collapses, as some predict, then much of what George Osborne has announced today will become redundant.
The OBR is so worried about this that it says it is impossible to quantify the risk in a meaningful way. But its language is apocalyptic.
"The possibility of a more disorderly outcome represents a significant downside risk to our forecast," it says. "A more serious escalation of the crisis, such as a disorderly default on sovereign debt, could put the global financial system under severe strain leading to tighter credit conditions, further depressing world output and trade."
As Mr Osborne himself admitted in the Commons: "If the rest of Europe heads into recession, it may prove hard to avoid one here in the UK." In other words, if the eurozone crisis worsens, all bets are off.

:shock:
