This is 75billion that does not belong to the government. Effectively stolen from savers and investors. A more visible protest is due soon as I am sure not everyone will remain quiet.<BR/><BR/>There should be accountability over what is bought with this money and with clear information made public as to how they think it will directly help the economy.mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05772374031938763566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2948538160252327076.post-27749824484525692792009-03-05T20:54:00.000+00:002009-03-05T20:54:00.000+00:00Peter - you have to vote to throw the rascals out....Peter - you have to vote to throw the rascals out.

Blair/Brown were always hot air from the start. But why have the opposition complied since day 1 with the financial services fiasco? Conservatives created "Big Bang" in 1986 which is the starting line for the present troubles - deregulating the banks and making spivs of them all. Who on earth can we vote for? I am developing some contempt for my fellow citizens, who tolerate this abominable deceit.

What did you expect?<BR/><BR/>As each day passes I become ever more convinced that they have no intention of even trying to win the next election. This is all about stretching out the good times (for themselves and their wage packets) for as long as it lasts while torching everything else in their wake. Within 4 years they'll be back promising a return to the good times and offering a respite from the awful Tories who have presided over a bankrupt country. Forgetting of course who put us in that state... but you know how weak willed the British voter is!<BR/><BR/>I can see myself quietly slipping away one night on a French fishing boat before too much longer.John Pickworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02166443099429490782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2948538160252327076.post-11334825116356149292009-03-05T15:53:00.000+00:002009-03-05T15:53:00.000+00:00Gordon Brown will go down as the worst chancellor ...Gordon Brown will go down as the worst chancellor and prime minister in UK history. As for chump Darling, he isn't worth talking about because the guy is just an empty cipher for Brown. And anyone who says Brown was great because 'he created ten years of economic growth and stability', is going to really regret that statement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2948538160252327076.post-33199476567710072292009-03-05T15:19:00.000+00:002009-03-05T15:19:00.000+00:00Re Crash Gordon's Golden Rule - dumped just a...Re Crash Gordon's Golden Rule - dumped just as he did with gold itself, where he saw what he thought was a golden opportunity & dumped it unceremoniously.
