Smith thought she'd be cleared 4:31pm on 30 Mar 2009 Jacqui Smith,Hazel Blears et al.............lame ducks-crash's puppets (or should that be muppets ? ).They have the personality of a garden gnome.......come to think of it,the one with the fishing rod.Always on the look out for an "easy"steal.
How Dunfermline fell 4:23pm on 30 Mar 2009 like others of its ilk-it fell because of poor management-or to put it more directly-MISMANAGEMENT-simple as.
Smith thought she'd be cleared 3:08pm on 30 Mar 2009 well..........the silent majority are almost deafening on this one !It's quite clear from an almost unanimous public that we do not trust our MP's any more and that all confidence in Crash,darling darling and our Jacqui(whose mouth butter would't melt in) evaporated many moons ago.

They are two faced,conniving,grabbing and less than clean in their dealings-complete joke if truth be known.Living on borrowed time(like everything else they claim to have).......the sword of Damacles draws ever nearer.It's about time someone put the boot in.
Smith thought she'd be cleared 12:25pm on 30 Mar 2009 The Brown situation is typical of what's wrong with politics-it's used as a one stop gravy train to squeeze the last penny from the public purse.It's scandalous...........too much cronyism and what's in it for me culture.The ideal of being proud to serve the public went years ago.....they don't give a damn about you and I as long as their cosy little nests remain lined.You can't trust any of them with their mealy mouthed comments and and pomposity.You could sack 90% of them and this country would be a far better place.It's all about greed and hanging on to power and privelege at all costs.......never mind who you step on.
Gilts and innocence 4:22pm on 27 Mar 2009 me thinks monitors "knock off" at 4 bells !
Gilts and innocence 4:12pm on 27 Mar 2009 Additionally-employers are forcing pay cuts or freezes through at a time when inflation is still at 3%.You can do the maths-it's not rocket science.Once that pay cut bites-you never get it back.Yes-I think we're in for a much rougher ride than anybody dare admit.You heard it here.

Crash and darling,darling will be well gone when the **** hits the fan.So will merv the swerve,mandypants et al.
Gilts and innocence 4:05pm on 27 Mar 2009 Ref:183 citygambler

Maybe a valid point but nobody wants to borrow again-indeed that many people are struggling with mounting debt-the last thing they want is another loan.Class structure still pervades in this country and I know many thousands took out equity when their house was at its highest value.Foolish indeed but it was allabout keeping up with the jones in white collar/middle class suburbia.These same people are now finding out the true cost of their borrowings.I should know-where I live,thousands of new houses have been built but you never see the people in the local pubs and clubs-reason ? they can't afford to go out,however their consumeristic tendencies have fuelled sales at tesco,asda,sainsburys et al for years.These same people are now touring round the minor supermarkets or buying own brand goods to economise.Only 2 adult working households can afford this.The people on lower incomes haven't got a prayer unfortunately to keep up the pace in this ever increasingly aspirational society.They are at the mercy of the gods.............
Gilts and innocence 3:24pm on 27 Mar 2009 sorry JD6969-comment wrongly attributed ! just realised-God I must be tired.

Think I need a beer or two !

Still-the answer is valid.
Gilts and innocence 2:57pm on 27 Mar 2009 Ref172 CA55ANDRA

Probably 'cos theres been that many shennanigans going on,that the courts would be booked up for years to come !

The clever ones always get away............and the FSA wouldn't dare to delve into this situation too closely for fear of what they might find.The odd scapegoat token gesture will suffice for them no doubt.
Gilts and innocence 2:42pm on 27 Mar 2009 Given that I work in a rapidly declining steel industry-be warned.Activity is at its lowest for many,many years.The industry is unsustainable in the present climate being approx 50% down on activity but even worse-margins have collapsed and every home grown tonne of steel is being sold at a big loss.Expect massive redundancies soon.I myself have been made redundant.My point is that any downturn in our industry is a pre-cursor of events about to unfold in the UK economy.The news is indeed very grim unfortunately.The manufacturers are fighting for survival as are the stockists-there will be more casualties.This government isn't bothered.They are prepared to let us all fester.
