Stimulating the global economy 12:06pm on 23 Nov 2008 The worrying thing about this "Credit Crunch" it has highlighted that Britain no longer has an economic foundation to support a first world economy, we are not much better than Africa. The contributing factors are that we no longer have a sustainable manufacturing industry to underpin a skilled workforce that can create wealth through export and the like of quality goods. A vast majority of our industry, utilities and municipal function are in foreign hands, meaning that too much money is leaving the country. This “Credit Crunch will leave Britain at the edge of an abyss.

The Tory’s have some need to talk, because it was their party lead by Margaret Thatcher that left us in this predicament., through the rape of British industry .

To draw a horticultural analogy; the good gardener prunes to stimulate new growth, and clears away areas of dead wood and plants that of gone to seed, to plant afresh.
The Tories did none of this they pruned industry, but left it to whither, and when they cleared away old dying industry they left vast areas to go to waste.

We need to start again, we are now in a similar position to Germany after the second world war, which is sad.
Dramatic athletics - but Britain beware 11:04am on 24 Aug 2008 There are a number of things we need to address. We have got to right back to the school sports day and bannish the PC brigade, and have children competing properly so there are winners and losers.

Usain Bolt is a rare natural talent, what about an X factor style TV show to try to unearth talent for maybe 2016.

We have young offenders in prisons who should not be there because they have lost there way through very poor family life and parenting, could these people be asked to volunteer to go on sports programs, where they are put on rigerous regimes, and just maybe someone may pop out of the top.
