How much should banks cut rates? 11:20am on 07 Nov 2008 Do we have state controlled media in this county now?! Looking at all the newspaper headlines this morning blaming the 'bad, greedy bankers' for not passing on rate cuts made me wonder how free our press really is. GB and his government must have influential friends! They know the sums don't match but they want 'the masses' to blame someone other than them. And all this media tosh about GB being a great leader in all our financial turmoil - it's so ridiculous, how / why are the public buying it?!!
Obama shackled by debt 11:50am on 05 Nov 2008 Good points in your article - not much real room for manoeuver for the new guy. There's a lot of euphoria today about Obama's victory but I can't help but wonder if he can deliver the 'change' everyone's expecting.... especially as he comes to the helm at a very difficult time. At least the euphoria of Labour's '97 win came at a convenient point in the economic cycle! Good luck Obama (I mean that sincerely but... you're gonna need it!)
BAE's ethical lapses 11:02am on 06 May 2008 Everyone with a moral conscience knows it's wrong to sell arms to countries with a dubious Human Rights record. Many people, such as myself, would include Saudi Arabia as one of those countries so can we drop all this guff about 'local business practices' please! What we have here is a classic whitewash from this enquiry which is nothing less that i'd expect. I hope we don't regret some of these arms deals in the future!
