Friday 25 September 2009 6:33pm on 25 Sep 2009 Gordon Brown. He's responsible.
What spending would you cut? 5:30pm on 24 Apr 2009 What the government needs to do is to compare itself to an entity that is governed by rational decision making. A household or a small business, for example. In a household, luxuries are dispensed with, holidays are taken at home. A business cuts overtime, temporary staff, delays investment.

This will be difficult at first but could really catch on as a radically new way of running the nation's finances.
Wednesday, 18 February, 2009 00:19am on 19 Feb 2009 Peston goes to Newcastle had the feel of those auditions for Big Brother or the X factor. It definitely should be an annual fixture from now on.

Even better, BBC3 could put Peston and a carefully selected group of Rock shareholders in a televised house in search of a proper verdict on just how miserable those who've lost their life savings are.
Rothschild "won't back down" 5:11pm on 21 Oct 2008 Rothschild is an idiot to have escalated this battle of the handbags.
City pays for Bradford & Bingley 10:01am on 29 Sep 2008 Is the FSCS now wiped out? I see the govt have guaranteed it. What is the liability there and what happens when the next bailout is needed?
British banks shorted 10:03am on 24 Sep 2008 1. The Buffet deal is structured in the way many are saying Paulson should be using for his mother of all bailouts. Using preferred stock and equity (warrants in Goldman's case).

2. Crisis in Washington, PM travels to New York. Par for the course. No talk of a UK bailout which should be done simultaneously.
