Un Suited Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Britains economic woes are thanks, in no small part, to the last Labour government. They did the same to Greece, Spain, Germany, France, USA, Italy, etc, etc, etc too presumably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert_Baehr Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Of course they did! - It was their turn! The Tories have had it their own way for long enough. Maggie can't be allowed to take the blame credit for everything which goes wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmith Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 The Office of National Statistics have confirmed Britain is in the longest double dip recession since records began. The government has blamed the weather, the Jubilee, the Eurozone and world events. Some people thought it wouldn't happen but it was predicted as soon as the Tories took over. Never mind, I understand there is some sporting event going on to uplift the nation With a bit of look it will last for decades, the population will decline, housing costs will reduce and people will be much happier not having to work just to keep a roof over their heads.

Light sonic Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 They did the same to Greece, Spain, Germany, France, USA, Italy, etc, etc, etc too presumably. Its a Euro-federalist conspiracy. They simultaniously destroyed their economies on purpose so they can say the solution is full and proper political and fiscal union. (Obviously exclude the US from that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it lasts for decades money will no longer be a means of protection. People will no longer be able to hide themselves away from the reality. Law and order will break down and we shall be in a "survival of the fittest" scenario, rather than a "survival of the fattest wallet" one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it means is the economy isn't growing; it’s not the end of the world, things are still made and sold, money is still spent, life will go one, and may end up better.

And of course it does not matter that many have lost their jobs, families, houses, hope, self respect when you are alright Jack does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light sonic Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 This whole thing is blown way out of proportion anyway...the angst is coming from the modestly well off that are worried that they're going to be, not poor, but a bit less well off, at a level similar to the rest of us.

(Obviously exclude the US from that) The current problems started with US banks lending to people who couldn't afford to repay. It all escalated from that. How EU federalists were responsible for the debts of Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns, etc, maybe you'd like to tell us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not just what was going on in the US that caused Europes problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
