Title: The real issue facing Britain
Post by: Varche on 28 April 2010, 13:42:16
All the other election stuff pales into insignificance compared with sorting out the UK debts. All of the parties are fighting shy of saying just how they are going to pay back the money. Each party only has plans for about 20% of what is actually needed with the Lib Dems having the best plan % wise.

Make no doubt about it, tough times are ahead. It will be so easy for Britain to follow Greece (despite their public sector already having taken a 10% pay cut). http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8648029.stm

Here is my forecast. Spain will hit the buffers and follow Greece in July 2010. Good time to buy euros

Then in November the same will happen in the UK. Good time to sell your euros!

Well, it seems this campaign is all about who wins the farcical X factor rounds of staged TV appearances than policies.

It's pretty clear that those who are blissfully ignorant of the real world will come down with a bump on or after 7th May, whoever gets into power. ;)

.. at least we didn't join the euro so we can exert some control to pull our finances out ofthe flat spin they are currently in, without becoming just another lap dog for Germany. ;)

Let's just get out of the EU. That will save us (in the 2010/11 financial period) some £7.9 billion – that is £7,900,000,000, or more than £400 for every household.

It will also mean that we won't have to comply with the eurocrats latest wheeze (which could mean us having to shut 14 power plants by 2016).

Labour won't do anything about the EU, nor will cast-iron Dave. The LibDems, of course, want us to be in even closer union with the EU.

Gawd 'elp us. ::) ::)
