Data released today showed that public sector net borrowing rose to £14.8 billion in September, the highest ever level of borrowing on record for the month, increasing from £8.7 billion a year ago. Gordon’s big and bloated government is overspending by £493 million a day or £20 million an hour, 24 hours a day, every day

Unbelievable.

It will be painful rebalancing our books.

There are going to be some very hard times ahead.

I note Labour do this EVERY time they get in!

The sooner they start another few decades in opposition the better.

Good link, Rich! 

"In 1997 Labour inherited a budget that was actually in balance. After a turbulent decade, the public finances had been brought under control and our income matched our outgoings. But after four years in office Gordon Brown took out the country's credit card and let rip. By the end of the last financial year our annual deficit had ballooned to £90 billion"

Says it all...

Brown is incompetent, completely incompetent.

He is a good bloke,Banjaxx says so.

It's very plain to see that his legacy will be an unmitigated disaster for the citizens of this nation.

His stewardship of the economy as Chancellor and of the nation as Premier has been an object lesson in gross incompetence, fuelled by deluded self-belief all finished off by thinking, so insular, it can only be calibrated on the micro level.

I,m not so sure about the self belief tbh ,Zulu.I think he may be just hoping he can bullsh1t his way through each day as it arrives.He is way out of his depth and I suspect he knows it.His speeches always consist of him reciting or reading a long list of statisitics  because its one of the few things he is capable of doing,and a long list of statistics are a hard thing to argue with as you can make them say just about anything you want to.He is being proected from the electorate and reality in general because he has no way at all of dealing with them.
I dont know if you remember the Brian Walden programme which used to be on ITV at Sunday lunchtime in the 80,s (world at one ??).He used to savage politicians,he even had Maggie completely stuck for an answer once or twice.i would loved to have seen him let loose on Bliar and Brown,He could smell bullsh1t from 100 yards,he would have left them both ready for a home for the bewildered.

Going broke??

Still.....it's not all bad news.....as I feel sure that he knows exactly how much a bottle of champagne and a tin of caviar cost.....

  dont know he is a good bloke or not.. but sure not worse than ours 

and by the way, regardless of govts abilities (I do believe also whatever they do result wont change)  global economic system is going down the drain (except some)..
