If you are afraid then don't watch Newsnight.
Ask Guido what he thinks of Newsnight's economic coverageHow did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

Really? Is your country bankrupt then? Are you likely to be out of work soon? going to lose your house?
Sheesh, you can worry about the future all you like, it won't change it. Or you can take stock of all the good things you have in your life right now and enjoy them.
And turn the blardy telly off if its gonna get you down
