[sasguru]

Mich, can you pass this 'tard your GCSE economics book?

Please do you mind not quoting the Cretin? He's on my ignore list (like atW) and I've no inclination to read his garbage.

When you lower interest rates this wakes up the invisible free money dragon

I thought the plan was to breed Unicorns and sell them to Chinese millionaires?

[Platypus]

Ecce, in pictura er puella.

Ha ha! That's the same Latin course that I did!

est puella

"Ecce Romani" IIRC

You're being too hard on him. You need people on here like that to show the financial state of mind of the average person in the UK.

After all, the majority of people believe Gordon is the best man to tackle the recession.

[EternalOptimist]

Indeed.

I've found it comes in very useful.

I name all my variables in Latin.

i like this game.

And what would CAmeron do any differently to Gordon?

The issue is we should not be here in the first place.

Ah, I was going to ask you that in the Ask Brillo thread.

It's funny how people always cite Y2K as an example of unnecessary panic about a non-existent problem, rather than an (almost unique) example of preparation and organisation coming together to avert a genuine problem.

Because nothing major happened at the stroke of the Millennium, everyone thinks there was never a problem in the first place and that that must apply to depression, climate change and the end of oil as well.

Y2K should be held up as a shining example of how we should-have-handled/should-be-preparing-for these upcoming disasters.

Well the Italian companies made no provision at all for Y2k and came out none the worse.

That is unfair. I suppose I will have to say something like "Cameron would visit more gay bars".......
