You can't allow inflation to grow like you could in the past eg Harold Wilson because these days that would create a currency shock. i.e. the pound begins to accelerate downwards as inflation picks up, simply because the financial markets are liquid enough to allow everyone to sell. So if inflation picks up they'll raise rates.I'm alright JackComment

The nett effect of his announcement being the price achieved for the UK's gold was EVEN lower that it could have been.
The more i think about it, the more of a genius i think Gaydon really is.
Gaydon for PM, Gaydon for PM (sooner the better IMHO - a couple of years of that fella in charge and we are guranteed no more NuLiebour for at least one whole generation)Comment

Cant be doing that bad
Believe Gordon has just pledged 6 Billion to help educate poor African kids , looks like the Cisco CCNA will be relegated to the level of a GCSE and C# will be like knowing the Sinclair Spectrum inside out
Good time to get out of IT and into something more profitable like making fish sausages or whatever.Comment
