Triple Dip

[proggy]

What else is he meant to do? It is interesting that having indulged ourselves in labour the country has once again gone bust Everyone expects the Tories to sort the mess out. When they cannot do it everyone starts whining again. If you really want the problems to be sorted out then the only answer would be to completely cull the public sector and allow inefficient businesses (including banks) go bust.

By all means get rid of osborne but if you really want the debt wiped away you will not want to hear what would be needed.

I agree with you, he should have cut the bloated public sector NHS etc, even privatize most of the NHS. Problem is he has only tinkered around the edges. I don't want Labour in either I want a decent rational intelligent government with balls.

you really do wear underpants saying "I love Ed Balls"!

Yes, because criticising Osborne means I love Ed Balls. Go read up on fallacy and logic you thick twunt.

[vetran]

Well, we've had a Kingdom run by a king.
And an Empire run by an Emperor (or at least an Empress)
So who's running the country?

A parliament?
Or who cares so long as she has big tits.

Good news for George Osborne as UK avoids triple-dip recession

Paul Owen with live coverage as the Office for National Statistics reveals GDP grew by 0.3% in the first three months of this year

[DimPrawn]

See, the economy is fine after all.

Print £1 Trillion, give it to the banks and get 0.3% growth!

[proggy]

0.3% Wow, margin of error is 0.2% so effectively nothing again. Patient is still not responding. Need cut more waste of space NHS and Public sector managers/staff. (Not Doctors/Nurses).

Given the start of the year we've had, I'd buy into it. Margin of error of 0.2% also means it could be 0.5% growth; these margins have a tendency to operate both ways.

took your time!

Triple dip means we've at least had some growth. Would a single long dip have been better?

But we haven't really had any growth or a triple dip, the very minor spikes are akin to a twitching corps on the mortuary slab.

As long as the average 'hard working family™' has -£1.53 left each month after servicing their basic living requirements the recession will continue.

The bankers and those with big mortgages and no/low income need propping up for the next 20 years.
