State of the nation

About time somebody hit the reset button.

Why doesn't the UK declare bankruptcy, wipe all debts and we all start again without credit cards or borrowing beyond your means.

Also restrict house price growth to the rate of inflation, any more and it's a benefit in kind so taxed heavily. We'd still see a 10-20% return each year seeing as that's probably the true inflation figure.

Darling would probably take out an IVA with Brussels and we'll all be paying 80% of our income to Europe.
