    Lib Dem MP Matthew Oakeshott is one of a number of critics who fear the conditions are being put in place for an even bigger bubble next time.
    So long as we have a big BOOM before it, who cares? All adds to the excitement of life, and gives us 10 months relaxation on the bench. Work? Who needs it?

    This has to be good news for IT contractors in the financial services arena.

    If the (w)bankers are back to their bad old ways, the £800/day .NET roles can't be far off.

    Alistair Darling went out of his way to compliment the City, insisting it remained "an immense asset to our country" and deserved protection.
    He has certainly done that...

    So how much is it going to cost to bail them out next time and are we going to end up completely nationalising the banks?
