    WHS. And they realise we're bankrupt. It would cost a few billion to mount an operation like that in 1981.

    This time they are gathering an alliance and there is oil to be had there.

    I guess though they'd want to wait until exploration has been confirmed and expensive offshore platforms are fully operational...

    Largest peacetime deficit?

    Who is paying for our "operations" in Afghanistan?

    Wake up and smell the napalm Mr King, we're at war!

    Interests will stay low - the ones on your deposits.

    The interest rates on your loans will soon rise - with UK inflation oficially at 3.5% it is only a matter of time before you will pay 8% on your mortgage.
