    opinions vary, and you should use a spell checker if your making such bold statements in an effort to get public support

    Are you sure it wasn't The Guardian?:D

    I've heard it said before 'Martin for Prime Minister'..............but I don't want things to change, I like Martin Lewis doing just what he's doing.

    Spelling your name correctly is a basic thing, isn't it?:rolleyes:

    So..............I'd like to say to The Mirror newspaper:

    surely despite lack of experience with highly complex woteverhecalledits Martin Lewis couldn't possibly do any worse-a-job really could he? I trust you Martin, now how do we go about getting him into government, or at the very least an Alan Sugar style position!? :D

    There are many better qualified to do the job (and I hope he forgives me, but better qualified than Martyn too).

    I don't think people were selecting their ideal person by qualifications - I think it's more a matter of who people trust to lead them out of recession. MSE Martin is trusted, where others aren't.

    Yeah that fact is ALWAYS copnveniently forgotten by the 'unbiased' reporting by the BBC and the other media. My cat couldnt do a worse job than the so called experts so expertise counts fro nowt in my eyes!

    Trouble is that in the UK there are never any consequences for bankers and politicians. They have the whole deal tucked away in some backroom old boys network. This country stinks!

  • [FONT=&quot]Martin has been honest enough to state his limitations. It is a shame that those who do have the job of sorting out the mess cannot do the same.[/FONT]
