    MSN shut it's forums because various boss-eyed nazis and assorted nutters and bigots spent all their energies taking over threads and spreading insults mixed with lies everywhere. It seems to be happening here.

    Really? As mad as PPI and all the stuff since 2008? Perhaps not. There's a thought.

    The mad stuff was pre 2008. The light touch financial regulation that Brown & Balls copied from their US idol Greenspan being the catalyst.

    Do you think things would have been any different if the Tories were in power.

    It wasn't previously but there are now signs of it. We've been here ages, so what's perhaps changed?
    I am not a financial adviser and neither do I play one on television. I might occasionally give bad advice but at least it's free.

    Like all religions, the Faith of the Invisible Pink Unicorns is based upon both logic and faith. We have faith that they are pink; we logically know that they are invisible because we can't see them.

    Yea probably worse with Osborne matching Labours spending and a lighter touch on bank regulation.

    What's wrong with Peoples QE? It would be a lot cheaper than the PFI deals making our Rail and Hospital Building a lot, lot dearer. We wouldn't have to borrow any dosh from the toffs and banking rogues.
