The sad thing is that he thinks people still fall for this rubbish. It is time for him to seek medical help I think.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus -
It takes months for lower interest rates to have any effect, and the banks are still not lending much and still in fear of nationalisation. It's going to be another year at least before any noticeable improvement. No way is any recovery starting in April !!Comment

This is bad news whichever way you look at it. He’s unlikely to be right, but if he is then he’ll be able to tell the Labour voting numpties that he’s saved the world, call a quick election and get back into power. Of course he’s probably wrong and the economy will remain a bleeding mess for some time to come.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

Nice to see that he’s precise enough to predict an economic recovery starting Thursday 2nd April. Now if only he’d tell us whether that’s morning, afternoon or evening I could hibernate for a while knowing precisely what time to set my alarm clock.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?

Couple of things caught my eye in that report. Firstly;
That is why I have been pressing so hard that some of the measures we have adopted in Britain we can persuade other countries to adopt.
Secondly;
Mr Brown also outlined how the world should begin to cut down on the number of tax havens.
The blokes a failure and refuses to acknowledge it...Older and ...well, just older!!Comment

The tax havens he may be talking about are the likes of the Channel Islands, which belong to Her Majesty who can and will do what she likes with them, and a few tropical places like Bermuda which are British and provide financial services which bring revenues to British companies who ultimately pay tax in Britain.
To cut a long story short, he’s talking out of his anus again.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment
