Government

It does seem somewhat perverse that the government systematically buggers the UK's economy over the last 10 years by way of higher taxes, more red tape than you could shake a stick at, at then when it all goes wrong, seeks to take the credit (bad pun, I know) for committing around £20,000 of tax payers money to prop up the system.
It would not be so bad if the PM did not seem so happy with the state of it all.
Mind you it gives the old trots the excuse to blame America for it all, and to embark on wholesale nationalisation. Would it not be better to nationalise something useful, like the trains, or would that upset their (esteemed) business friends?
