Gordon Brown has got to go....
So we had super Gordon selling all of our gold at $250 an ounce when it's now $900 an ounce.
Then he allowed the entire nation to become property investors(this is yet to play out)
More recently there was the Northern Rock situation where he forced everyone of us to lend the sponsors of Newcastle United £700 per person
Finally he's lying to us about how bad the economy is. He reckons household inflation is 2%.............
Mortgages in 2007 rose by 16%
Council tax rose by 10%
Unleaded fuel rose by 23%
And look at the below chart regarded general household items:
This guy needs to go now before he completely wrecks this country!

The country is already wrecked, 18 years of Maggie and her hangers on followed by 11 years of Blairism, no doubt now we will add Cameron to the mix to finally finish us off when he ignores all the real issues and taxes us all to death on the green bandwagon.
Mind you, 30 years of self serving greed driven career politicians is enough to finish any country off.

My wage hasn't matched increased costs for the past couple years. Made worse due to an overtime ban/Bonus ban.
I was better off in 2002 than I am now.
The Petrol cost is just the last kick in the teeth. If it gets to £1.15-£1.20 a litre, I'm selling the Scoob.

Dont sell the scoob. You'll only be letting the b*st*rds win.

Government - never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups

With the price of cereals set to soar this year (we have no/little reserves left), the cost of living is going to shoot up even further, as they underpin a large amount of our food/western diets. That on it's own will push up the inflation figure more than 4%.
Shoving the trolley around Tesco's each week is going to cost a whole lot more.

Yep, saw this on TV this morning, grocery prices rising at the fastest rate EVER recorded since they started recording.
Petrol up by nearly 35% in four months
Council tax set to rise 10% AGAIN
And STILL Lying Labour insist that inflation is only 2.1%
AND use it to peg teachers' salary increases to 2% for the next THREE YEARS
So much for the "INDEPENDENT" Teachers Salary review committee introduced by Maggie in 1988 and kept on by Labour since 1997.
I'm sorry, but even with my colourful vocabulary, I just don't know enough swearwords or insults to adequately describe this shower of *****!

GB doesn't want things making inflation *figures* rise.
Solution is simple, he just removes from the equation things that make the figure rise.
How is inflation calculated these days? There's cost of living inflation (rising a lot and is what I see as the *real* inflation) and there's "luxury" goods inflation (rather low, stuff like electronic goods, tvs, stereos etc., your nice to have things but not essential for living on).

Someone assasinate him then, when was the last British PM assasinated? has there ever been one??
Sure they will replace him but then shoot them aswell, they will soon get the message when they all get shot one after the other
Nobody will want the job so they will be forced to put it up as a job vacancy, then hopefully someone with half a brain will get in and sort the mess out.
PS any Gov agencies reading this, I am not volunteering to assasinate the current government! and if any of them do get assasinated it had nothing to do with me honest!!

Won't need to pay tax on what I earn in prison so won't be contributing to the scrounging bumms on the outside, doesn't sound to bad to me especially as in that time I can learn how to be a criminal and get a degree or 2 at the tax payers expence

well at least I will get a roof over my head, 3 square meals a day, Sky TV and a room with a view.

But on the downside there's always the 20p/50p rule

AAAHHHH good old BBC the stock market is messing the bed in spectacular fashion today down over 2%.... in one day no mention of this though instead
We have BBC NEWS | Business | UK inflation steady in December
"There was also downward price pressure last month from reduced furniture prices, particularly for kitchen units and leather sofas. "
That's okay because I always buy kitchen units and leather sofas every month
I live ina house constructedof leather sofasand I grind downkitchen units and use them as fuel. If I feel a bit peckish I might also eat a kitchen unit.
Honestly it's like living in the twilight zone........or North Korea

We need a BIG "reset". This will come in the form of a very bad recession, or even a depression.
Is complete b0llocks. Looking at how this figure is calculated is a joke, and is not respentative of inflation for the average person.
I'm pleased to see public service workers have all told Brown to shove his 2% pay offer, and are demanding more like 4.5-5%.
Brown is just DESPERATE to keep the party going for a little bit longer - but I think the house of cards (UK ecomony) is going to come crashing down under his watch, which is sweet irony as many of the things which have caused things to get so unsustainable were brought in/done by him/Liebour.
