Re: UK to be bankrupt by 2014
They've been running adverts pushing this 'controversial research' for a year at least. Presumably there is some sort of massive, coordinated campaign to deceive the British public going on, because none of the mainstream media outlets have been anywhere near it.
Oh well, time to stock up on canned goods.

Re: UK to be bankrupt by 2014
Oh well the only sensible thing to do is vote for a party that thinks the UK economy was just peachy a few years back and want to spend huge amounts more from the magic money tree.

Well this makes it look to me like the Tories have about stripped said tree and in fact are spending more than Labour

Re: UK to be bankrupt by 2014
So for the UK to be bankrupt by 2014 we have just over 3 months to go.
Let's all bookmark this page and return to it on Jan 1st 2014 to see where we are. That's of course assuming we all have enough money to keep our internet services running.
Posted by a non-Tory supporter by the way.

Err .. Have you actually watched it? It spends most of the first 10 minutes laying into the welfare state and, quite correctly, pointing out that the "Tory cuts" of the last 3 years have actually been nothing of the sort. By 20 minutes in, it's quoting Douglas Carswell, an MP from the right of the Tory party, to illustrate just how badly out of control government spending has become over the last 30 years.
If Money Week's prescription for fixing the national debt was followed by any of our parties, Cable Forum couldn't contain all the threads moaning about welfare cuts.

Yes. Rather a lot of that is interest payments on debts run up by Labour. The rest is due to our STRUCTURAL DEFICIT. You do know what one of those is, don't you? It's just that the way you're on here every day moaning about Tory Cuts, anyone would think you don't believe there's actually much of a problem.
