Gordon Brown - Appears to be in trouble...
...with his self imposed "Golden Rule".
He does not have enough money coming in!
Raise taxes or cut spending...which will it be?
More speed cameras me thinks

Hey, why not have the Govt sell annual get out of jail free cards for moderate speeding offences (only in 60 and 70 mph zones)? I'd imagine stacks of people paying HM Gov err, stacks

WTF? Not enough money coming in in taxes????????
And we rate as one of the most heavily taxed countries in Europe, if not THE heaviest, taking into account direct and indirect taxation
Just recently, a large group of senior business men co-signed a letter to a daily, stating that ITHO the people of the UK could not afford to pay any more tax.
WTF does he spend it on? He MUST have had a HUGE windfall when oil prices rose, where has that gone?

I think an extra 500,000 in the civil service may have something to do with it as well ....
GB's only plus point is that he gave independence to the Bank of England. They're the ones who are keeping the economy on the straigh and narrow despite what Nu Labia are trying to do ....

I notice the phrase "economic cycle" is being used again. This is another way of saying "boom and bust" and the "bust" is just around the corner (just after they win their coveted 'third term')
Hang on to your hats and have your seat belts tightly fastened. There is going to be one hell of a ride coming up.
