He's saying that a balanced parliament (hung) would mean the international bailiffs would be sent in (IMF). He's starting to look ever so silly. Apparently he's going to go at Nick Clegg all guns blazing tomorrow. Bet he gets a bloody nose (again) :roll:

Why not we are fully paid up members about time we got something for our subscription.
 
I am guessing he remembers the last time we had a HUNG parliment (balanced my arse, where a minority acts as king maker) we then swifty had the winter of discontent...in which everything went to hell.... and we had to seek help from the IMF (so it is not like it is without precedent)....anyone that doesn't remember this, I suggest you read up on what happens when the lab/lib pact takes affect.

But what on earth makes you think that history will repeat itself? :wink:
 
I remember it well,the dead unburied,rubbish left in the street, sounds familiar?
I don't think other people in the world would share the view [that] there is mounting chaos
What Callaghan actually said as apposed to crisis what crisis.A better statement today might be I see no ships only hardships.

Because the one thing you learn from history is that it repeats itself.

Watch the financial markets panic and the £ collapse if its hung. Then our credit rating goes down the ****ter and the increased cost of credit to us will cripple the recovery.

Last time we had a minority parliament it lasted 7 months, and was a ****ing abortion, and we ended up grovelling to the IMF for £3.8 billion to get us out the ****.

Seems to me that compared to our current financial predicament, it would be a bargain
 
Last month alone we borrowed £23 billion. That's 23,000,000,000 quid!

That's about £800,000,000 per day. How can we ever pay it back when we can't even stop it rising?

Where are the cuts going to come?

Government borrowing soared to a record high in the year to the end of March, even though it was £3 billion short of the Chancellor’s forecast.
Its coming under control so no panic Capt Mainwaring.You could be cynical and say that the forecast for borrowing was set high and came in under to make the figures look good or they lied about how much has been borrowed.Another thought is this why interest rates are so low and wil remain so? to keep the interest build up low.

Are you honestly suggesting that the creditors allow the borrowers to set the rate of interest? ;)
