i know clarkson for pm was a joke, but people are saying it and some idiots probably believe it. that is a joke



quite the opposite mate, i am one of the biggest sceptics that you will find. i have studied economics to a very limited level and it seems to make sense, but maybe if i got into it more i may be able to disagree with it.

what's your take on it then? can you suggest an alternative?


Agree with you on the short term thing,People in that sort of position should have experienced good and hard times in real life finanically not get 10,000 allowance for a kitchen in their second home.When gordon brown had a meeting up in scotland with the oil bosses a few weeks ago did you see him being careful with the fuel he used? and the enviroment? no he jumped straight into a sovereign jag. Excuse my spelling
