"BUY BRITISH"
with sterling dropping so fast there isn't any other choice.

On a serious note - only 2 things you should be putting your money in to at the moment

Arms Manafacturers and Oil

Everything alse could do anything, including Gold which is near its peak so liable to start falling sooner rather than later

The Euro is going to plummet within 6 months, so dont bother going there either.

Swiss Franc will be fucked too once the full extent of their Banking industrys bailouts become apparent.

"now thats because you and me took out huge loans to buy BMW's and houses we couldn't afford"

I didn't. not everyone 's a greedy cunt who expects to live a lifestyle funded by credit.

I didn't I saved instead and so far I have lost 15-20% on those savings, on paper at least. I feel like a mug for saving now so I am thinking about borrowing money and buying a house and a few shares.

Blame the knob socket government.

And blame the cunt monger government for promoting unsustainable debt as being the only way to grow.

Clearly you were not around in the glorious days of Thatcher.
Oh.

I think this is a very useful thread.

Look! A twat!

Blimey! Is that another one?

You're talking to yourself, Platini.

Thatcher took away your life and it's a sad sight. ;)

The government didn't hold guns to peoples head and force them to over stretch themselves. As was said, that is down to pure greed, Sarah Beenie and 'living the dream'. However this this government went infinitely further than Thatchers mob ever could dream by allowing TOTAL degregulation between themselves, the FSA and the bank of England.

As far as I see things we are more fucked than anybody else as we produce so little. Our economy seems to be based on traders sat in front of those 80's computer screens where everything is green. (Or is this an over simplification?)

When there's a downturn how can you expect to cover yourself?

The Economist is pointing to the long term inequality in current account deficient between the US&Uk and China. We pay China for imports. The Chinese earn £. The Chinese send back £ to the UK. Our financiers have to lend out those £ hence all thise dodgy loans.

You're talking to yourself, Platini.

As per usual...

Thatcher took away your life

No she didn't. She tried her best though.

The government didn't hold guns to peoples head and force them to over stretch themselves. As was said, that is down to pure greed, Sarah Beenie and 'living the dream'.

Sarah Beenie is forgiven, she has a fantastic rack.

As is Maggie Thatcher, see above.

Retches

Sarah Beenie is forgiven, she has a fantastic rack.
