Citywire: Gordon Brown and the emperor's new clothes
Suddenly the ‘Saviour of The World’ is being criticised by his peers for indiscriminately throwing money (OUR MONEY) at a problem he doesn’t understand. Not another emperor without clothes! Perhaps he ought to take a leaf out of the book of one of the Roman emperors who used to have a chap standing behind him and who had to keep reminding said emperor that he was human.'A sound banker, alas, is not one who foresees danger and avoids it, but one who, when he is ruined, is ruined in a conventional way along with his fellows, so that no one can really blame him,' said economist John Maynard Keynes.

The substance of the article is fine; but the style? Is the editor on holiday perchance?
