Looks like Alistairs Christmas recovery is out of the window together with the turkey, Gordon. Gloomy indeed.

Along with that short lived dream/lie, what also isn't a suprise is that the banks need more of our kids money to lend out to us adults,

of course with interest slapped on for good measure. Is it just me or do others have a problem with that?

It's not only pensioners and savers that are getting robbed here. This Green Shoots nonesense I fell is just a way of making these gigantic

ongoing cash injections more acceptable to the desperate UK taxpayers who really are missing a trick and only see a property recovery

getting closer and closer and closer and closer, but not acknowledging that banks are running further and further away.????

With all this stock market pumping and ramping banks still need more money. The "crash" is still very much on course.
