Dr Gloom 22197 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Thats where you, me and the entire conservative party agree. If only Tony and Gordon had. yup. blair and brown could have taken a leaf out of the keynes school of economics too. brown (and keynes) were again proved right in the pre-election debates when he warned of a double dip recession and a a more painful, fractured recovery.

PaddockLad 17742 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) Double dip? Are you sure? No, but 6 years after northern rock the economy is still pretty much flatlining, after an encouraging spell around 2009. We then had an election.

Dr Gloom 22197 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) ok, so the official double dip was reported then later revised upwards but the point stands, which ever way you measure a recession, this has been britain's slowest recovery since the great depression of the 1930s. it needn't have been that way. we weren't in the same boat as greece, portugal and others.

Renton 22053 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Think we avoided a double dip by 0.1% in the end after Gideon cooked the books. Of course that's neither here or there, our economic performance has been disastrous and is only now growing thanks to a government fueled housing bubble (housing bubbles, like poverty, being another thing CT denies existence of ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Carr's Gloves 3999 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Might add, when you resort to pedantry you've well and truly lost the argument. Is there an argument. I see some people spouting bollocks they refuse to back up with facts or post tenuous links to dodgy wiki pages then denounce any empirical evidence provided.

desmondTUTU 0 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 But there is no argument. We had a discussion over the course of the day. The facts are that the scroungers are being screwed over and no debate will change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
