Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

Even James Callaghan, who was Labour Chancellor for a few years never even went to university. Ken Clarke widely regarded as one of the best Chancellors did a law degree. It is not necessary to have an economics degree or to be an economist to be Chancellor. The treasury does the economics policy analysis. It is up to the Chancellor to set the policy.

Here we go! The UKIP crazies are at it again
22 May 2013 15:43
A UKIP donor who said unmarried mothers should be "given a good smack" has said he will give no more money to the party because of the controversy about his views.
Demetri Marchessini, who has made two donations totalling £10,000 to the party, wrote a book arguing women who wear trousers are demonstrating "hostile behaviour".
He told the BBC he stood by his views.
"All my thoughts are traditional thoughts," he said.

Ed Balls at the Treasury was a political appointment and Brown appointed Mikiband to the same position later. Neither of them worked in the Treasury as it is staffed by civil servants who are the actual economists who do the economic analysis. Ed and Miliband were just Chairmen of the Council of advisors.

that black murderer said he wanted a war in London .the gov should now be rounding up these known terrorist and deport them today and their families them in the deserts of their countries their thousands in the uk
if the uk gov does not take action now .
THEN ALL THE MPs SHOULD RESIGN AND ALLOW PEOPLE TO RUN THE UK

If stock markets fall when the #Fed talks about halting #QE, imagine what will happen if they actually do so, and then start to raise rates!

Ed Balls was chairman of an oversight committee. Look him up on wiki
"Chairman of HM Treasury's Council of Economic Advisers."
He was in that job to guide treasury policy to suit Labour party policy.
You can hardly reccomend Ed Balls as an economist worthy of note when he was part of Brown's team that spent all our money and made such a hash of things. Miliband was part of the same 'super team, as well. There we have two failed economists wanting to mess things up again.
Do you remember the note left by Labour treasury people - "WE HAVE SPENT ALL THE MONEY".

Its the same thing as Chairman of HM Treasury's Council of Economic Advisers.".
It was about Labour party policy not treasury analysis. The economists in the Treasury are far cleverer than Balls,

Remember this? It was from the government run by Brown with Balls and Milliband as economic advisors
The former
Labour chief secretary to the Treasury, Liam Byrne, has reignited criticism of Labour's stewardship of the economy with a note for his successor which said "there's no money left".
