The blue didnt last for long did it. GDP figures out at 9.30am I bet all the Bullingdon boys already know what they are.

GDP - 0.5 drop... SERIOUS.
This coalition were warned of a double dipper. They took no notice.

Congratulations of to Cameron and Porky.
I wonder who they will blame for the economic results as we go through the coming year.
I suppose rain in spring. the sun in the summer and probably the wind just before the coalition crumbles in an election.
OK I forgot the previous government as per usual.
Only thing contraction is under 7mths of this motley crew.

Mind there is Osborne's Plan B.
Is that back to interest rates at 10% to stop inflation.
That should help house prices.
Back to the charts.
The Astrological ones.

Nobody in government will get the chop and the poor GDP was predictable. GDP isn't about to show any significant improvement until the banks start lending again, and that isn't going to happen all the time they've still got undisclosed toxic debt on their books. That's no fault of the coalition and is the fault of Brown and Balls and the mess they left.
UK inflation (CPI and RPI) both lag sterling oil prices by between 6 and 12 months (6 months in an up-cycle as we're in right now), so with oil prices rising, inflation is unlikely to fall anytime soon either.
The MPC are clearly happy with this and are targetting GDP instead of CPI. The good news is that if rates don't go up and they print a few more squillion, then equities should continue to rise which is surely good news for most people here.
Stagflation is nasty, as everybody sees the real value of their money decline.
I suggest you get over it and be patient over the coming months while all those public sector employees lose their jobs and house prices fall by another 30%.

I am beginning to think this Government's attempt to work with escape clauses is wearing a bit thin.
Interests rates up over next 6mths. ? 3%.
Interesting.
Like to know what the tory plans are.
Perhaps, to leave the country.

Sorry Hillary cant agree with U mate before the world ression labour had spending under control. When Brown gave more power to the BoE he wasnt inviting them to help themselves.
Getting a bit thin now the torys blaming it back on Labour and the opinion polls are reflecting that.

Lets not forget aswell labour bailed the banks out should they have been let go the wall, and think of the consequences of that.

It took Labour just over 10 years to screw up a healthy economy and they left behind an utter and complete shambles. It will take more than 8 months to sort out the mess. Personally, I think letting one bank go to the wall would probably have been a good thing in the long run, rather than this tortuous process of waiting for them all to come clean. I don't really understand how the Labour party can try and claim the moral high ground and criticise the Coalition, when it was those same stupid w*ankers who got us into this mess in the first place, but that's politics for you!
