Bill Clinton recently painted a dire picture of America's borrowing "Foreign" money to fund Bush's follies.

Gorden Brown is rapidly being exposed as less than prudent, and has had to borrow to "Foreign" money to pay for our little treasures follies. (last nights TV)

Now the worlds poor countries are having their debts cancelled. (Yes thats the countries ruled over generally by dictators who have generally borrowed money to by arms with which to control their own people.)

This means that we have borrowed money to give away, and will have to repay that money (plus interest) out of future taxes, in order to prop up despots.

There's no wonder you are going to have to work until you are 70, and fund all your own health costs etc.

Who was it, on these pages, that said that there were honest trustworthy politicians???

I did say that there were a few, and I stand by that, but they can be counted on one hand.

I also said it. And moreover, I count Gordon Brown as one of them.

Just because you disagree with his actions it doesn't make him dishonest.
