we are being screwed by everyone. the bankers are no more greedy than you or me. why would you turn down £2 million a year? the governments are scared of the bankers & the products they sell because they don't understand them. doctors on £100k a year & they can't even cure anyone is a much greater scam, but thats another story..................
you are right about governments keeping their nose out. they can't run a coal mine, can't run a car plant, can't run a school or a hospital, why would they be able to run a bank?

we are being screwed by greedy bankers also known as wan****. their greed will ruin us all and government throwing more of our money at them will just make it worse.

Looks like it has happened everywhere. Our german and taiwan plants are also feeling the pinch as the markets there have slid as a result of the US market. time for manufacturers everywhere to step up and bring the global economy back, relying on financial sectors has always proven to be a mistake

UK, AND US,,, same boat...same receding tide, lowering all boats...
thanks Tony and GW...

the question is how are we going to recover from this reccession?think of the industry we had back in 91 and look at it now.over the last few years the government told us we had a strong ecconomy..but from what?it was supposedly finantial services making the money but thats just imploded.how do we recover if we dont make anything to sell to people?we let manufacturing slowly dwindle in this country and now we're in a pretty deep hole.bleak.
