  There is no way on this Earth that the deficit will be brought down to any semblance of an acceptable level because there will be no growth for the next ten or twenty years in the UK. As I've pointed out before many times politicians obsession with the environment has effectively killed off any chance of growth. You only have to take the Man or mouse debate which is currently running.
  The liverpills object to any expansion to Heathrow on the grounds of saving the planet. I know, I know they're mad as a box of frogs but this is where they stand. The tory high command also believe that by not building an extra runway they can bring down the planets temperature and the labour party are equally flip flopping on the issue.
  Couple this with a future energy crunch which will lead to a doubling of energy bills over the next few years to pay for windfarms and tidal barrages and other ludicrously stupid schemes and you might just be getting the picture - we are all stuffed.
  There is no vision for growth. In fact the government's strategy is positively anti-growth but they think that if they lead the world in their green vision the world will follow. Erm, someone tell them that so far it's not happened. In fact India, China and other tiger nations are building coal power stations faster than ever. Indeed Germany who closed down their nuclear capability after the panic in Japan are now in the process of building even more coal fired power stations. This from the Germans!!!!!
  Get used to the fact that as a nation we will become poorer and have even less of a role in the world than we do now.
  Thanks Dave, thanks Nick, thanks Gordon, thanks David.
  And a special thanks for those who voted for them.
