Last year,the same week I was away and the Northern Rock crisis started.This time,the world's financial system teeters on the brink of collapse.By the end of the week,the United States government is effectively in control of the country's financial assets and Gordon Brown has created a new super bank.(At least we should now see the end of those awful Halifax adverts).
Now we have the Labour party conference starting,just a couple of miles down the road from where I am sitting typing this.
Will Gordon survive? It seems as though the past weeks events have given him a chance to shine,but I wish he would
a) acknowledge that he has made mistakes
b) stop harping back to the early 90's with high inflation,unemployment and interest rates.It past and it is largely irrelevant
c) assemble a decent team around him that care about the individual and are not just career politicians.
