Isn’t it amazing how no one learns lessons from history! The last time the British economy was FUBB was when Labour were in charge; Callaghan, Healey, all that lot. The next time was . . . when New Labour was in charge; Blair, Brown, all that lot. And across the sea, it’s the Irish economy which has gone tits up with a Labour government in charge.
And to make it even worse, they’ve got the IRA party leading the protests, so bombs, knee-cappings, disappearances & secret murders, all that lot in prospect. Plus the obligatory bank robberies. Which is why my financials have been doing an “exposure” audit to make sure my zillions aren’t at risk of Irish defaults or defaults by others in a chain going back to Ireland. Having lots of dosh can be real hard work at time. But infinitely preferable to the alternative, of course.
