So it's bank deposits now, how long before (if this economic mess endures) it's other investments or assets? Pensions, homes, shareholdings etc. It's long been obvious to me that when Brown's economic muck finally hit the fan and the inevitable bust happened, it'd ultimately be those who'd been prudent and saved who'd bail out those who were living the high life, spending what they didn't have and running up debt.

Where are all those people who used to bang on about how the UK should join the Euro now? I recall people calling me a little Englander and telling me it'd be great. So much simpler not having to change currency on their hols. etc. The facts about a common exchange rate and one-size-fits-all interest rates seemed to elude them... What a total crock!...
