Hang on old Gids said last year all is going well, clearly people need to spend more and rack up more their personal debt. Signs are 2016 the fuse is lit question is will it go bang in 2016. :hmmm:

I would say probably not unless something big happens that said another big down turn is on the way.

David Cameron is under pressure to guarantee "sink estate" residents can return to their old communities after they have been bulldozed.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-35300668

All to easy for a spot of bulldozing but why is he so hush hush about residents returning?

Is he planning to ignore them as the government knows best?
