So we are left with cutting interest rates and this would appeal to George/David & Nick as this will mean paying off the deficit will cost less.
As for the IMF I believe we the Brits set that one up...Sod it.
Its about bloody time we were told what the true debt is.

I'm currently on 3 1/2% fixed for one year on ISA's which then drop to 1.5%
Basic accounts currently pay between .1% and .5%
The base rate of the BoE is/was 1/2% so how can it be cut any further?
Strange how the banks can charge between 8% and !)% to borrowers.
