THE AMERICAN BANKING DISASTER WOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED IF THESE ACTS HAD NOT EFFECTIVELY BEEN REPEALED
AND THE BRITISH BANKING DISASTER WOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED IF BLIAR AND BROWN HAD BROUGHT IN A BRITISH EQUIVALENT

was that great pal of Bliar's , Clinton, that repealed lass-Steagall Act which, had it been extant would have prevent America's woes and vitally, if we had , had an equivalent in Britain, would have saved us.
if Brown really foresaw this crash 10 years ago, why did he not pasS a UK equivalent of the Glass-Steagall Act?-which outlawed, the mixing of ordinary deposit banking with investment(?merchant) banking, as I understand it. The buying and selling of complex securities fuelled speculation and caused our house price and credit bubbles AS ANY FOOL CAN SEE- SO WHY DIDN'T BROWN STOP IT???!!!! one thing to learn forever is that all bubbles burst, and to stop them while you can

ON THE RETURN TO THE FRONT BENCH OF KEN CLARKE
cameron obviously thinks like Julius Caesar:
Let me have men about me that are fat;
Sleek-headed men, and such as sleep o' nights.
Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look;
Mandelson now the Prime Minister in all but name is an obvious Cassius

now then, it looks like, according to what this fellow said that this was a politically highly sensitive situation, can anyone seriously believe that he did not tell Jacqui Smith about it? NO! OF COURSE NOT AND OF COURSE HE DID which means that she was not being entirely candid when she denied all knowledge of a forthcoming raid on Mr. Greens office.it is my personal opinion that most people would say she was lying through her teeth
when you listen to Ms. Smith with all her bleating and denying
someone please remember this,
some body is lying

fractional reserve banking
in case you were wondering, it is common sense that bank should be required to keep a certain fraction of its lending in reserve in simple terms, say £9 in reserve for every pond lent out, of course if a bank can securitise its lending it can get round the fractional reserve requirements, that is what Northern Rock did and when its customers wanted their money the cupboard was bare, it had swapped its securities for other equally worthless securities which turned out to be worthless pieces of paper- ah the delights of securities tradingbut we all know all this, having watched Evan davies brilliant program on the BBCp://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00gtljy/The_City_Uncovered_with_Evan_Davis_Banks_and_How_to_Break_Them/

plainly the best way to get round the fractional reserve regulations, which were vitally important, is securitisation that magical method of turning debt into money, which works up to the point that the borrowers are able to service or repay their debts. then suddenly those securities suddenly seem less secure and turn into worthless pieces of paper- hence the banks' collapse and the resulting credit crunch
for this to make sense you need to have watched the money as debt video(link on this blog)
Maggie Thatcher and her moneybags chums abandoned the fractional reserve regulations and Bliar and the fool Brown went down the same route hence the current cricise

IS PETER MANDELSO NTHEREAL BRITISH PRIME MINISTER?
IT IS A FAIR QUESTION SINCE THE SUPREME SPINNER SEEMS TO BE APPOINTING MINISTERS
oddly enough he does not have the courage to stand for the House of Commons? we wonder why not?

SNAP ELECTION LIKE LY
with time running out for Brown- he only has 502 days left,he must be waiting for a good poll to call a snap election as soon as the weather forecast for a few days is good- say April But May looks more likely. Mandy will be pushing for sooner rather than later because Mandy is a poll freak and likes to pick his own time
MANDY is now the de facto prime Minister, he even appoints ministers
