one of Browns better speaches, im glad he's warning the US off protectionism (which i understand much better now ive done some research into it online) i just wish he'd do more to get the banks lending and stuff here

 

 Well, he's doing as much as he can, and what he's doing is growing in size. I mean, in the past week we've heard of the £75 billion quantitive-easing, getting Northern Rock to lend £14bn in mortgages, and the Bank of England Bill which gives more control to it).

The London summit will be targeted at getting a world-wide regulatory banking system (which doesn't help much now, but it will in the future), as well as dealing with other things.

I personally think that Brown's Darling (see what I did there ) are being a little steady on what they're doing. I don't think that they're going to nationalise the entire banking system simply because we're getting ever-closer to an election, Labour is in shit, and they don't want to lose even more votes (they would certainly lose a lot of the centrists). I'm also of a belief that this has something to do with the part-privatisation of the Royal Mail - it pleases more voters than it pisses off.

:-p id still rather they did more, but id take them over the Tories anyday of the year

 

 Unfortunately, you're one voter. Which is made even worse by the fact that you're in Bath.
