Gordon Brown re-emerges.

Still avoiding jail, the former PM appeared on CNBC and spoke in New York yesterday while his former partner in crime Ed Balls, frightened thoughtful adults with his double-speak and warped thinking on UK lunchtime TV. Brown's own non-thoughts may be viewed in full from Paul Waugh's blog, linked here.

In the evening, Wimbledon finals day Centre Court addict, Mervyn King, sometime supposed Governor of the Bank of England (by dint these days of chairing the MPC), proudly gave a speech where he announced that there had been no growth in real incomes in Britain since 2005 (roughly the term of his tenure), inflation was bound to continue to rise and we were all in for excruciatingly awful times not seen since the nineteen-twenties. At last he has grasped reality then!

Unhappily for Brown and Balls, just two of the conspirators responsible for this disaster, King's speech confirmed that not only did these two cretins create the biggest bust to be seen in history (still only in its opening phases but almost four years on) the supposed boom that preceded it expired in 2005 when the effects of Brown's having originally shadowed the former Conservative Governments economic policies ceased to exist.

As I stated here, jailing those responsible will eventually be a necessary move towards making the more extreme austerity measures now necessary, more acceptable to the public (especially if the Today programme continues to direct almost its entire morning output towards agitating for public dissent and protest, as was the case this morning). Among other names, after Brown and Balls,  of those against whom prosecutions should now be being prepared IMO are Alistair Darling, Tony Blair, Yvette Cooper and Liam Byrne.

Jail for Gordon Brown!

It is extremely gratifying for this blogger to read a call for the jailing of the former Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, in a national newspaper. Jeremy Warner an Assistant Editor of the Daily Telegraph writes in that newspaper, linked here:

"The case is quite easily constructed; that he did willfully take the brakes off public spending, that he failed to control the recklessness of the banks, that he stripped the Bank of England of its powers of financial supervision and gave them instead to a shiny new, politically correct but wholly inept regulator, that he misled parliament over the state of the public finances....."

It may often have seemed fanciful in the boom times of recent years when I called for just such a future policy, there are several other members of the former cabinet who should eventually join him if this nation is ever to restore a working democracy. In a couple of years further in to this age of austerity the demands across the towns and villages will, I believe, achieve just that, but a good start can be made with Brown.

Introducing the Brown Levy I suggested here, here, here and here,will add to the pressure and is daily becoming a more urgent necessity in the face of the now obvious UK Property Price collapse which will simultaneously require the amended equity loss sharing arrangements long proposed on this blog..
