Struggling with the optimism a tad Gordy.

Best I can do is post a picture of Chewbacca grabbing Leia's westernmost breast.

'He added: "The British spirit is to see a problem, identify it, and get on with solving it. Once a problem hits us we are determined and resolute and we are adamant that we are going to deal with that problem."

Well it worked in the Blitz, but I'm not sure fighting them on the beaches is going to work this time. Global recession it may be but much of Britain's woes lie at the feet of this imbecile. He's just very lucky there's no Opposition. To misquote Hiter, 'Wo ist der Konservative Partie?'

For once I agree with Broon. Like it or not this downturn will pass (no thanks to him I might add) but in the meantime if will all keep feeling sorry for ourselves it will just linger on.

Can't believe I'm saying this, but for once the Clunking Fist is right (it must be just the law of averages). Being pessimistic about the recession can do nothing but deepen it.

The fact that a great deal of responsibility for the whole shooting match, especially and specifically the UK's exalted and much-ignored status as the worst placed developed country to deal with this global downturn, lies at Broon's hands: well, I hope history judges him as he deserves, at the very least.

Perhaps, but since people are happy during boom times you can only expect them to be unhappy in bust times. I see the recession as a storm that will have to pass over, and Brown throwing money at it won't make a bean of difference, it will just take time.

Downturn/Recession/Depression seen it all before. It's just that we have all the drama queens who now have a soapbox which is the Internet to comment from.
Some of the comments on other threads are frankly unbelievable!.

I hope not because he is rapidly becoming very unpopular again and a new boy might just have a conveniently timed honeymoon period that lands us with another Labour innings.
