  1. France - The Road Not Taken

    Hollande promised an end to austerity when he was elected. Since then he has proposed fiscal tightening of 2% of GDP, the majority of which was through tax rises, particularly those aimed at high earners. The result is a collapsing money supply, EUR 53bn leaving the country in the last two...

    Is fiscal reponsibility the new political correctness on SZ?

    Once upon a time, most posters on SZ were fairly evenly split, between the pro or anti Ron brigades. The pro camp held sway for quite some time, however their position became pretty much untenable(IMO)with the unfolding of events in 2010 (if not before then). I have, however, recently...

    The poor subsidise the rich

    According to the independent Institute for Fiscal Studies, a organisation lauded by the tories when in opposition, the poorest members of society will lose 5p in the pound more than the richest under the Condems emergency budget. It was interesting that the chap wheeled out on Newsnight last...

    Thatcherism:Mark Two

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2010/jul/04/osborne-markets-fiscal-recovery Have to say I've long been a great fan of William Keegan's excellent economic journalism in The Observer and was pleased to see him on Sky news earlier today developing the ideas contained in this astute article.

    Liverpool Are Doomed - With Or Without Rafa

    Rafa Benitez deserves to be sacked. He’s had six years, hundreds of millions of pounds and Liverpool are worse off now than they were under Gerard Houllier. But if George Gillett and Tom Hicks think that his demise will make any difference to their stricken football club, they are very much...

    The Price Is Wrong

    I think it’s time to have a look at that Fit and Proper Persons test. The existing document focuses heavily on issues of past fraudulent behaviour, but that’s not good enough. Given everything that has happened at Portsmouth and the horrors that David Sullivan and David Gold have inherited at...

    Rusty Shackleford's X-Files: SUFC Special

    I thought I would depart from the normal RSXF theme of carl, steveo and I arguing with all the Godless lefties and discuss something which really doesn’t belong in the Pub section – my view on the current state of Southend United, both on and off the field. Steve Tilson has presided over one...
  11. Question £80 million ?

    Since the 2000 article in the Independent Newspaper [see Other Owners thread at Fossetts Forum], what has changed ? RM/Owners have not "demanded" rent for RH and have already written off a sizeable sum, yet there remains an equally large sum, still technically due or payable. Suppose 20% p.a...
  12. The Bank letter :)

    Following on from Sam's letter to the bank .....:p Dear Sir: I am writing to thank you for bouncing the cheque with which I endeavoured to pay my plumber last month. By my calculations, some three nanoseconds must have elapsed between his presenting the check, and the arrival in my account...
