But what astonishes me about Brown is that the press, and we can only speak of them, opposition politicans are quite clueless, the press has only in recent months begun to criticize him. It is only now sinking in what a mess he is making of the economy. Only now? It has been quite obvious to me that he has been messing it up for a number of years, indeed, the seeds for what is happening were sown six years or so ago. Yet no one cottoned on. I had written an exceptionally long and analitical piece on why our economy is unsound, and had started to post it on this site some time ago. But do you know what, I want to see if any journalist has the wit and ability to come to the same conclusion him or herself. They stack up. I wait with bated breath.
