Hardly interesting to learn that before the General Election the Governor of the Bank of England expressed great concern to the US ambassador about Cameron and Osborne lacking experience. A statement of the blooming obvious most would say. Neither had been in Government before but neither had Blair or Brown before they crashed the economy and Osborne seems to be doing rather better than that. It is to be hoped that ex member of the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee Danny Blanchflower and current member Posen's gripes against Mervyn King will be ignored as they sound very much like sour grapes to me.
Hardly interesting either to learn that Brown and Miliband D considered asking Hillary Clinton to emphasise US support for a 'strong' Europe (a euphemism for support for the EU apparently) as a way to highlight Conservative schisms on this subject. Brown and Miliband D it seems were also using Britain's role in the EU (and one assumes the Conservative attitude to the EU in contrast to the then Labour Government's attitude) as an example of Conservative economic and foreign policy 'isolationist' tendencies. What a joke as the only international tendencies of the left have been those of the Red Flag as evidenced by their love of the fascist EU regime.
