		<description><![CDATA[<p> It certainly comes as no surprise to The Fleet Street Letter that Labour are placed third in the local elections. Less than 25% of the vote for Labour, with Cameron’s mob pushing up in the 40’s and the Lib Dem’s pipping them at the post for second place.</p>
<p>What was Mr Brown expecting? He’s run the country into the ground and people are showing their disapproval at the polling stations.</p>
<p>After screwing up the banking sector and making many, many people’s financial situation worse… the country has stood up together with Paddy Chayefsky like exuberance and stated: “I’m as mad as hell… and I’m not going to take it anymore”.</p>

Less than 25% of the vote for Labour, with Cameron’s mob pushing up in the 40’s and the Lib Dem’s pipping them at the post for second place.<span id="more-1782"></span></p>
<p>What was Mr Brown expecting? He’s run the country into the ground and people are showing their disapproval at the polling stations.</p>
<p>After screwing up the banking sector and making many, many people’s financial situation worse… the country has stood up together with Paddy Chayefsky like exuberance and stated: “I’m as mad as hell… and I’m not going to take it anymore”.</p>
<p>The country’s mad, we’re mad, the finance sector’s crippled – what can be done?</p>
<p>Well consider this…</p>
<p>The finance sector makes up one third of our economic output, contributes £20 billion to the trade balance&#8230; and accounted for nearly HALF of UK GDP growth in 2007.</p>
<p>There are now more finance sector workers in Britain than there are construction workers, farmers and factory workers combined.</p>
<p>And they are in trouble!</p>
<p>Let me ask you something dear reader…</p>
<p>What do you think’s going to happen to the domestic economy&#8230; and to YOUR savings and investments… if Britain’s ‘Miracle Money Machine’ has its output slashed by one tenth&#8230; one third&#8230; or even half?</p>
<p>Well &#8211; as the pound continues to perform disastrously against the Euro and the dollar… investment banks brace themselves for further fallout… it’s time to batten down the hatches, because you’re about to find out.</p>
<p>Below you’ll find the link to a brand new Crisis Report published by <em>The Fleet Street Letter</em>. They’ve also identified three stocks poised to benefit from the finance sector-led recession they believe has to kick off in 2008.</p>
<p><a href="http://click.fspeletters.com/t/17960/1933929/157017/0/" target="_blank">Click here to read the Crisis Report</a></p>
<p>Not only is the most dramatic asset bubble of modern times clearly over&#8230; not only are the recent falls in real estate and equities just a taste of what’s to come&#8230; but a sector that accounts for nearly one third of Britain’s entire economy is about to get hammered!</p>
<p>If City activity dries up, so does growth, says Damian Reece in <em>The Daily Telegraph</em>. “The entire southeast, from house prices to employment, is a geared play on global financial markets.”</p>
<p>According to its analysts this could be one of the biggest challenges to face the British economy in <em>The Fleet Street Letter’s</em> entire 70-year history.</p>
<p>And it’s hurtling towards your savings and investments like a freight train even as you read this.</p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re not ready yet, you&#8217;ll want to be soon.</p>
<p><em> The Fleet Street Letter</em> has been helping its readers prepare their portfolios for the coming crisis since October 2005.</p>
<p>With the situation deteriorating daily, they’ve decided to issue some advice to you today.</p>
<p>Specifically, the team have identified three “gloom loving” stocks they believe will thrive during the finance sector-led recession.</p>
<p>This could be the most important investment advice you read this year.</p>

<p>P.S. If like 75% of the country you’re fed up with the way Labour are running the country into the ground… you may as well take the chance to make a little bit of money on the back of their ineptitude (it’s something that makes me feel a little better anyway). So give our report a read – you will not be disappointed…</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>   Shock horror, Gordon Brown says: “Sorry” Following on from his embarrassing climb down over the 10p tax rate – after the threat of a backbench rebellion – Gordon Brown has gone on the apology offensive. Perhaps he’s trying to limit some of the damage done to his credibility from the lambasting he recently received from Labour’s former chief fundraiser – Lord Levy. </p>
<p>Who stated last Sunday that Tony Blair is convinced that Brown can’t possibly beat David Cameron in a General Election.</p>
<p>Or maybe he’s put out by the fact that he’s having to promise concessions to all the people who are going to suffer from the abolition of the 10p tax.</p>
<p>Either way… as Brown staggers around the country putting all&#8230;</p>]]></description>

Perhaps he’s trying to limit some of the damage done to his credibility from the lambasting he recently received from Labour’s former chief fundraiser – Lord Levy. <span id="more-1649"></span></p>
<p>Who stated last Sunday that Tony Blair is convinced that Brown can’t possibly beat David Cameron in a General Election.</p>
<p>Or maybe he’s put out by the fact that he’s having to promise concessions to all the people who are going to suffer from the abolition of the 10p tax.</p>
<p>Either way… as Brown staggers around the country putting all his efforts into convincing us he’s not a wounded animal… who’s looking into fixing the crippled economy?</p>
<p>Alistair Darling? He doesn’t operate without Brown standing right behind him… does he?</p>
<p>It’s all very well for Brown to come out and say he’s not going to concentrate on: “gossip and rumour.” But it seems to me that this is all he has been doing lately.</p>
<p>What is the point of all these publicity stunts and safe facing exercises when we have real problems to solve? A cynic might say it’s to detract attention from what you’re actually doing… i.e. NOTHING…</p>
<p>Well I think that fixing our problems is a better avenue to attempt to win a General Election on… as opposed to publicity and spin.</p>
<p>The finance sector makes up one third of our economic output, contributes £20 billion to the trade balance&#8230; and accounted for nearly HALF of UK GDP growth in 2007.</p>
<p>There are now more finance sector workers in Britain than there are construction workers, farmers and factory workers combined.</p>
<p>And they are in trouble!</p>
<p>What’s being done to fix our problems – other than our Leader touring the country to let people know he’s still got a job? Nothing that’s what!</p>
<p>And before anyone points to a £50 billion bail-out…</p>
<p>WE’RE THE ONE’S PAYING FOR THAT BAIL-OUT… YOU AND I… OUT OF OUR OWN POCKETS…</p>
<p>It’s not a bail-out… it’s us shoring up things that are failing – so they fail a bit more slowly…</p>
<p>Even the City is saying that this won’t solve a thing. One investment banker we know said:</p>
<p>“The terms of the Bank of England facility are pretty rubbish, I doubt many banks will use it, you can get better terms privately through the Repo market. I think it’s just a fig leaf to cover the Bank’s total inaction on the sub-prime crisis.”</p>
<p>But hey – slip a sly supposed bail-out in to the mix, whilst getting publicity with one of the world’s most beautiful people – AND MAYBE NOBODY WILL NOTICE THAT THIS £50 BILLION SOLUTION IS A LOAD OF RUBBISH.</p>
<p>WELL GUESS WHAT… WE’VE NOTICED… AND WE’RE PRETTY DARN RILED AT THE CHEEK OF IT ALL.</p>
<p>Let me ask you something dear reader…</p>
<p>What do you think’s going to happen to the domestic economy&#8230; and to YOUR savings and investments… if Britain’s ‘Miracle Money Machine’ has its output slashed by one tenth&#8230; one third&#8230; or even half?</p>

<p>PS: <em>The Fleet Street Letter</em> says: “If you want to keep your hand in the stock market, these are the simplest ways I know to position yourself to potentially grow wealthier from a likely recession in 2008 and 2009. One 5 minute call to your broker and you’re done.”</p>
