Mrs Notasheep wonders

I mentioned to Mrs NotaSheep this morning that Blackpool's match with Manchester United had been cancelled due to the weather. This is unusual I said as top teams have under pitch heating but Blackpool are newly promoted so maybe they don't. Hmmm relied Mrs NotaSheep, I don't believe you "if they have under-pitch heating how come we don't see steam rising from the pitch on a hot day?"

Can anyone help me out here?

Does the size of the UK national debt scare you? It bloody well should

This Burning Our Money article scares the pants off of me, how about you? Here's the beginning of the article:

'As we've blogged many times, our real National Debt is far bigger than the government officially acknowledges. When we calculated the real debt for the TPA this year, we estimated the true overall total at around £8 trillion, nine times the official total, and over £300,000 for every single household in Britain. '

Here's the conclusion:

'But when you sit down and do some arithmetic, it does look horribly like default is the only real way of cutting the debt as much as it needs to be cut. Default on all those grandiose pension promises made by successive generations of politicos since Lloyd George launched the state pension one hundred years ago.

Never ever trust politicians who claim they can give you something for nothing. Try to remember that in future.'

Depressed yet?
