THAT'S ALL WE HAVE TIME FOR

In the spirit of 'The Gord taketh, and the Gord, er, taketh yet more..'

I was just over at my Mum's, and sadly News 24 was already on. For this brief moment with the Chancellor on, in full waffle mode.

FULL CREDIT to the blonde for trying to make the point that the Europeans don't seem to be facing the same level of reaction in their banking community as does the UK in the face of this 'world crisis', especially in light of Mr. Brown's claim that the UK is well placed to weather this better than most.

Mr. Darling totally ignores this and goes straight back to talking about the bl**dy US situation.

He is either a liar or simply an idiot, yet will retire soon on a whopping pension co-funded by the likes of my Mum, who I have to care for.

However, and this is what gets me, this promising avenue of 'debate' is cut short...again (some Labour Pol waffling earlier seemed to be caught out on 'fact' by Rod Liddle in a piece on smoking, leaving me none the wiser as to what the truth was, and /or who these days is capable of speaking it)... probably to go to a critical skateboarding turtle update, by that most annoying of all news editorial/reporting/presenting mechanisms... 'THAT'S ALL WE HAVE TIME FOR'.

Why do we have 24/7 'news' if it is then incapable of running with a promising story as it unfolds!
