>> I put Volkswagen in front because I like the car. But it has nothing whatsoever to do with the discussion, so it isn't necessary. Reply to this message | Report message

Were in the same boat as the rest of Europe. The Eurozone is in near deflation. Japan is back in deflation. If 0.3 inflation is safety I dread what inflationary economy means. We are creating vast amount of low paid jobs because our productivity is so low. Role on 15 percent interest rates and 10% inflation. At least I would get a few more quid on my savings.

This is a shot in the dark, but you've never really studied economics, have you? Either that or you're a troll. Whichever, this would appear to be a pointless discussion. Reply to this message | Report message       1

I'll tell you what it means fluffy me ole mate, it means going out to work at 08:00 and by 17:00 the same day returning home knowing you worked your socks off all day and can't pay the mortgage because interest rates went up to 15% that day.

Not too much to smile about, made even worse by the fact that it was a Digital Health & Safety meeting with the HR group. Reply to this message | Report message

Ah, you remember that! Apparently just after HR asked for people to submit claims for personal items in their desks for which proof of ownership would not be required, the largest concentration of Mont Blanc pens in Northern Europe appeared. Reply to this message | Report message

>> I was in a meeting Basingstoke that day. >Thats a REALLY bad day then Oi! Basingstoke does not deserve your mockery. There are lots of very interesting roundabouts in Basingstoke, we have our own version of the Highway Code and a huge choice of fine dining establishments including three McDonalds. There are also ambitious plans to overtake Reading and eventually Slough as the destination of choice for tourists visiting the Thames Valley. A program is currently underway for residents to submit a slogan to promote the town but I'm struggling with too many superlatives. Reply to this message | Report message

We had 15% interest rates under a Conservative Government.Inflation under John Major reached a high of 10%. We were made bankrupt under the exchange rate mechanism. Our economy was so weak as interest rates rose from 10% to 15% in three hours. Reply to this message | Report message

It rose to 0.3% on an annual basis. It has been 26.9% in the mid seventies. I would rather have 0.3% and not 26.9% Reply to this message | Report message

I have no fear of deflation. I would rather have an economy with falling rather than rising prices. Reply to this message | Report message
