[QUOTE]Originally posted by Not Invented Here: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [qb] <blockquote>"...but I've never seen or heard of a government this blatantly incompetent or so obviously corrupt as this one."</blockquote> I assume you mean "a [i]British[/i] government". Because, if not, I could point out that we've got you beat over here right now, just for one example. [/qb][/QUOTE]Given recent history I'd have to agree with you on that one. But right at this moment, and particularly in the area of press relations, the current British government is just unfathomably bad. For example, this week our chancellor has managed to bugger the housing market even more by refusing to rule out a previously unthinkable 'holiday' on stamp duty (People are now refusing to buy and sell property on the tiny chance they can save several thousand pounds, which reinforces the current problems in the British market that too few transactions are being carried out). The amount of dithering and indecision by our government is unbelievable. I find it ironic that the one of the things I most disliked about Blair - his slick media image and iron control of the press - is now the thing I miss most about him. How the hell has Brown managed to screw things up so badly? It's not like he's come up with any truly awful policies and yet he's managing to bore his way into an early grave. [/QB][/QUOTE]
