    What's not to like Eric ?

    At least we're now going to ride out the storm together.

    Where would you like me to start? Anyway your PM your system I just don't like a new PM being appointed mid term. Oh I know the electorate don't vote for a PM etc etc but they do really. Good luck with the approaching winter months they could be a challenge in more ways than one.

    Think that what you'll find is that the announcement will go beyond what Labour & the Lib Dems have been proposing.

    One chance to change public opinion and it would be a real own goal not to take the opportunity.

    How can the UK afford an energy support package when national debt as a % of GDP is so high?

    Maybe we’re copying America who are $30trillion in debt, with no chance of ever paying it off, and just keep on getting more and more in debt.

    Doesn’t seem to bother them.

    Sounds like a plan :biggrin:

    The only reason I noticed was our lot were getting all heated up about our debt being about 50% of GDP so I had a look at other countries, your debt is about 110% of GDP and the US 125% or thereabout. It got me then thinking though which countries are not in debt. It turns out perhaps Lichtenstein hasn't got a debt.

    In this instance the energy crisis has arrived with impeccable timing.

    Thatcher needed the Falklands but now Truss has an almost unprecedented opportunity to turn a crisis into a political victory.
