where as capitalism is coming along just fine and fucking dandy.
Capitalism is not perfect but it's better than the alternative, or would you prefer to live in a Communist state? |

It was very reassuring to see the US government effectively nationalising US banks recently.... Had Britain had a proper socialist government for the last 11 years, it could have done something useful like nationalising the railways. |

The railways are essentially nationalised under Network Rail as confirmed by Jack Straw in 2007. Perhaps it's better not to comment on other nationalisation projects, like, British Leyland, British Aerospace, British Steel, BP, BT (where it took literally 4 months at least to install a telephone line) NEB etc etc |

Not forgetting Northern Rock, and the £37bn taxpayers' bail-out of the banking industry...

The British coverage hasn't even started yet... Think I'll go with the BBC.

If I didn't have a job I'd drink tea and play football manager all night whilst watching this.
As it is I'm going to see the first results in around midnight and hopefully welcome Obama in the morning.

Craziness. I'm just about to chip downstairs to make a pot of tea. Good times.
Wish I had loads of beer though. Oh well.
