Asked if he should stay in his job he said: "There are many people who could take over but I think I can steer this economy through difficult times."

"I have done it before and I can do it again," he told the BBC.

Surely you mean "I fvcked it up and I'm sorry"

Can you believe the cheek of the man? ..... He has some brass neck that one.  eeek:

There was a blog or something commenting recently on his character... I'll try to find it.

No ability to apologise, no humility, seriously flawed... a nasty character

I have to admit when he was setting out the new laws the other day I was cracked up. As much as I'd love to own my own place there isnt a chance in hell of me part buying somewhere if the government owns the rest of it. I wouldnt trust them with a wendy housr for crying out loud.

After all the blunders that have occurred over the last 12 months due to government incompetence I would be more confident if Homer Simpson was in charge of saving our economy
