When Will This Recession End?
When Will This Credit Crisis Ease?
They talk about the green shoots of recovery; well I have not seen any, have you? I personally think that it is a form of increase confidence trick; an attempt to make people believe that the worst of this current recession is over; I work within the cost reduction specialists sector and things are still quite tough here.
They, and when I say they I am talking about the Government and business leaders, are no doubt hoping that this new confidence (false as it undoubtedly is) will spur people on to start spending money again; to start buying houses etc. In reality the only way this credit crunch will ease is when the banks start to lend money again, at reasonable interest rates. I am already started to read reports about the ways in which these bankers have returned to their greedy bonus culture? The bigger question is why are the Government allowing them to make the same mistakes again when we, the taxpayer, are the major shareholder? There is a real lack of leadership at the moment and it is about time somebody at the top started to crack the whip.
Now I am not some financial whizz kid who thinks he has all of the answers. I am in fact just an average working class guy from the UK who works for a company that offers advice about training for foster carers and who also has a partnership in a company that offers affordable composite doors. I do however watch and listen in amazement at times when I see what some of the politicians and greedy bankers say – they really are not in the real world – they probably would have absolutely no idea as to the average cost of a pint of milk or loaf of broad – they are complete jokers and a waste of space.
I personally believe that this current credit crisis will last until the end of 2010, at least. I know that this seem rather negative but it is just my opinion on the situation. With a stronger leadership this would no doubt change but while the Labour cronies continue to bicker and squabble what chance have we got? Bring in Vince Cable I say as the new Labour leader!
