As Gordon Brown condemns free markets and therefore by extension freedom itself, I learn of Alistair Darling’s early days as the ‘bearded Trot’ who ‘wanted to nationalise the banks’.
Despite having read Boris Johnson’s cheering Have I Got Views for You, I feel the only solution is to throw myself from an aeroplane repeatedly tomorrow, two and a half miles above the Spanish plains, and hope for the best.
We can turn this around, but it’s going to take some work!
