No, and it doesn't look like it's going to happen anytime soon either.
I'm convinced we WILL break the world record currently held by Iraq.
Yes, we CAN !

No problem, things seem to actually go better without an active government than with one
The outgoing government is just doing some housekeeping - which is actually what it should always do.
We only need to convince the financial markets of that little fact.

We've already got laws aplenty anyway, so we don't really need any more of them.

Stability looks like being the key. That Gapminder website included a neat lecture on why although we think that free, democratic societies tend to be the ones with the best economic development its actually the ones that are the most stable for the longest period of time.

I'm still waiting for our new government to do anything it said it would before being elected, other than supposedly deep spending cuts which actually only slow down the increase in spending and not reduce it.

Anyway this is not a political thread...
