Google: "Gordon Brown Liar"

Just checking what traffic was floating by and I notice one visitor on the Google search "Gordon Brown Liar".

I was therefore most gratified to find a link back to this blog on the first page ( only Tim Worstall and Newport blog did better on the blogging front ).

So my challenge for today to you all is to knock me of that perch with posts of your own - you know you want to !

Note: Google can display search results biased to an individual - I've tried to log out etc to get a neutral picture, but perhaps I've made a mistake. Anyway its a worthy cause as Brown has told some real porkies recently - like about Boris Johnson plans for police or Conservative spending plans at the 2005 election.

The pound in your pocket

"We used to think that you could spend your way out of a recession and increase employment by cutting taxes and boosting government spending. I tell you in all candour that that option no longer exists." James Callaghan

“The trouble with theoretical economists is that they don't understand that when you have a deficit, you can only finance it by borrowing, and you've got to persuade people that it's worth lending money to you and that they'll get their money back... there's no way of escaping it.” Dennis Healey during the 1976 Stirling Crisis.

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens ... Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of over-turning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." John Maynard Keynes, 1920.

"To preserve [the people's] independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our selection between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude." Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States of America,1801-1809.

Inflation is taxation without legislation .. Milton Friedman
