In this respect it even begs the Q should MPs be even in charge of teh country? I personally would rather someone with proven record in finance such as Bob Diamond be in charge of teh Budget ( And whether you like or dislike Banks right now, check out his performance and you will see he delivers the goods..... )
"Someone with a proven record in finance": like the guys at Goldman Sachs, or AIG ... I don't be thinking so. Perhaps the people who are most skilled in income management are those who manage to get by on a small, fixed income. I'm with Cashy on this one.
