Gordon Brown brings Britain to the edge of bankruptcy - Telegraph

Gordon Brown brings Britain to the edge of bankruptcy - Telegraph: "The country stands on the precipice. We are at risk of utter humiliation, of London becoming a Reykjavik on Thames and Britain going under. Thanks to the arrogance, hubristic strutting and serial incompetence of the Government and a group of bankers, the possibility of national bankruptcy is not unrealistic."
