George Osborne to Parliament two weeks ago…

“Let me be clear, whatever the Commission President says, British taxpayers will not be contributing to the €urozone’s bailout of Greece. Full stop.”

    Looks like the recession will continue gaining pace. To those of you who say we are not in recession just look at the jobless figures rising, companies closing down. Looks like we have real growth eh?

    In a statement later to the House of Commons, Mr Osborne said there may be a case for further increasing the budget of the IMF to keep pace with the size of the global economy.

    But he said: “Let me be very clear, we are only prepared to see an increase in the resources the IMF makes available to all countries of the world.

    “We would not be prepared to see IMF resources reserved only for the eurozone.”

Ai Weiwei in China fighting the taxman…

“Under totalitarian rule, no one is protected by law. We will all be the same helpless victims. When a country insists on its lies, it’s time for an artist to bring forth change.”
