Austin Mitchell is the only Labour MP whose blog is in my blogroll. He's old and ill, and held in complete contempt by NuLab and its acolytes. His blogging is less frequent and scrappier now, but he does continue to speak truth unto The Net.
This post makes a very valid point: that if Tony had got his way and we entered the Eurozone ten years ago, our economy would now be completely screwed. What he does not say, however, is that in order to get out of this mess we're going to have devalue the currency and have a raging dose of inflation. This will save the economy, but only by sacrificing the savings of the old and the middle class, but since when did Gordan care a damn about them?
