The only reason i can find why i might like this short so much is due to its dramatic music……

I have been reading a few peoples articles (<– Never trust people who refer to themselves in the third person) on the most recent news in the UK’s economic woes. I don’t usually deride other people’s opinions (honestly) however I did read one article asking why the government aren’t going to privatise Woolworths.

When the government bails out a bank it gets a stake in the bank and hopefully when things recover can recoup any loses additionally it saves itself having to compensate that banks customers to the tune of up to £50,000 each which the government will have no chance of recouping ever.

If Woolworths collapse’s the government isn’t liable to pay its customers anything. I personally as a consumer would be far more upset at losing a £10,000 bank balance than the thought of losing such a wonderful pick and mix selection in Woolly’s.
