    I'm sorry. Perhaps we should all doff our cap to the head of the CBI, dissolve Parliament and let her and her team run the country.

    Hang on, I've got and even better idea.

    What about the previous CBI DG Digby Jones? Similar but more impressive credentials. I'm sure you would endorse his opinion over the current DG's as he had double the time as head and he's also served as a Minister of State for Trade and a UK Ambassador for Trade and Investment.

    I'm sure Stolly and I can embrace this common ground - Digby Jones for PM. That will fix everything for sure.

    Does this relate to your post yesterday about something the Director General of the CBI said on Radio 4? If so that's very odd because I don't remember commenting on them. This on the grounds that I'd not actually heard what she'd said.

    Its a shame you can't demonstrate it though.
    Oh come on Stagger, that's not fair. I know Stolly regularly gets his facts completely wrong but he is very creative. He's excellent at making things up.

    Uh no, I don’t. I live in a country where a minority rule so long as that minority is larger than any other.

    You will see on some of the other posts this matter dealt with.
    Like pretty much everything in this thread. Commenting on it doesn’t constitute it as dealt with. 😉

    I see posters are still asserting opinions, now supported by derogatory personal attacks, as FACTS.

    The Grump kind of has a point. Anonymous posters sniping at eachother doesn’t really add anything to the debate does it?
