[Blogs] Where is the money coming from?

Everyone who is asked "Where did the govt get £500bn" in interviews with journalists ducks the question. Yvette Cooper and Gordon have both ducked it directly. Why won't they say? .

Robert Peston - The letters of complaint flood in

Now fellow blogger Barnacle Bill has sent a letter to his local MP, Yvette Cooper: "Dear Yvette Cooper, As you are a member of the Treasury team I am sure you have been alarmed at the recent falls in share prices of UK banks, often caused by speculative reporting on the news, mainly the BBC. In particular by Robert Peston, the BBC's business editor, who appears to be receiving privileged, market sensitive...

The Party of the People or the Party people

Yesterday was a good day to bury news. As Brown and Darling treated the rest of us like serfs with no say, to their robber barons, Ed Balls and Yvette Cooper were cleared by their fellow MP's of abusing their allowances to buy a second house using taxpayers funds. This morning I can only draw the comparison of how wretched the serfs of this country are now treated. For obvious reasons I am going to...

Not Guilty: Balls

I went to the Vote Office in the Members' Lobby to collect my copy of the Standards and Privileges Committee report "Conduct of Ed Balls and Yvette Cooper". "They've been very popular, those," the attendant told me. "I bet they have!" I replied. MPs love nothing more than reading about sleaze allegations against other MPs. Ed and Yvette, chief cronies in the Court of King Gordon, were investigated...

Ed Balls and Yvette Cooper - Quelle surprise

The Telegraph report that: "Ed Balls and Yvette Cooper, the husband and wife Cabinet ministers, have been cleared of misusing their expenses following a probe by the Parliamentary standards watchdog." I have no comment to make except - a good day to release this news, n'est pas?

As shares plummet in London, a bit of common sense from its Mayor

And lunacy from the Treasury Shares continue to fall in London, as the credit crisis continues to take its toll on the banks and the economy, and on TV we still have to listen to that little Hobbit, Yvette Cooper - Treasury Minister and Mrs Balls, - as she continues to try to defend her Government’s record. At [...]

Today: 0810 UK Treasury 'has a contingency plan' 06 Oct 08

Banks the world over are failing, with German rescues following the US bail-out. Robert Peston says there is a UK contingency plan, but Treasury Secretary Yvette Cooper says it would be "irresponsible to speculate".

Oh dear Nick, oh dear

Looks like Nick Cohen has fallen for this "if we just had Glass Steagall we’d be fine" line. At the Labour party conference, Yvette Cooper dismissed as too ‘radical’ suggestions that the government should separate high street and investment banking - in other words, prevent ordinary bank customers’ money being endangered in risky speculations. Too radical? [...]

The demonisation of foreigners

Above: the use of foreigners as scapegoats for a nation's problems has a long (and disreputable) history. Several times yesterday, in an interview for the Politics Show , government minister Yvette Cooper said the economic crisis "came from America". New York financiers are to blame for our troubles (trade unionists and Scottish Nationalists have blamed "Non-dom spivs and speculators", non-dom being...

B&B - it has gone

According to the Telegraph , the Treasury minister Yvette Cooper bowed to the inevitable and confirmed that the Government was "stepping in" to nationalize Britain’s eighth biggest mortgage lender. It is not hard to see why the B&B had to join NRK: On Friday, its shares were trading at just 20p Credit default swaps cost 1500 basis points. On Saturday, the bank was in the early stages of a run, with...

Official: Bradford & Bingley Savers to be Protected

As we discussed last night, B&B will be nationalized. It looks like U.K. officials have learned about bank runs from the Northern Rock collapse, and will announce some sort of plan to protect savers. From the Telegraph: Financial crisis: Bradford & Bingley savers told money is safe Yvette Cooper, the minister, confirmed that the Government was “stepping in” to rescue the bank, Britain’s eighth
