Brown's Britain

clipped from www.telegraph.co.uk Britain faces worst recession in living memory, Cabinet Minister Tessa Jowell admits Tessa Jowell, the Olympics Minister, said the forthcoming downturn was expected to be "deeper than any that we have known". The admission is the most pessimistic forecast so far issued by a Government minister. It raises the spectre of a recession lasting throughout 2009 and part of 2010 - worse than the recessions of the early 1990s and 1980s.

When you publicly back the man who has led us into recession, how can you support him as he digs us deeper into the mire?
