The Perfect Storm

By Vladimir Putin

I just want to remind you that, just a year ago, American delegates speaking from this rostrum emphasised the US economy's fundamental stability and its cloudless prospects. Today, investment banks, the pride of Wall Street, have virtually ceased to exist. In just 12 months, they have posted losses exceeding the profits they made in the last 25 years. This example alone reflects the real situation better than any criticism.

Residents, councillors and school heads are objecting to a proposed 15 Metre mast close to two secondary schools and residential properties at the M6 Junction 9 exit.

Petitions have been gathered as well as private objections being sent to planning officers in Sandwell.

As usual, neither councillors, school heads or residents were informed at the time stated in the planning application, and notices on lamp-posts were put up barely two weeks before the closing date for objections.

France paralysed by a wave of strike action, the boulevards of Paris resembling a debris-strewn battlefield. The Hungarian currency sinks to its lowest level ever against the euro, as the unemployment figure rises. Greek farmers block the road into Bulgaria in protest at low prices for their produce. New figures from the biggest bank in the Baltic show that the three post-Soviet states there face the biggest recessions in Europe.
