Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

(Reuters) - Britain may be as much as three quarters of the way through the process of working off the high debt levels which have weighed on the economy since the financial crisis, a top Bank of England policymaker said on Friday.

Paul Fisher, one of nine members of the bank's rate-setting committee, said growth would remain weak while Britain's households, public sector, banks and other companies sought to get themselves back to financial health.

"In my view we are maybe two thirds to three quarters of the way through in each case, varying both across and within sectors," Fisher said in notes for a speech.

At least he's honest SD.
"There is nothing scientific or ‘official' in that assessment," he added. "It's just a personal best guess on the back of how the economy is behaving.

It's just his opinion :LOL:
Mind you they pay him lots of money so his opinion MUST be more valid than any of ours? :confused:

hehe true,

we have a record of their views, also those views of the MPC. i go back and check what the mpc were saying at the height of the credit induced boom, maybe one man in 10 had any inkling that everything would collapse. I know which economists correctly diagnosed the problems with the US/UK economy and I read/follow their views.
