The vote on Greek austerity measures should be in shortly, hopefully the strikes/protest going on now will subside. Have to go along with Mr. Candor, higher taxes won’t create jobs or solve the crisis. Warning , gridlock ahead. Focus will shift around tonight from Greece , to Kiwi and Aussie employment numbers, and the aftermath of the Obama re-election just to keep us somewhat entertained.
If that fails you can always go and watch one of Gerry’s’ top 50 greatest films. I would go with Shawshank and Braveheart.
