It would be charitable to call it eccentric, but the UK government's latest pay action is simply crazy.

Schmeflation, says Gordon Brown.
Devalued, discredited and delusional. Jim Rogers might be a tad hyperbolic at times, but it's hard not to view the UK as "finished". At the very least, it's on the floor and gasping.
