Tim Congdon
Not seen him for a long time, and he was on Newsnight. I didn't really understand his argument, he seemed to be saying that the Government must keep Northern Rock going until a private buyer moved in. Very confusing, but he was certainly more interventionist than Vince Cable. But I guess that's the current Tory position [Whoops - Tim Congdon is a UKIP supporter] - I still have no idea if David Cameron thinks our population is too high, low or about right.Update: Watching it again, it is still strange. He seemed to be deliberately misunderstanding Vince Cable's point about new loans being offered at 120% of the value of the house, with an average figure on its old loans.
