A book jam-packed with witty commentary on important matters of the day and other things, most of these stories were written after 2009, starting soon after the Credit Crunch had nearly sunk the world economy – and might yet do so. Consisting mostly of general rubbish, they do not pretend to compete with the analytical expertise of Robert Peston or experts in banks (Ha!) and governments (Ha ha!) but some of them may contain just a grain of truth or common sense. One or two have dispensed with the rubbish and contain considerably more truth, and a few are absolutely jam-packed with the truth. See if you can spot them.
