outrage

so gordon brown is irritated by comments of german finance minister steinbrueck in newsweek about the hysterical dishing out of billions of pounds in britain, without obvious positive effect on the economy? good! about time someone criticised the british government, as no-one in the uk does (here brown is allowed to call himself saviour of the world). after all, it is only a matter of months until britain will want to join the euro, and then this massive debt by overspending is no longer a british problem, but a european one.

in the meantime, the government mouthpiece, bbc, is delighted to be able to stir up some anti-german sentiment (again). not learnt anything then, clearly.
