World recession declared: Official!

Like we didn’t already know there was a world recession?

Last year I podcasted a sort of ‘Dragon’s Den meets Question Time’ event in Plymouth. Four out of five people on the panel expressed the view that we were all at fault for talking ourselves into a recession.

I know that banking is built on the idea of confidence – something without weight or substance. But the idea that the media can really push the global economy into recession is… is.. well, a kind of cultural delusion of grandeur, if you ask me.

Well, you didn’t. Anyway, I heard somewhere on the radio that we were in a recession – official. So if, like me, you weren’t afraid to say ‘recession’ last year you can consider yourself well and truly responsible.
