SHOCK, HORROR: CONTINENTALS DRIVE UP BRITISH GAS PRICES!
Having freeloaded on BRITISH gas for decades the GERMANS and FRENCH now want to charge us EXTRA for giving us OUR SHARE of RUSSIAN gas. Our Minister, Alistair Darling, is fighting to prevent FOREIGN utility companies from exploiting BRITISH CONSUMERS by making EXORBITANT PROFITS, driving up our inflation, and damaging our competitiveness abroad.
Of course there will always be the prophets of doom, naysayers and other continentals indulging in SHADENFREUDE that we gave them our gas so cheaply. That's the thanks you get when you try to help those French people. For years we have propped up their SCLEROTIC economies with BRITISH invention, innovation, flexibility, and know how. They in turn kept their markets closed to our INVESTMENT with all those EUROCRATIC regulations.
Mr. Brown should waste no time to give M. Sarkozy a piece of his mind and tell him we want our gas back! Index of Frank's Diaries
...prophets of doom, naysayers and other continentals indulging in that old Jerry insult SHADENFREUDE because we gave them our gas so cheap. That's the thanks you get for trying to help people like the French, as we Brits learned at Dunkirk. For years...
