So they've used a €650m IMF emergency loan and €100m of cash reserves to pay their latest IMF debt repayment.

That was their rainy day money.

Tis like wonga but on a much bigger scale.

How much of the debt is interest on loans to pay off debts?



Only it's not. They've been given terms far more favourable than they should have.

As they admit themselves now, they should never have been bailed out in the first place.


I see the Greek anti-austerity party is doing well.


I'd say the eu and IMF are doing their utmost to ensure they fail.

And your solution is? Bearing in mind the commercial banks took massive haircuts four years ago and what remains is debt to other counties.

They simply aren't though. Unless you mean that they are being nasty by saying "don't worry about all those billions you owe".

Set aside the money owed to the Commission and the Central Bank, do you have any understanding of how the IMF works?

I'm sure the bank could conjure money out of thin air!

It's not a bank, it's a pool and you clearly haven't a clue.

Sure they could Nick.
But what if that cancelled money meant that your teacher's pension was cut in half.

Would you be so flippant then?

Is that the tps that was in rude health (which had been verified) before the coalition came in but suddenly unaffordable? You know the pension pot where the government refused to issue the figures (a legal obligation) before saying it was running dry.

That's another thread Nick.

The flow of money is based upon confidence.....You cancel debt what you are really doing is cancelling someone's income somewhere else.

It does affect people........The crash eventually resulted in me losing my job.
