I also had to laugh at the one news reporter the other night when he said that the situation was likely to worsen with ‘massive’redundancies looming. Crikey what scare mongering journalism. Yes unemployment may increase in the short term but with so much uncertainty around to say that redundancies will be massive is just not fair to the average punter who (rightly or wrongly) believes what’s reported in the innacurate media we call 6 oçlock news.

I thought I would also highlight the extent of similar commentary by Bernard Hickey on Interest.co.nz in his video blog piece ""Stressed financiers put overdue borrowers to the sword" - again I have been able through the beauty of social media to set the record straight in terms of facts.
