Today, at last, on the Jeremy Vine show, I was allowed to explain how the government should deal with Northern Rock, and set about getting our money back from the ailing mortgage bank. I was also allowed to debate why nationalisation would be too expensive and too risky for taxpayers with Vince Cable.
I trust also it was good radio for them. It was certainly more balanced and more lively than the Today programme’s fawning interviews with the Lib Dems, with no-one allowed to challenge their nostra.
