Those of you who were worried about who is exactly is in charge of the UK need worry no more, Lord Mandelson has revealed that he is in charge and the person where the "buck stops".
In an interview with The Today programme he said:
"The spending period currently operating in Government stretches beyond the next election and therefore it is reasonable to review public spending at that time."
Adding that the Chancellor has already "made that judgment".
By making that statement in public, he has tied both the Chancellor's and the Prime Minister's hands.
Now all we need to know is who exactly is in charge of the Tripartite regulatory system; the Bank of England, the FSA or the Treasury?
As I have suspected for a long time, Mandy is not just a passenger on the Gravy Train - he's driving it !
