UK Debt Not long ago here in the UK we had a surplus and all the media would talk about was what to spend it on, wiser people would’ve thought to pay down the debt, but then its been taught to get used to credit, there’s no urgency. Even among us ordinary credit consumers many have bad credit scores and things are not improving, according to breadmarket the credit crisis plunged more people into bad credit which doesn’t help given how hard it already is to get a loan. Anyway, the new government will try and sort this out though its difficult to see where the money needed is going to come from, they’ll have to be creative and come up with ways of making money.
