“There’s a huge amount of bitterness and frustration over the government’s policy. People feel like Saab hasn’t been give a chance and I share their anger,” said Social Democratic party leader Mona Sahlin to TT.’

She really doesn’t get it does she?

Why should I as a Swedish taxpayer have my hard earned cash go to a failing car manufacturer?

I am paying a lot more tax in Sweden then back in the UK and I think now I care a lot more about what the government spends it on then ever before.

This week Saab stopped production because of bills owing and Customs wouldnt let raw materials for Saab leave the port.

Lets remember Ms Sahlin, its not the Swedish Government’s fault thats it in a mess so why should they throw billions of kronor at it?

Another good reason not to vote Social Democratic methinks!

Have you been following the bank problem in the UK? It all is such a mess and it and seems it is happening there too.
