It’s 2005. Tony Blair is about to fight his second general election as prime minister. To pay for the campaign, Labour secretly borrows millions of pounds from some kind-hearted businessmen.

Many Britons will know exactly how the Labour party feels. Labour has presided over the biggest credit boom ever. Britons’ personal debt now exceeds the country’s GDP.

Labour has called the donors together for an emergency meeting. Here’s what a Labour spokesman will say (while looking at the floor and scratching the back of his head sheepishly):

"Erm, yeah, listen guys. About that £10 million we owe you. Erm... bit of a problem. Any chance we can work something out? A repayment plan? Stretched out over, say, nine years?"

That’s right. Labour could ask for up to nine years to pay the money back. The Secret Millionaires have agreed to the meeting in principle. But I reckon there’ll be a few heated words aimed in the direction of red faces once the meeting starts...

Let’s take a step back and look at what this all means. On a fundamental level, it’s scary. The party running the country cannot pay its debts!

It’s also worrying on a political level. Labour’s battered finances mean ... Read More

currencies When you think of exchanging currencies you probably think of changing your money in Thomas Cook before you go on holiday ... Well think again – because buying and selling pounds, euros, dollars and yen on the world currency markets is one of the most exciting and potentially profitable forms of investing around!
funds Investing in funds can be a useful way of putting your money into the stock market. It spreads your risk across a range of companies. It allows you to benefit from the expertise of City professionals with their access to extensive research, analysis and little-known information.
commodities Commodities of all types: metals, hydrocarbons, and agricultural products are all more expensive now than they were just a few years ago. Silver, oil, gas, timber, sugar, coffee, cocoa, orange juice – you name it; it’s been in the news some time in the past 12 months. Why? Because the biggest bull market of the 21st century so far has been in commodities.
foreign investment Many investors believe that putting money in foreign markets – even in the US and Europe – is somehow more risky than investing in the UK. This is just not true any more. The single most important reason serious investors turn to overseas markets to boost performance is diversification. If you only hold shares in UK companies, then when UK markets slump so do your returns. However, if you hold shares in more than one market, your returns are not tied to the performance of a single region.
spread betting In the UK, a relatively new phenomenon is allowing private investors more flexibility than ever in the financial markets ... Financial spread betting services offer a way to profit from the rise or fall of stocks, currencies, commodities, and even bonds.
shares Investing in the stock market can be one of the fastest ways of increasing your wealth. Although it suffers from ups and downs, history shows that it is the best place for your savings over the long term. Learning about the stock market takes time and there is no guarantee that you will make money - even the most experienced investors get it wrong. That's why it's often a good idea to seek expert recommendations instead of trying to go it alone.
penny shares FSP Invest is a great place to learn about penny shares and how you can use them to make potentially huge gains on the stock market. If you're new to the world of penny shares get ready to discover one of the best ways to increase your investment capital. And if you're a seasoned penny share trader, you'll find this site equally as fulfilling as we reveal all the all the secrets, gossip and rumours right from the heart of the City.
gold Paper money has no intrinsic value. Gold on the other hand, is a scarce and indestructible substance with many unique properties. It offers a reliable store of value and is traded on a global market. And in today’s world, the gold market can be accessed by the majority of investors.
tax optimisation Four-out-of-five UK adults will pay too much tax this year ... A total of £7.6 BILLION was overpaid in tax in 2006 and the figure will be even bigger this year. There's a good chance you're contributing hundreds of pounds to this. And if you're fairly wealthy, have more than one property, own a business, offshore assets, have a legacy to leave to your children, or if you're thinking of retiring abroad ... you could be wasting thousands!
