...here in palookaville...

...From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia...

Public sector borrowing requirement (PSBR) is the old name for the budget deficit in the United Kingdom. The budget deficit has been renamed to the public sector net cash requirement (PSNCR) to avoid confusion with net borrowing.

PSBR occurs when expenditures for the government activities in the public sector of the economy exceed the income. The resulting deficit is then financed by borrowing funds from the public, usually by the means of government gilts.

of course this has helped gull the sheeple...soon we will have to wake up...from a dream to a nightmare..]]>

...The government's statement was released after close of business in Dubai, and on the eve of a public holiday. Markets will not reopen until next week.

It came after bond prices had risen on expectations of full repayment. Earlier in the day, Dubai's government announced it had raised a $5bn bond for its Financial Support Fund from government-owned banks in neighbouring Abu Dhabi.

Dubai was among the most dramatic victims of the credit crunch, with property prices halving from their highs in September 2008, leaving a huge overhang of debt.

Much of it was in the hands of government-owned companies, with Nakheel, which has been forced to slow work on show-piece developments like its artificial island chain The World, among the most prominent....
