*Bagaimana Inggris menyelamatkan ekonominya yang sudah babak belur serta dalam kondisi bahaya ketika:
- Sumber-sumber ekonomi penting sudah dikuasai sekelompok kecil orang saja? - Aset-aset finansil mayoritas dikuasai sekelompok kecil orang saja? - Memiliki hutang yang jauh lebih banyak dari pada apa yang bisa dihasilkannya? Ada profesor atau doktor ekonomi yang memiliki ilmu cukup untuk menyelesaikannya?* http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2079372/Clegg-need-rescue-mission-battered-economy.html?ito=feeds-newsxml Clegg is even more in need of a 'rescue mission' than our battered economy By Nick Wood<http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/search.html?s=&authornamef=Nick+Wood> Last updated at 1:13 PM on 28th December 2011 Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2079372/Clegg-need-rescue-mission-battered-economy.html#ixzz1hrIWULks In his New Year message, Nick Clegg said that he was engaged in a 'rescue mission' to save the UK economy. The economy may be in a parlous state, but it is Clegg and his Liberal Democrats who remain most in need of rescue. Clegg enters 2012 with his party’s poll rating at roughly half the level of actual votes won in the 2010 general election. His personal scores – minus 19 per cent on the latest ICM survey – are dreadful and show no signs of recovery. And on the issue that matters most to the public, the state of the economy, he hardly registers on the political Richter scale. The galling thing for Clegg is that having sold his birthright for a ministerial Jaguar, he is failing to get any credit for the austerity measures taken by the Coalition Government. These continue to enjoy public support, yet all the political benefits continue to flow to the Conservatives. The British people regard the spending cuts imposed by the Government as a painful but necessary antidote to the profligacy of the Labour years.

They certainly don’t like it – 62 per cent say they will be personally worse off in 2012 – but they show little sign of withdrawing support for the Cameron/Osborne measures designed to eliminate the deficit by 2015.

Clegg does not even feature in the question, let alone the answer. And therein lie the seeds of his personal political failure. Clegg may be Deputy Prime Minister, he may have canoodled with Cameron in the Downing Street rose garden when the Coalition was formed, and he may have been given ample opportunity to establish himself on the national stage, but he has failed to associate himself with the grown-up politics of the crusade to balance the nation’s books. For this he has only himself to blame. He starts his message with an echo of the 'blood, toil, tears and sweat' of a latter-day Churchill, but he soon veers off to the kindergarten, boasting about the alleged goodies that the nice, fluffy Liberals have forced the nasty Conservatives to adopt – things like taking nearly a million low-paid workers out of income tax altogether, the pupil premium for underprivileged children, the Green Investment Bank and more apprenticeships. Set aside the fact that almost all of these are Tory policies anyway. Clegg’s 'have my cake and eat it' strategy is fundamentally flawed. Voters are not going to flock back to him because they are burning with excitement over the Green Investment Bank (whatever that is). But they might accord him some respect if – on the big issues such as the economy and Europe – they saw that he and his Lib Dem Cabinet colleagues were genuinely working with Cameron and Osborne to put the country back on his feet. [image: Lib Dem members might support Nick Clegg more if he committed to coalition policies, rather than sniping from the sidelines] Lib Dem members might support Nick Clegg more if he committed to coalition policies, rather than sniping from the sidelines But they do not see that. They see daily, self-indulgent and juvenile sniping at the Conservatives by the likes of Vince Cable and Chris Huhne, and they see a Deputy Prime Minister whose political gymnastics might just get him a berth in next summer’s Olympics. As we all know, 2012 is going to be one of the toughest years economically this country has experienced since World War II. If Clegg were a serious political figure, he would stop playing to the liberal gallery, sucking up to his European friends and forge a real alliance with Cameron and Osborne to help us all weather the storm.
