For many months, even through 2008 and 2009, he kept expecting a wage explosion in the UK that was never going to happen.

We welcome today's UKFI report, which confirms that the sale of Northern Rock to Virgin Money represented the best possible value for the taxpayer. It confirms that this deal was good for competition, good for financial stability and good news for the North-East.
The sale of Northern Rock plc at a huge loss represents scandalously poor value for taxpayers' money. Ministers are hiding behind European rules as the reason for rushing this sale at a time when the British economy is flatlining, bank shares are in decline and the eurozone crisis continues.
However, this cash is expected to be returned over a period of around 10 to 15 years from 2012 as Northern Rock Asset Management Plc is run-down and the remaining Government loan is repaid
