I fired off the following comment at Tim W earlier today, which John B kindly turned into a post in its own right. For posterity I'll repeat it here:
Gummint invests £50 billion in new bank shares.
[As it happens] gummint spending is about £50 billion per month.
Solution: for the next one month, all public sector salaries, welfare and pensions payments etc will be paid in bank shares!
That’s that fixed.
Next.

Imagine the scene at Lidl:
"I'm sorry madam but we can't take share certificates, cash or card only."
"Oi, who's you calling a madam! I ain't done that for months. These here shared curtains is what the social give me, they's like money they is. I's got some for me, some for Mason my oldest, some for Shaznia so she can get that new tattoo so yous can't have hers, some for Kyle, Lyle, Taylor, Brittny, Leeroy and Ahmed. They's all good cos they's from the social and that chap down the cinnamon advice says they's worth money. So you's got a take 'em, innit."
"I'm sorry, we can't accept them. If you want to do your shopping with bank shares I suggest you go to Iceland."
Oh this would be so sweet if it happened. It would also be nice if public sector scum were paid in "special treasury bills", like monopoly money.
Mmmm, Icesave for me please.
