None were in Italy - which it hopes might help the country fend off spiraling debt costs, along with the 70-billion-Euro cuts which parliament passed on Friday. But, as RT's Sara Firth reports, there's only so much that can be done before the people take power into their own hands.

British people told by opposition politician to start arming themselves for a class war

If you don’t work in the City or in economics, you may not have heard of the annual Mais lecture, which was delivered last night by George Osborne.

And then there's the people who think both descriptions are true.
