BATTLE OF THE BULGE: PART 223

Dear sirs,

Argentina 2 Polska 0. Anything else, worth reporting?

Oh, the voluble veep is ranting and raving, concerning the ‘Ways and Means’ corruption case, and the imminent verdict, to be pronounced on Tuesday, December 6 next. Not ’fare?’

The economic authorities are happy to forecast a monthly inflation rate for November ultimo, of less than six percent. Miracles never cease. Meanwhile, it would seem that financing the huge budget deficit the present misgovernment has accumulated so far in pesos nobody wants is becoming increasingly difficult, not to say onerous. Veremos! What a Messi !!!!
