Alistair Darling on the Politics Show:
I think we will see a return to growth towards the end of the year. I am confident but cautious. I think we have some way to go yet.
What he really means:
I think I will keep my job as Chancellor. I am confident but cautious. Until I know for sure, I will keep saying the economy will return to growth by the end of the year. After I am confirmed in my job I may, depending on the political situation, give a more candid assessment. It all depends on whether Gordon survives and when the general election will be.
