Gerri Peev: OECD warns of bogus memo

Just had this email from the OECD's press office:

OECD has been informed of a text dated 21 November 2008 purporting to be a “confidential memo” from OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Gordon Brown, commenting on the outlook for the U.K. economy. This text is a hoax and does not reflect the views of OECD or of Mr Gurría.

One wonders what it could say? UK heading for massive job losses and catastrophic recession? We are already nearly there although not nearly at the bottom...it would take a lot to shock us now. Perhaps it asserts that it is partly the PM's fault (which no one believes surely)...
