The Truth/Spartacus From the audited accounts of the States of Guernsey for the year ended 31st December 2010 - total scheme liabilities £1.216 billion. But hey, what's an extra mere £216 million - petty cash? So you are really clutching at straws. You are dismissing FRS17, which is a global accounting standard, on the basis that it doesn't suit your argument? You'd rather pretend that the extra £216m if liabilities didn't exist when FRS17 is globally recognised, except by Spartacus, to be a more accurate method of evaluating a pension scheme's liabilities? Do you really think that ignoring the effect of FRS17 is doing the people of Guernsey any favours at all, just sweeping the issue under the carpet? And you have the nerve to accuse me of scaremongering? What you are advocating is pure recklessness, destined to bankrupt Guernsey in a few years time. Scandalous. So in effect what you are saying is that global accounting standards, which every major company and government around the world adheres to these days, is flawed? Really? A desperate, futile attempt when there are no remaining straws to clutch.
