We can't BELIEVE Fern Britton said this!

Fern Britton's never worried much about saying exactly what she thinks, and last night was another brilliant example. The bubbly This Morning co-host was invited to appear on the panel of BBC political show Question Time last night, and she certainly didn't hold back when it came to answering questions about the state of the British economy. "It seems to the majority of people, that we who have families and mortgages and all of those things, we knew that spending was too much," she mused. "We knew that credit was being offered willy nilly, we knew that money was suddenly very cheap to borrow. I'm going to be very sexist here, but it appears that a lot of men have been in on this money business and they have made a very bad fist of it." Fern then continued as a loud cheer and a small number of boos followed her comment, explaining, "If there was the old-fashioned housekeeping where women are traditionally pretty good at making sure the money goes in the pot for electricity and the phone and the whatever – we didn't pillage and rob it and stick it all on a horse to see if the money would come in next week which it clearly hasn't – when we put all that money into the banks and we see nothing coming back." Crikey! She's really made her mind up on this particular issue, hasn't she? Are you loving Fern's man-blaming theories, or do you think it's all a load of old waffle?
