Question: Will the Government default on Northern Rock Corporate Bonds? What's your opinion?

Answer: I think that is extremely unlikely, the government has not had any problems selling bonds despite the financial crisis and the reason for that is that the institutions buying them are very confident they well get their money back.

Government borrowings are very high, but not at such a level that would be considered unsustainable - this is one reason why the states credit rating has not been downgraded.
