G20 summit: US Treasury department won’t answer their phones, says top UK civil servant
The British Government is finding it “unbelievably difficult” to prepare for the G20 summit because no one in the US Treasury department is answering their calls, Britain’s top civil servant Gus O’Donnell has said.

“There is nobody there,” he told a civil service conference in Gateshead. “You cannot believe how difficult it is.”
Has anyone tried calling the party line? Well, it is amateur hour, ya know.
PS: the Obama photo which came from IMAO was posted over at Michelle’s today. Rather serendipitous, eh?
