Back to Westminster Blog homepageThe FT has obtained the full transcript of Alistair Darling’s conversation with Iceland’s finance minister. David Ibison wrote a piece about some of it today and we’re writing more about it tomorrow. But I wanted to share the most important exchange with you first. Enjoy.
Árni M Mathiesen: Hello
Alistair Darling: Hello
ÁMM: This is Arni Mathiesen, Minister of Finance.
AD: Hello, we met a few months ago, weeks ago.
ÁMM: No, we actually never met. You met the Minister of Trade.
AD: Alright, sorry.
ÁMM: No problem.
