What's needed is a leader with vision and ability to create a future which isn't just carefully managed decline. They'll then have to overturn 10 years of a collective mindset where the best anyone can look forward to in the future is just managing decline until the cash runs out.

Maybe, maybe... And doing better than regional journalists cash-wise doesn't set the bar very high - I bet a good chunk of the GB working population could claim that one (average GB annual salary Mar 2012 £24.16k+).
