At some point the manufacturing side may have some bargains, since most people don't like manufacturing either. We may be waiting a long time for good resource companies to drop in price.

inbox about UK economic 'miracle' as a sham": Yes it has NEVER been discussed in newspapers but all over the UK people are going to work in GBP25k jobs and paying GBP9k tax taking home say GBP17k meanwhile their home is earning them maybe 10 to 100k per year. So buy a nice carpet and garden set for 2k and your house becomes more desirable by 10k, spend 20k doing the garden and put in a shed, call it an office and bingo theres another 50k. 5 years ago I joked with my father that my house in Kent/London was worth as much as his street and it was. Now those houses have gone from 30k to 250k in that time. These people in Liverpool live on government handouts and a bit of this and that- now they find they have a house earning a tax free 100k per annum. That is not economic growth.
