What are the top 10 economics news stories of 2010?

My colleague has found The Daily Telegraph’s illustrated Top 10 Economics news stories of 2010, which could be a useful resource to reawaken students’ economics memory at the start of term. Perhaps it could be used to spark discussion about macroeconomic consequences, or by showing students the pictures and asking them to suggest what the news story was - or by asking them to suggest what they think the top 10 stories were, and then comparing to the selection given here. Certainly it would be useful for reminding them to use knowledge of the UK economy in any papers they are sitting this month.
