Dominic Raab has been urged to take the bosses of HSBC and Standard Chartered to task as concerns over the banks' support for a controversial law in Hong Kong deepens.  Lisa Nandy, the shadow foreign secretary, said Mr Raab must "take a tougher stance" and warn bank chiefs Noel Quinn and Bill Winters that there are "consequences" for companies that fail to uphold human rights responsibilities under OECD guidelines. "So far as I understand it, nobody in government has approached HSBC and Standard Chartered to remind them of their responsibilities," she said. "It would be extremely welcome to have a clear statement from HSBC and Standard Chartered disassociating themselves from that national security law.".. Daily Telegraph

New advisersBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: NOVEMBER 15, 2020As the Prime Minister looks for new advisers he needs a select cast who will help him develop and communicate his strategic vision of our country and our future as we leave the single market and customs union and learn to live with the virus.He needs help to build more bridges with Ministers and backbench MPs and to shape the resources and powers of government for a distinctive and positive approach to the future. There is plenty of talent and experience on the backbenches which needs enthusing and mobilising in many ways.There are three immediate priorities, which have to be tackled together and are critically interlinked. The first is the secure a clean exit from the EU, with or without the preferred free trade deal, with no more slippage. Indeed, there will not be a free trade deal of an acceptable kind unless the clear resolution of the UK to just leave is believed by the EU.The second is to put in place a full range of approaches to the virus as we await further breakthroughs from medical science, so we can live more normal lives and get the economy back to work whilst protecting the vulnerable and limiting the spread of the disease. I have often commented here on the initiatives we need to extend or develop to winnow down the impact of this virus.The third is to do everything we can to promote and sustain recovery. We need more and better paid jobs, more and more profitable small businesses, more home grown food and home produced goods.The Prime Minister needs to appoint those advisers who he thinks best meet his needs. He also needs to continue to take advice from leading members of the Cabinet who should also enjoy his trust .

John Redwood@johnredwood·1hThe EU moves from threat to threat because the U.K. has not given in to their bullying. Time for the U.K. establishment to back our side for a change and call the EU out for saying they will break their word and their Treaty.

There are two types of election fraud.A) election fraud (Bush v Gore)and..B) election frauuuuud (Biden v Trump)Joe Biden himself."We put together I think the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organisation in history of American politics"An ironic split of a tongue??? I don't think so. You don't make a such a mistake in your speech unless was in your mind and you knew about it !

should the theory of 1 5 mill MSMs be of concern then add on a further 3 mill petrified by the stupidity of the state diktat
This so called health body - looking after us - no just looking after them - not for our benefit

[jl5006] 14/11/2020 19:57

Well onlythe fools pay for Sky, So be it

Reports of up to 93% of 'positive' COVID tests being false positives. Much is being made of UK highest death total from COVID in Europe, the undertone being we're incapable of looking after ourselves and therefore shouldn't be leaving the EU lol.
Suspect we wouldn't be the worst if only true positives before arrival at hospital were counted but that wouldn't suit the agenda of our leftist media trying to talk the country down.

Poikka, when I wrote of younger people I wasn't thinking of people in their 40s! Still, it's a fair point you make.

[jl5006] 14/11/2020 19:14

cont - exec salaries destroy the nhs.
directorship sb vocational not excessively cash paid - thank you torag Broon!

[jl5006] 14/11/2020 19:11

Death is the acceptance of those that that perceive that those who should provide have not provided.
The other side of the coin - we can only do what we
Is this a health service - well - not exec salaries

[jl5006] 14/11/2020 18:59

careless.
Y watch a spectator sport with no spectators?
Y believe - data from an informed agency, when it is just gesstimation
U believe - but u think the EU is ok - last chance saloon - just go

[careful] 14/11/2020 18:44

Watching the US Masters as I type this drivel.
So strange and quiet with no crowds.

How long before get back to normal?

Covid statistics are hard to interpret.

When they quote deaths it is from 'any cause' for those tested positive within 28 days.
But were the deaths caused by Covid 19?

A very ill 98 year old with cancer and kidney failure died and was tested positive.
He was included in the Covid death totals.

[jl5006] 14/11/2020 18:26

Well careless
unless the wa is ignored - ie with no deal - tied to EU
C 19 is a total fallacy dreamt up for what I know not.
Phps to test the utter incompetence of the Govts of the world.
U say Europeans are seen as the enemy by older ppl.
That is reportable u know
Age
But why are u so simple minded?

[careful] 14/11/2020 18:11

Why are we banging on about the EU?
It is almost history as far as the UK is concerned.
How boring it has become.


The 3 big things we know about older people.

1. They are vulnerable to Covid 19.
2. Some think that Europeans are the enemy.
3. Sadly, most will be either very old or not with us in a few years time.


The younger people have different attitudes, things change.

[jl5006] 14/11/2020 18:09

careless
deluded - it was always them so why did we pay so much for so little. Part of the power structure - u having wet dreams?

[minerve 2] 14/11/2020 18:07

Anyway, of to watch The Desert Rats starring James Mason and Richard Burton.

I like Mason, one of my favourite actors.

Minerva Read... "Performance at the port remains under pressure due to the Covid pandemic, high levels of import traffic, the large number of empty containers and a large amount of unusually long-stay containers held at the port."All the rest are b.s.

[careful] 14/11/2020 18:03

So many do still do not know how Brussels worked.

We were full members and an important part of the power structure.

It was never 'them' it was 'us',

[jl5006] 14/11/2020 18:01

Are morph and min the same person?
