Christh , it's called a market driven economy , and if you are unable to make a profit ,and pay a proper wage then you should not be in business , that's capitalism for you, if you want subsidies then that is another world altogether . £2 for a pint is fine if that is the what the market dictates !

Osborne needs to go , what a mess has he created , our debt is bigger since he took over.


You think it would be less under Labour? Don't make me laugh. They caused the mess and the tories are sorting it out. Also isn't USA's debt getting bigger? Blame Osborne for that aswell.

In fact the whole world debt is getting bigger, it's macro-economics

corporate stocks, banks and housebuilders were under pressure on Brexit worries. Lloyds and Barclays were the biggest fallers in the banking sector while Taylor Wimpey, Persimmon and Barratt Developments led housebuilders lowWe

The above means house prices will go lower and banks won't be lending much money. Rates will go up and stringent tests more difficult than today will have to be passed. Also lack of jobs will mean we will be poorer in the short term I.e 10 years. But hey 2026 we will be better off. House prices back to normal and a immigration points system.

Morning Euro Markets Bulletin
------------------------------------------------------------
UK equities declined on Monday as concerns over a possible Brexit grew ahead of next week's European Union referendum.
The pound fell as low as $1.4159 in early trade, its weakest since 18 April, amid rising fears that Britain could vote to leave the EU in next Thursday's referendum.

"It appears that the Brexit fears that have, for most of the past few months, plagued the pound are beginning to really take hold of European trading as a whole, leading to the dire scenes the markets have seen since the middle of last week," said Connor Campbell, financial analyst at Spreadex.

Investors are also cautious ahead of the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision on Thursday. However, most economists expect the Fed to keep rates unchanged after a weak non-farm payrolls report and a dovish speech from chair Janet Yellen.

Retail sales rose 10% year-on-year in May, missing forecasts for a 10.1% increase and following a 10.1% gain the previous month.

Meanwhile, oil prices declined after Baker Hughes Inc. said the number of rigs drilling for oil in the US rose by three in the week ended June 10, the second straight weekly increase.

Brent crude fell 0.69% to $50.19 per barrel and West Texas Intermediate dipped 0.88% to $48.64 per barrel at 0856 BST.

Among corporate stocks, banks and housebuilders were under pressure on Brexit worries. Lloyds and Barclays were the biggest fallers in the banking sector while Taylor Wimpey, Persimmon and Barratt Developments led housebuilders lower.

Christh - don't waste your time on porty a mouthy egotist.
His only pleasure is in winding up others.

[informant100] 13/6/2016 10:23

I agree with the above post aswell. People on here have the assumption that a brexit will make the housing market crash and then they can buy a house. But how can you afford one when banks will tighten up more than the Lehman crash. Unless you guys on this board have £80,000 in your bank accounts. But reading some of the posts, the grammar mistakes and shocking spelling. I don't see anyone affording a house.


10 years lost that's what we are going to get.

portside1,

still my advise stands.

You will be poor,the Upper classes will be richer and dominate the country if we leave Europe.This what it is.

The people who want to leave want to bring back the Class system.

Upper class=those who have everything, dominate the country
Working class=those who exist to serve the masters of the Upper class


THIS WILL SPLIT THE COUNTRY, NOT EUROPE

EUROPE PROMOTE DEMOCRACY

The rights we gained from the laws in Europe will dissappear and any rights
that the people got from the European laws will be lost.


VOTE TO REMAIN


....and by the way Barclays is in Europe and will affect its business, very bad if we leave!!!!!!!!!!!

[portside1] 13/6/2016 09:37

i have lived in the country all my life know many farmers most are ok but the big farmers are lazy do nothing .
and yes most of the locals including the youths worked In the fields now they can not the big farms have gang leaders who only employ migrants has the gang leader is a migrant .
THE FARMERS ARE THE PROBLEM. NOT THE LOCALS.


NOW BACK TO BARCS JES MUST GIVE OUT SOME BETTER NEWS ON JULY 27TH

I think we should keep this board to barclays. This decision will split the nation and quite rightly. The poor thing is it is 15 years too late. We decided to free trade Europe but everything sincentre we should of also had the chance to vote on. That delay has brought factors that has made this vote extremely close to make a judgement call.

Barclays (LON:BARC): Time to Mind the GapIt has been in interesting year to date for UK banking stocks, with a relatively predictable spread between the domestic focused players, who have done rather better than those exposed to emerging or submerging markets. That said, one supposes that the likes of Barclays have faced headwinds from the so called challenger banks, which do not have the legacy losses which the rather unfortunate RBS (LON:RBS) is apparently still trying to get over. It is in fact still losing some £30m a day. As far as Barclays is concerned we had been treated to a decent rally which can be seen on the daily chart from as long ago as February, although there was that final bear trap rebound from below 147p from April. Perhaps the points to note since then are the way the stock has left behind a gap at 156.75p from April, and in the more recent past, the May bull trap reversal from above the April 182p peak and far below the 200 day moving average at 201p. The view now is that we risk a test of the gap floor at 156.75p over the next 2-4 weeks, even if we are then treated to further recovery. The risk is therefore that while there is no end of day close back above the 10 day moving average at 179p, the gap floor is the target. Only cautious traders should wait on a break of the extended January uptrend line in the RSI window at 42, versus 42.29 now, before taking the plunge on the downside.
