Why would any country need to increase interest rates when they can print your own money ?

We have no issue with the supply of vaccines ...if there was we wouldn't be at 45 % of adult population while eu is at 9

A slight reduction in supplies from huge numbers if nothing to be concerned about its no different to a fluctuating share price we all know it will go up and down

Was your expectations supplies would always go up every week. Target will be hit and I think it is common knowledge vaccine roll out is fantastic newspapers run articles to sell copies take it with a pinch of salt

Manics : Agreed on the defend 18X . The market seemed to spook a little on the build up to the fed yesterday but thats a fair old commitment to 2023.

The vaccine AZN news is a shame but we are so far ahead of Europe I am not surprised they are throwing their toys out of the pram. I think there could be a trade off with vaccines, based on the production site locations in the future but lets see hey. The UK numbers are falling and things look good for us.

...the Federal Reserve continued to project near-zero interest rates at least through 2023.

[manics] 18/3/2021 06:57

Lets get it today -defend the 18X and perhaps surpass yesterday's intra high.

Is it a coincidence that, after 13 countries have completely suspended AstraZeneca, and a handful more ban a particular batch, all of a sudden our roll out plan has been reduced. When all assurances were given that there would be no issues with supply. Symptoms of Covid aside, something smells..

President Joe Biden’s military last week declared its first war … on Fox News host Tucker Carlson.


Carlson had committed the great sin of pointing out the oddity of the fact that the Biden White House had been promoting brand-new uniforms for pregnant soldiers, rather than America’s military efficiency in the face of a rising Chinese military threat.

This prompted spasms of apoplexy from top brass in the military itself:

Pentagon spokesperson John Kirby said that the Pentagon was filled with “revulsion” at Carlson’s comments, adding, “We absolutely won’t just take personnel advice from a talk show.”

Army Sgt. Maj. Michael Grinston tweeted that women “will dominate ANY future battlefield we’re called to fight on,” calling Carlson’s words “divisive.”

Marine Master Gunnery Sgt. Scott H. Stalker, the senior enlisted leader of the U.S. Space Command, said that Carlson’s opinion was “based off of actually zero days of service in the armed forces.”

Now, the military itself recognizes that pregnant women can’t exactly staff front-line positions. At 20 weeks of pregnancy, pregnant soldiers in the Army are exempt from field duty, deployment, wearing individual body armor, standing at parade rest or attention for longer than 15 minutes, or participating in weapons training; upon diagnosis of pregnancy, all pregnant soldiers are exempt from regular physical fitness training.

And the military has reported in the past that mixed units underperform all-male combat units. In 2015, a yearlong Marine Corps report found that, according to National Public Radio, “all-male units were faster, more lethal, and able to evacuate casualties in less time.”

But the content of Carlson’s words was less important than the reaction to them, for it was unprecedented for top members of the military to unite in excoriating a civilian opinion journalist.

Had it happened on former President Donald Trump’s watch, the media undoubtedly would have used it as an example of politics infusing traditionally apolitical institutions. Dark buzzwords like “authoritarian” and “fascist” would have been tossed around casually. Yet when the military was mobilized to attack Carlson, the media cheered instead.

We are watching in real time as America’s institutions are gutted on behalf of left-wing politics. Formerly apolitical institutions are being remolded top down to reflect the values of our New Ruling Class: those who speak the wokeabulary, who believe in the tyrannical and polarizing theories of Ibram X. Kendi and Kimberle Crenshaw, who see their roles as the social engineers of their fellow Americans.

This is true in our universities; it’s true in our colleges; it’s true at our corporations; and now it’s true in the American military. No wonder we’re told that our military will somehow be stronger for tossing out gender-neutral physical fitness tests, or paying for transgender surgeries, or forcing soldiers to read the asinine musings of critical race theorists.

Our military is designed to deter and to defend, to kill people and break things. If diversity facilitates that mission, that’s wonderful. But to supplant the military’s chief mission with the woke protocols of the political left is to undermine that chief mission. The world is a dangerous, ugly, competitive place.

If our masturbatory woke solipsism blinds us to that reality, the cost will be quite real—far more real than any supposed threat emanating from the musings of Tucker Carlson.

Johnson is an appeaser, more a Chamberlain than a Churchill.

So the acquisition of real and tangible stakes in the UK education system, businesses, commerce, 'fabric of society' and 'facets of everyday life' by Communist China causes those that currently govern the country no concern in the bigger picture - hence a soft approach?

U.K. bank stocks and the wider financials sector added buoyancy to London stocks on Tuesday, as Credit Suisse said it sees opportunity for British banks once pandemic-induced lockdowns end.
Shares in Barclays (BARC.L) Lloyds (LLOY.L) and HSBC (HSBA.L) all highlighted by the Swiss bank, traded around 1.5% to 2.5% higher on Tuesday.
But NatWest (NWG.L) stock — which received an upgrade from Credit Suisse (CS) — fell around 2.5%. The U.K.’s financial regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority, started criminal proceedings, alleging that the bank broke money laundering rules.
The U.K.’s domestic banks, including Barclays, Lloyds, and Natwest, face “a cyclical and even structural turning point post lockdowns,” analysts at Credit Suisse wrote in a report on Tuesday, as analyst Omar Keenan assumed coverage of the sector.
