Cheshire, they just can't help themselves!

If Hunt was trying to throw the fight he couldn't be doing a better job.

It's also excellent that IDS is Boris's second in command. He'll provide the solid detail work. One can see him as Deputy Prime Minister.

OMG they really do suffer from inferiority complex don't they.

Hobbits, rather than Little Englanders?

The world isn't that dangerous you know. Go out of your county for a month or to, live a little!

ROFLMAO!

Jeremy Hunt has made the first major gaffe of his campaign by implying that people who voted Leave are “little Englanders”.
In a Twitter response to a question about Brexit, Mr Hunt said he would “deliver a Brexit that works for the 48% not just the 52% - a positive, open and internationalist Brexit, Great Britain not Little England".
Kate Hoey says: “How dare Jeremy Hunt make such a snide comment about the millions of Leavers. Not a very sensible way of uniting the country.”
It comes after Dominic Raab, who supports Boris Johnson in the leadership campaign, called Rory Stewart's bluff over the plot to block no-deal Brexit as the Hallowe'en exit date row intensifies between Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson.
The former Brexit secretary said there would be "vanishing few" ministers who "would be willing to countenance such a damaging step" after Rory Stewart, the Secretary of State for International Development, said he "would definitely vote against a Conservative government to stop a no-deal Brexit".

Whilst I was a paying member I was not removed.

I was removed afterwards for comments I made. Silly, really. I made far worse when I paid. LOL

maxk obviously doesn't understand what a monopoly is.

The NHS is not a monopoly, you are free to access health care wherever you want.

Lots of talk about the NHS on here, remember The EU's TTIP? where US businesses would be guaranteed 'market access' to sell services in Europe, and given 'national treatment'—putting them on a par with European companies. The same goes the other way round.

What’s this got to do with the NHS?

Market access means that monopolies must be abolished. These include public services that are provided by the state or by a limited number of suppliers—like the NHS.

Can someone tell me why the EU is good for the NHS?

I ended my subscription. No one removed me whilst I was a subscriber.

[minerve 2] 26/6/2019 11:37

Ban for what exactly?

A view that you don't like?

LOL

Crossing, Mrs May is pursuing a scorched earth policy. She wishes to do as much harm as she possibly can while she still has the chance.

[minerve 2] 26/6/2019 11:32

Your wallet may seem like you are successful exlogicalod but from where I am sitting I see only a loser.

[crossing_the_rubicon] 26/6/2019 11:25

Yesterday the Govt pushed through a tax hike from 5% to 20% VAT on solar panels to comply with EU law.

I did not support them. What is it about Mrs May’s Govt that they are so wedded to the EU? We're leaving. We don't need to set our taxes in the ways they demand anymore.


"Utter idiocy of May's government continues..."

[minerve 2] 26/6/2019 11:19

Youth agrees with me. They see you for what you are.

[minerve 2] 26/6/2019 11:18

Say what you like exlogicalad, you're a funny little irrelevant man. ;)

Your generation will not be missed. The most selfish, self-centred and privileged generation in UK history.

Wow..
More good news for your favorite bank's share price .

A drop in the ocean?

UK financial services companies have racked up a Brexit bill of close to £4bn as they prepare to shift people and capital to the EU, according to EY, the consultancy.

Some of Britain’s biggest financial services groups have disclosed £1.3bn in relocation costs, legal advice and contingency provisions since Britain voted to leave the EU three years ago, plus an extra £2.6bn in capital injections as they set up non-UK headquarters.

Banks have put aside extra cash to cope with a possible rise in defaults after Brexit amid concerns about the UK’s economic outlook in the wake of a disorderly exit.

Banks also face extra costs to shift offices, people and technology.

“So far, only a small proportion of the largest, listed firms have put a number on potential costs, which means this number is likely to be a drop in the ocean.”

At present, many financial institutions have put their plans to relocate jobs and assets to mainland Europe on pause, due to the uncertainty about Brexit, which has twice been delayed since the originally scheduled date of March 29.

jacko - two very unpleasant posts do not make a good one.

I suggest that ALL the vitriolic posters rein in their emotions and focus for a few weeks what is happening in a very volatile market.

There are rarely opportunities such as the past few months and likely in the immediate future to do so well. If the word 'profit' gives a problem any gains can be donated to charity.
