He should use the words 'provisional exit'

It's only a concept . Not a fact...

Roll on market mayhem

[sentimentrules] 14/12/2019 12:36

Not sure how you truly think this all makes any difference.

The trade deal is where it all hinges. And oh boy.. then the real factions will commence

Mini boy! we lost out on launching Saudi Aramco, because of uncertainty! The daisy petal plucking has ended with "Britain loves business" So rev-up and let it happen! Boris bursts with energy and it's infectious!

Min., with respect, it is simply impossible to make the remain vote claim, as you have, about the vote on Thursday. Unless you have borrowed my crystal ball you have no way of knowing the breakdown of the labour vote. There is no official data to make any such claim.

Is it not now time to finally bury the hatchet and focus on future opportunities and challenges as opposed to fighting battles past? Even Alastair Campbell appeared to accept the situation which is quite remarkable when one considers his views.

Minerve, remain was and is a perfectly respectable position. I have nothing at all against remainers and no wish to punish them.

My complaint is against the most extremist of the remoaners, Grieve, Letwin, Yvette Cooper, Gauke and so on, the people who conspired to destroy representative democracy in this country.

Thanks mr.elbee, Evans-Pritchard did have some interesting things to say:

Goldman Sachs – no friend of Brexit – has identified $150bn of global capital flows ready to flood into the UK economy as Parliament ceases to obstruct. It expects a “back-loaded acceleration” in investment, lifting growth to a 2.4pc rate by late next year. It is betting on three-year expansion above 2pc and a catch-up surge in depressed UK assets.

(my bold face)

[pierre oreilly] 14/12/2019 11:44

Thanks for that Minny, I thought it was all a dream, but when things are too good to be true etc. I dreamt the Tories had an absolutely massive victory, and that silly girl standing on a 'ignore the brexit vote' stance got booted out, and that labour lost loads of seats which they have held for decades upon decades.

Thanks for putting me right, your party won afterall, and i'll give up hopes of brexit with so many against it.

I would imagine Mon will see a good start not least because the US have signed stage one of a trade agreement with China.Will be adding on any large dips depending on what the wider market is doing. Lloy didn't perform that great against a basket ofBanks. But overall the bias must up now that we've got rid of a Zombi parliament. Plus ,of course, Boris has said he will " work tirelessly"to make everything and everyone happy. What could possibly go wrong :)

[mr.elbee] 14/12/2019 11:06

Read Ambrose Evans Pritchard in the DT today. Europe is politically and economically finished. The EU is now on the back foot, and will now speed through a deal or we will run into the arms of Donald..One day is a very long time in politics.

As she said"rejoice"

why are we all wasting precious life giving thoughts and breath on the losers? let them wallow in their own stupidity and let us all pay attention by turning the MSM OFF ,most of the time, and making some money on the markets.

[grahamite2] 14/12/2019 11:05

What does it achieve when you jail a burglar? Does it unburgle you, stop you feeling violated, restore the possessions that were precious to you but had no insurance value? None of these, but still we jail them, as punishment for the evil they did.

The conduct of a number of remoaners was so completely dastardly it should not be allowed to go unpunished.

Caroline Flint lost her seat by the way, one of the few sad notes of the night. A decent, honourable (and very fine looking) woman and a loss to honest politics.

[lippy4] 14/12/2019 11:02

i thought with global warming that all snow had disappeared..

just goes to show its not true...

[gotnorolex] 14/12/2019 10:40

G2 what will that achieve?
Asking for gracious acceptance in defeat should be enough? We must be magnanimous in victory and bask in it for awhile! Not take the Blair view "We must not be triumphalist" I can live with Caroline Flint, Harriet Harman, Emily Thornberry or Yvette Cooper as new leader of the opposition which is very likely to be a woman, rather than Snow Queens like....Angela Rayner, Jess Philips, Rebecca Long-Bailey,Lisa Nandy or Angela Eagle. (Haven't checked if they've kept their seats)

[alphorn] 14/12/2019 10:29

I see that the unpleasantness is alive and well. :(

Enjoy your weekend - if you can. Off to the snow.

I thought ineos was taking over some of the older oil fields as it is hardly worth bringing out the oil from some of them. JR can do it because he owns the refinery in grangemouth, which also processes American shale which is imported. Once he has built the one in Spain, or is it Portugal, that whole operation is at threat unless NS starts allowing fracking in Scotland. Scotland has ample reserves of that also btw.

[utrickytrees] 14/12/2019 10:00

The Oils the UK's it will get carved up just like Scotlands proportion of the National Debt. If the Scots are nice BP might even let you hire all the rigs which definitely arent yours.

[grahamite2] 14/12/2019 09:46

No, gotnorolex, I want to see old scores settled! The Attorney General should be instructed to see what scope there is for issuing proceedings against the very worst villains, Grieve, Letwin, Gauke etc.

Then there's Yvette Cooper who unfortunately got back in, the only fly in the ointment in an otherwise wonderful evening. What can be done about her? Perhaps every MP should be instructed to point at her and laugh every time they see her.

BBC Online bias continues.

Watched Boris's rapturous reception at 10 Downing Street on the telly last night.

Then when I checked out BBC online this morning, BBC Online had found a pic of him as he returned to DS which created a totally different impression.

Left wing, lovey dovey, gender challenged kids have gained a stronghold there.

[bargainbob] 14/12/2019 09:20

Jacko it will take 2 secs . All Oil in Scottish water territory is Scottish , you really are thick c£&t at times.
