gnr - Lol. Switzerland has around 325,000 workers who cross the borders to work each day. That is why they have changed tack last weekend as to what to do with CV - ie focus on the ill.

She hasnt let Min out yet...

Alp I didn't realise you have a thread.. pls post link if you don't mind.

[alphorn] 11/3/2020 11:57

k38 - too much emotion IMO. Have written something that Gove said this morning on my thread.

[k38] 11/3/2020 11:55

Now they are even deeper in the hole sh#t..Italy alone needs 200 billion fresh money just from the virus effects on their weak economy... nevermind the rest and on top of that problems like Turkey and illegal immigrants.

[k38] 11/3/2020 11:53

Alp I like to hear your opinion too. So far, they show to us the only way they are going to give us a deal is if we still behave like we never left, rules and laws.

[alphorn] 11/3/2020 11:48

A deal must be the likely outcome - but not for the reasons you write k38.

[k38] 11/3/2020 11:44

Brussels mafia is not that stupid to let us walk away especially now with the virus damage have done to their already weak economies... they will give Boris what he wants and both parties will claim victory.....but already they have given up their ambitions to hold us in their pockets. A deal is guaranty.

Hey Alp... to keep in the mood of the day, I told my friends in the outskirts of Zurich
" You talka nonsense, I breaka your legs!" LOL!

Chav

"They cant afford to let us walk away with out us paying the goodbye and good riddance money "

Exactly, the EU needs as much as it can get in the current climate and so it puts the UK in a stronger position. The PM has already said that if negotiations aren't progressing well then he will consider walking away as early as June.
So the possibility of a No Deal Brexit is still there.

g7I have seen a lot of negative comments in good times... this is the only time which you can't blame them. lol

[smartypants] 11/3/2020 11:30

More than 15 days

[gaffer73] 11/3/2020 11:28

There seems to be a lot of people posting negative comments who are not invested in Lloyd's, I wonder why they are bothering??

[k38] 11/3/2020 11:27

I agree.. 8 to 9 days is far to early to see change direction of the markets . The virus effects will be with us all summer but at thesame time I believe, a lot of chances to get on an off the bus.....at the moment it's going only one direction, down.

[alphorn] 11/3/2020 11:26

Lol PO. ;)

[chavitravi2] 11/3/2020 11:19

Sikthetech, if what you are saying is right, and I think it is, then it's going to concentrate the minds of the EU negotiators over a trade deal with us.
They cant afford to let us walk away with out us paying the goodbye and good riddance money or the disruption to European businesses which will be many times worse than we will suffer, if we suffer at all. WTO is the way to go for us has it was reported earlier it makes little difference to us which way. We would in my view just be a little richer keeping the ransom money.

[toon1966] 11/3/2020 11:18

You’re being very optimistic Pierre.

[pierre oreilly] 11/3/2020 11:17

Lol Alp, you have your moments too! Practice what you uptick!

[pierre oreilly] 11/3/2020 11:16

I doubt there'll be any unexpected news on the virus. In the uk it will get worse (i.e. more infected numbers rising) for 8 or 9 days, then get better (less infected each day). I expect in 9 days time, it will be relegated to drop the dead virus news status.

[ignoble] 11/3/2020 11:14

Interest rates in the UK stayed the same at 2% from 1932 to 1951
19 years without a change

WW2 in the middle of that , no panic rate cuts then

DYOR etc

[gotnorolex] 11/3/2020 11:14

Costain fallen off a cliff!

[ekuuleus] 11/3/2020 11:09

mostly in cash here as well.

[malcolmmm] 11/3/2020 11:08

I agree , stock markets are too high and need a healthy correction

[k38] 11/3/2020 11:07

I was expecting to see another small rally from the banks. The fact that they show blue means nothing but weakness. 38p next, unless we have very good news on virus.
