Boris Johnson's Covid speech showed little regard for either science or democracy




The most striking features of Boris Johnson’s address to the Commons were the

things he didn’t say. There was no strategic explanation for his decisions and no

evidence for why the measures he was (reluctantly, he said) introducing would be

more effective than any others. Nor did he make any attempt to deal with the

critique that is now widely available in the public discourse of his government’s

approach to this crisis....

Good afternoon chaps!

Hope you have saved shed loads of cash since my last post! ( By not buying in LLOYDS )

The skeletons are being exposed from their cupboards after decade of money laundering for the 'elites'.
There will be bargains to be had in Banks once the super bubble pops; LLOYDS will be dragged down per usual from the big boys, so i'm sticking to my target of 9p to 15p target.
In the unlikely event that i've missed the financial boat, no worries as i'm way up in my precious metals arena even after a sell off yesterday.( Nothing goes up in a straight line.)

Keep your cupboards, cellars, freezers full for the mean time ; you'll prosper! LOLOL!

Be lucky.

Cheers

Government using the Police and then the Army. Sounds like the Conservatve Government wants a POLICE STATE and some Gestapo. Boris needs to get a grip with Reality.

Joss Wynne Evans22 Sep 2020 3:46PMJanet, a great article..  I believe it would be right:1.   To require that the government facilitates a full debate without prevarication in Parliament as to their conduct over the Coronovirus Act and requires any further measure to be sanctioned by a full vote of the House.2.    To demand a full Public Inquiry with an unrestricted remit to report within six months on the events globally insofar as they affect the UK and the conduct of the matter at home.3.    To require a full debate on what has happened to the NHS, why the normal service has been suspended, with patients having life threatening conditions having consultations postposed sine die.4.    To require the police to investigate the decision to close the NHS that was taken to determine whether there is a criminal caser to answer.The prospect of civil war to get our democracy restored becomes less of a bad fantasy and more of a probability with every passing day.

Funny how these new posters turn up with terrible news or fantastic news!

Office workers who can work from home should do so.

Pubs, bars and restaurants in England will be ordered to close by 10pm each night.

The hospitality sector will be restricted to table service only.

Face coverings must be worn in taxis and private hire vehicles, and by retail staff while at work.

Customers in indoor hospitality will also have to wear face coverings - except while seated at a table to eat or drink.

The exemptions to the rule of six will be reduced, banning indoor team sport - such as indoor five-a-side football matches.

The planned return of spectators to sports venues will now not go ahead from October 1.

Wedding ceremonies and receptions will be capped at 15 people from Monday.

JANET DALEY22 September 2020 • 2:21pm?The most striking features of Boris Johnson's address to the Commons were the things he didn't say. There was no strategic explanation for his decisions and no evidence for why the measures he was (reluctantly, he said) introducing would be more effective than any others. Nor did he make any attempt to deal with the critique that is now widely available in the public discourse of his government's approach to this crisis.And in spite of the sacred promise that he and his ministers had appeared to make – that all significant policy announcements would be made first to Parliament rather than being briefed to the media in advance – we had already learned of the most dramatic change from the weekend press. (Yes indeed, pubs will close at 10pm.)The other major new edict was for office staff to work from home if they could – and Michael Gove had given that to the media earlier too. But what was missing was newsworthy: the failure to elaborate on, or explain further, the figures presented by his chief scientific advisors yesterday which have received so much criticism that they surely required some sort of apologia.Perhaps the prime minister really believes that the accusations of irresponsible hyperbole and unjustified assumptions which the presentation by Patrick Vallance and Chris Whitty has attracted from some very reputable sources, were beneath contempt. Or maybe he just chose to ignore them because the recollection was too painful. At any event, it seemed peculiarly tone deaf – as if he had become utterly out of touch with the heated debate in which the country was now engaged.But in the end, there could be something like relief – partly because we had already had most of the bad news about pubs and restaurants. True, the Rule of Six was being extended, the numbers allowed at weddings reduced, and face masks would be required in some new places. But we had been led to believe that it might be much worse: that any mixing of households could be prohibited or that a two-week total lockdown could be called immediately. Maybe the floating of those really terrible options was just an attempt at a clever political move, designed to make us grateful for the less severe restrictions which were, in fact, announced.If that is true, then it wasn't clever at all. The idea that the government could even be considering (which is to say, threatening) such actions is deeply disturbing. Are they oblivious to the fact that prohibiting any social contact between households is in a completely different league from ordering pubs to shut early? We have always accepted the principle of licensing laws: that government can decree the conditions under which alcohol may be sold in a public place. Drinking or eating in a public venue is not an inalienable right.But to visit or be in the company of others in the privacy of your own home is a different matter altogether. It is a usurping of personal freedom that is not even invoked in wartime. Local lockdowns which require such interference in private life are already being enforced by law – and it is, in truth, outrageous that this has not been more controversial.A line has been crossed here which British constitutional traditions should regard as sacred – only to be transgressed with the fullest possible debate and the most unimpeachable evidence. Unfortunately, this government has shown precious little regard for either of those things... Daily Telegraph

Retail banks will not have sold equity ISA's in which clients could buy single company shares. They will only have sold equity ISA's in which portfolio's of funds could be bought.

The likes of Hargreaves Lansdown and AJ Bell on the other hand have allowed people to trade on a platform (ISA or otherwise) but those will be 'own volition' rather than advised. I have something similar and am down a fortune over the last 20 years but only based on my own terrible choices of investments !

[cobourg1] 22/9/2020 14:34

Many people are nursing huge losses from having Share ISA's,

....................................................................................


Yes we are. I am so upset about it that I bought another 10k Lloy this morning! It would have been 100k if I'd had the money.

Losses/Profits short term, they happen, but long term WTF does the short term matter unless you are day trading? Lloyds is where it is not because of fundamentals but largely because of market manipulation and over the top press fuelled pessimism IMO. In a few months time I expect it to be 30p plus and climbing. This price is barmy.

If you think about it if people had the PPI today, they would have been able to claim in their difficult times, and banks would have had to pay out a lot more.

[alphorn] 22/9/2020 14:23

PPI cost is circa £50bn for UK banks. Note: not the final number.

[loganair] 22/9/2020 13:53

In the late 1990's I took out a car loan and said an emphatic No to to any PPI, how ever much the bank tried to push it on to me. Same with my credit cards when I first got them, I was offered PPI and said to the bank, it is a No as a complete waste of my money to pay for the PPI.

It still believe it is the final responsibility of the customer if they took out any PPI.


Many people are nursing huge losses from having Share ISA's, imagine having IAG or even Lloyds in ones share ISA, of course its the banks fault isn't it!!!
