Is your real name Donald Trump?

If that isn't chaos I don't know what is.

"Oh look, cheshire pete has just admitted he believes in chaos (328379) - no surprise there"

How did you jump to that conclusion exactly?




Because cheshire recommends supporting Trump, dressing up in some psuedo native-Indian outfit and pipe bombing the Capitol.

LOL!

I wasn't answering my own question at all. I was querying your drivel!!!



I'm well placed for the incoming debt collapse thanks. You, however, are clearly not if you think this ever increasing debt mountain is sustainable. It isn't, even with zero interest rates indefinitely.

As you will find out.

It's quite sad that not only can you not see the wood for the trees, you seem transfixed and rooted in denial of a system that is well past its sell by date.

ie Crony Capitalism. For the avoidance of doubt.

I am glad you can answer your own question. It is a misfortune (for you) you are unable to see the wood for the trees thereafter.

Crypto's falling M2, that should cheer you up, however as you know, sold mine for not being greedy and having a go at me for not holding on for more.

Oh look Aceuk has just admitted he believes in centralised control, the state is the be all and end all, a global government, a social credit system and socialism.

For what is what the "Great Reset" is.

Socialism.

The cavalry is coming - in the form of the Reform UK party.

There's no bull case for Lloyds until resumption of dividend announced.

Maybe 24th Feb - if not, then maybe one for dumping.

The more we look at it the more the EU fudge gets softerJanuary 11, 2021By Jonathan SaxtyAS I ARGUED LAST WEEK, despite the trade deal agreed between the EU and the UK winning many plaudits, thanks to both what is in and what is out of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (T&CA), the EU now has the means to make Britain pay a heavy price for leaving. For one, the T&CA largely omitted financial services, while the EU refused to recognise most of the UK's regulatory systems as "equivalent". Here is one of many areas where the EU can play rough with Britain if it chooses. Law firm Baker McKenzie has already warned the EU's assessment on equivalence with the UK may stretch into 2021. Last week meanwhile EU regulators withdrew registration of six UK-based credit rating agencies. The T&CA falls below the standard of recent EU free trade agreements, but with more onerous provisions on the level playing field. There is also the partnership council governing the agreement, on top of committees and working groups, all of which could tie Britain's hands. The T&CA did nothing to change the Northern Ireland Protocol, which ensures Northern Ireland remains subject to the EU customs union and single market rules, overseen by the ECJ. As such, it is simply wrong to claim the whole UK will not be subject to ECJ oversight. We already hear reports of hold-ups for lorries travelling between mainland GB and Northern Ireland. This is exactly where the EU can tighten the thumbscrews if it chooses. As our Chairman Ben Habib argued in the Express, not only is the Withdrawal Agreement "an awful agreement" but the T&CA "is mediocre at best". The agreements made thus far might be "stepping stones towards achieving our independence but they do not deliver it", Mr Habib argued. He added: "The Northern Irish Protocol, enshrined in the WA, threatens not only the separation of Northern Ireland from GB but also a domino effect across the union. It exists because the EU, together with Remainers in the UK and politicians in Ireland, weaponised the Irish border issue." Mr Habib mentioned false claims that "a customs border on the island of Ireland would breach the Belfast Agreement", while a smart border could have been created for customs checks, and "the border on the island already provides a division between two countries, two currencies, two different tax regimes and two phytosanitary jurisdictions". He stressed that "the EU itself published a report in November 2017 setting out how a smart border could be created."  Meanwhile, Mr Habib pointed out that although "the level playing field provisions in the T&CA are not based on EU laws, they do require the UK not to "regress" from them", something which would result in sanctions, meaning the UK "will not have unfettered control in setting" its own laws. Instead, Britain "will be left in regulatory alignment with the EU". Deviating from EU regulations will enable something to be done about the multi-billion trade deficit with the EU, for one. Late last year I warned in the Telegraph and Mr Habib warned in the Spectator of the risks in the T&CA. At the time Mr Habib wrote that either party can unilaterally terminate the T&CA subject to 12 months' notice, perhaps the one saving grace in the document. For months, I warned the fudge was coming. Now it seems it has been delivered. Mr Habib is right. As Brexhausted as we might be, and worn down by Covid as we are, those who believe democracy and sovereignty matter will soon find their aspirations have been largely dashed by the T&CA and Withdrawal Agreement.

Yes. The U.K. has vaccinated 2.4 million and counting, whereas the French have vaccinated a mayor who was skiing, a patisserie owner in Valon-sur-mer and a Peugeot-Citroen welding apprentice.
