Poikka: Given that we live in a gullible accepting world where the masses think "truth" is represented by, such as, biblical 'fake news', why should I give any sort of damn about the veracity or otherwise of the Withdrawal Agreement?.

no chance at all. this is a socialist country...always has been since the war..cannot be changed...The students for brexit will be threatened or bought off.. Admirable sentiments but naive...this is a very low place in the hierarchy of contentment.

willoicc - I do. Visit 'SHA' or my thread and you will discover that it is often discussed in detail. This thread is Lloyds UK domestic, plus Stoned etc. Well, he might be a domestic as well.

Alphorn, why do you not mention that the world economy is slowing down considerably?

"Employment numbers declined at the fastest pace since November 2011 as businesses delayed hiring staff amid soft demand and concerns over the UK’s economic outlook".

Stoned - you can write your endless drivel but these numbers just out impact real people. Employment is key, no matter where you live. That does not mean either the quasi employment of zero hour contracts etc.

WBecki - great posts.

BBalanjones - still haven't come up with an answer yet, I see.

O/T but may be of interest to posters:

Taken from BBC website: My headline would have been "Now fancy that...."

Efforts to recover millions in crypto-cash from the digital wallets of a man who died without revealing passwords to access them have hit a snag.

The wallets have been found to be empty.

The discovery was made by a firm appointed to oversee QuadrigaCX after the death of founder Gerald Cotten.

It expected to find the wallets full of C$180m ($137m; £105m) in crypto-cash deposited by the coin exchange's customers.

....... the company said, it found evidence that Mr Cotten had 14 other user accounts "created outside the normal process" that may have been used to trade on the QuadrigaCX exchange.

E&Y is now trying to gather information about the trading done via these other accounts to see if it can trace how much crypto-cash passed through them.

A reward of $100,000 has been offered by one former QuadrigaCX customer for information about where the exchange's cash has gone.

"The unregulated nature of cryptocurrency exchanges, plus the fact that so many use them to hold their coins rather than just exchange them, invites fraud," said security expert Dr Alan Woodward from the University of Surrey,

"We really need exchanges to be regulated," he said. "The big question is who would do that."

He added: "If anyone is using an exchange to hold their coins I would encourage then to do the most in-depth due diligence they possibly can."

I think Wbecki that 300,000 is a conservative (with a small c) estimate. More like double that amount of additional population every year. i.e.the size of a new large town or small city each and every year.Don't worry though because Theresa May says she will bring this down to about 10% of the total....Do you believe her?

Brexit thing is quite interesting. Watching some program and news about sheep farmers and how they would have to slaughter this seasons lambs if we cant sell them to the EU. Apparently we have about 110% production of out own needs. So my head kinda filtered the drivel to the fact that 10% would have no home. Simplistic I know. But then again I know we import Newzealand lamb, I guess that's a seasonal thing except for lamb does freeze quite well!.
So this got me thinking. How self reliant could old Blighty be. How sustainable could we be from a food perspective if we put out minds to it. How would this benefit diet, air miles, pollution etc.
Energy has a similar argument, the UK has vast calorific reserves. Sure, coal is not the fuel of choice but the tech is there to do it cleanly, at a cost yes. But it would provide many real jobs and prob cost no more than the current green energy tax. ( I am still sceptical of the cost of ownership of wind farms, particularly offshore -- nasty environment that) The energy thing is always about getting the cheapest energy, its wrapped up conveniently to the public in one form or another. I think from all sorts of sustainability, energy, water usage food issues etc the boffins need to come up with a cohesive plan, the public are getting tired of the politicians flim-flamming, there are going to have significant changes. Our National fish reserves are mainly exported because as a nation we don't eat the stuff, if there is no plan or will to change this it won't change. These are not political issues, and they are far more important than what I see Governments or Politicians fighting over. We need a reset on how we think. The one good thing about moving away from the EU is that it might give us a chance to do that as we would no longer be part part of a bigger self serving institution. Assuming we can break the UK's own rinse and repeat cycle.

Unemployment is at it's lowest since 1975, however poverty is at it's highest level since Victorian times so something doesn't add up..........."

Pretty obvious.

Lowest unemployment since 1975 due to massive job creation

As to poverty.

Absolute poverty or relative poverty?

Absolute poverty globally is at its lowest due to capitalism.

Relative poverty due to some being less skilled, in lower paying jobs, or not sucking on the teet of public sector service in Govt, Local Govt, BBC, or Meedja whilst cost of living keeps ratcheting inexorably upwards...

And all the while 300,000 extra people coming to these shores each and every year such that the population has ballooned...

All makes absolute sense.

He should have showcased Ken Clark, Alister Campbell or that excuse for a Prime Minister John Major to name but a few.
