"Weak sterling, strong dollar, strong commodity prices amongst other things"

Real underlying growth drivers eh?

LOL

[shy tott] 18/6/2019 18:05

Vacuous as usual.

Why do you never have anything interesting or pertinent to say? Seems to be a common trait between all little Europeaners.

the UK will soon be trading with the world, with a biproduct of helping the poorest countries to export. The uber protectionist eu will be trading with other eu countries, and others who can afford their prohibitive import tariffs designed to keep the world out.

Perhaps you should refer to Englanders as big Englanders, but that is a bit oafish towards the scots welsh and N irish though.

Seriously folks, what's wrong with Europe?

Again they're looking at lowering interest rates AND more QE. Apparently, the pot's not quite empty - yet.

And that's after decades of shifting money from the wealthier nations to the poorer nations - an interesting experiment, and one that you don't have a great deal of say over. This is a bit like Mao's agricultural revolution - shifting folk into the countryside, only the choice is different: Mao gave you no choice; Brussels gives you Hobson's choice (no work, move to another country).

What's driving your capital growth?

[cheshire pete] 18/6/2019 17:16

Capital growth the driver, divis icing on the cake.

LOL What a numpty.

Dollar earning footsie shares up on Trump meeting the Chinese guy at G20 next week. Miners, pharma, oilies looking strong....happy days. All we need now is Boris and no deal, or GE resulting in further weakness in sterling and sit back and watch it roll up in the ISA. Banks a hedge against a reversal imv.

Back to Bonny Scotland. I'm absolutely fine with Scottish Independence, it could turn out like a company's subsidiary being offloaded. They'd have to succeed on their own, and that could mean really getting their act together, which should benefit both of our economies.

Probably lead to better relations, too.

[cheshire pete] 18/6/2019 16:09

Boris is charismatic, Scotland included.

Anyone read Jeremy Vine's article yesterday 'Bojo's party trick' in DM or DE yesterday....absolutely hilarious, turned up late for a dinner and asked who the speaker was and turned out he was and due on stage anytime so had to wing it...still brought the house down.

Why does Spain have colonies in Africa then complain about Gibraltar?

[crossing_the_rubicon] 18/6/2019 15:57

More evidence the key members of the EU are NOT our allies,nor friends.

"Spain complains about British military while refuelling Russian warships"

If we stayed in the EUSSR we the BRITISH would have our Democracy further raped and our money would be pillaged by the Evil EUSSR.

LEAVE and WTO

The late Labour leader & Chancellor Hugh Gaitskell warned that British entry into the European project meant "the end of a thousand years of history" - what a contrast to clueless @tom_watson, who thinks obsessive Europhilia is in Labour's DNA!

If we stayed in the EUSSR we the BRITISH would be roped into that terrible mess and their currency.

Funny how despite continually diluting the value of the Euro it never really loses any true value, all because it is completely undervalued in Germany but in the rest of the EU it is extortionately over valued. So why the Germans enjoy the lap of luxury their neighbours are crippled in despair without the ability to devalue and make themselves competitive. Still all the time we are shackled to them we are ready to pour more money in too keep the Euro stablised.'

Jacko - I hope that your views on ITV are less clouded than your emotions on the € etc. According to you I should be on the other side of my trades. I don't think so.

An eye opener.

WHILST LONDON AND SOUTH EAST HAVE BEEN SPOILED BEING THE MAIN GATEWAYS TO THE UK
