Poikka

It was the Libyan Embassy fyi

"Murder of Yvonne Fletcher. The murder of Yvonne Fletcher, a Metropolitan Police officer, occurred on 17 April 1984, when she was fatally wounded by a shot fired from the Libyan embassy on St James's Square, London, by an unknown gunman"


Storming of Iranian embassy by SAS was a glorious sight to behold :)

HSBC weighs up another 10,000 global redundancies, with up to 1,000 UK jobs under threat

Corbyn has a mature mind. It is understandable the chimps can't see that. Have a few bananas and settle down.

Iran is a large country. The people just want to live in peace. If we left the world to Trump and his small band of aggressors and their equivalents in other countries we can easily assume that WW3 is not far off.

"When you support a regime that bangs up a British Iranian woman and separates her from her child and husband, or has a British policewoman shot outside the Iranian embassy in London, you're definitely on the wrong side of the fence."

Obviously you have absolutely no idea of British history or you would realise we have been sat on the wrong side of the fence for hundreds of years according to your view.

"Mr Corbyn described the strike as an "assassination" and called on the Government to stand up to the "belligerent actions" from the US ."

Wrong side of the fence, again, Corby.

Long live the BBC, as is!...........
The ubiquitous BBC has 8 network TV channels, 10 national radio services, plus numerous online services. The BBC is the most used public service in Britain, occasional blatant bias at the proms over BREXIT with the EU flag outnumbering the union jack is just a bit of student defiance, very middle class with a cult following. The licence fee accounts for only 1 percent of household spending in the lowest income houses and has declined in light of inflation The world knows and respects the Brits because of the BBC. There is only one British institution in the whole world that can make a serious announcement and be believed. If the VOA or CRI announced the declaration of a war, every global citizen would rush to the BBC for ultimate conformation!

Strange that the Donald would order a strike out of the blue on that Iranian Commander.

There must have been some provocation.

Oh Look.

"Supporters of an Iran-backed Shiite militia attempted to storm the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad earlier in the week. Mr. Mohandes was deputy leader of the Popular Mobilization Forces, an umbrella group that led the embassy attack"

All clear now.

Provocation reaps whirlwind.

Tough sheeet.

I have addresses in Mayfair, Edinburgh, New York, Tokyo.

£100 a month loooool

[sentimentrules] 04/1/2020 10:19

BargainBob Edinburgh is the top city in the UK. Nowhere can compare.

Going to be big money pumped into it from financial services over the next five years

In fact, as far as address prestige goes for such. . Edinburgh I's now the 'in' virtual office. Real will follow hard

[alphorn] 04/1/2020 10:11

I see the red ticker is up early today - a tip for 2020 - get help.

[bargainbob] 04/1/2020 10:07

SRread yesterday there is a wall of money being invested into Edinburgh at the moment.

[alphorn] 04/1/2020 10:06

Jacko - PC answered re Bovis.

Don't know the details but Bovis is now called Vistry (VTY). Yesterday they completed their acquisition of two Galliford businesses. Don't know why it dropped Galliford (did they get shares in Bovis/Vistry?)

[fatnacker] 04/1/2020 10:04

Obviously, why?

[alphorn] 04/1/2020 10:03

Posts on GS - not everybody is long only for these opportunities.

Encouraging entrepreneurshipBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: JANUARY 4, 2020The lifeblood of an enterprise economy comes from the ability of the many to set up and run a business for themselves if they wish. A vigorous private sector has  easy ways for new businesses to be born, and sensible ways for failing businesses to be wound down or stopped.The ability to set up a business rests on self belief, access to property, skills and capital, and a favourable balance of risk and reward for doing so. The UK has a relatively good rate of new business formation compared to the rest of the EU, but falls behind the USA in capacity to set up and grow businesses, especially  beyond a certain small scale.The first thing the government should do is to advise schools and Colleges that self employment is a serious career option. Indeed, the brightest and most energetic students are above all the people that should be asked if they will set up a business of their own rather than seeking the comfort of a cosy job with a large corporation or state actor. Enterprise should also be for the many, as many people who are not interested in academic subjects or who do not  excel at passing exams may be excellent at understanding customer needs and meeting client requirements.People training at Colleges to be plumbers, electricians, cooks, house maintenance people and other  skills should be offered supporting courses on how to offer their services through their own business.The government  needs to revisit IR35. It should be easy to gain self employed tax status for all those who are offering their work to clients and customers other than through someone else's company as a company employee.The government should raise the VAT threshold higher so people can increase their turnover more before needing to get help and advice on how to comply with VAT.The government should derate small business premises altogether so starter units are rates free.
