Bob forget independence, will not happens.Nevertheless, we have a lot to do to change Britain and we have to do it together. UK is going to be one of the greatest places to live in the future but we are not there yet.

You forget the SNP run a balanced budget . It all balances , the only bit not in balance is the part run by Westminister who charge Scotland for UK infrasture such as HS2, Olympic games , sewers , Nuclear weapons , Uk civil service etc etc.
Indeed it is told that North Sea Oil in the Scottish sector paid for the M25 , we are sick of Englands free loaders.

"My idea of a utopian AI world would eliminate market manipulation"

Utopian and AI...

Oh dear.

AI takes over, we're all in deep trouble. Especially after we've started taxing robots to pay for this "Universal Basic Income" to ensure all the unemployed masses can consume!

I'll be honest Mr.Elbee, I haven't thought it thro'...still working on the details, but be assured I will update you once the technicalities have been ironed out ;)

[mr.elbee] 09/1/2020 12:45

that is one view.

Others have a different view.

Alp...Iran has now got nothing to loose with the most severe of sanctions imposed by Trump yesterday, is speeding up uranium enrichment without mandatory US monitoring.
Israel will simply not allow the Iranians to have a viable nuke, so 2020 will be the most dangerous decade yet and has already kicked off with the orange jughead creating a catastrophic international diversion far from home to distract from his impeachment trial.

God help us.

if the women and the computers take over.

Posters influence nothing, opinions positive or negative are welcome if factual or measured. Trump can wipe billions off a share with a single tweet! My idea of a utopian AI world would eliminate market manipulation...and no more MM's!...all trades would be quantum blockchain tech.

Why do you think were in so much debt ctr? Weve got the equivalent of a city the size of Bristol full of immigrants claiming benefits. It's the Torys in particular the ERG who recognise this. Fkin Labour libs & SNP want to perpetuate the effing issue not address it!!!!

[alphorn] 09/1/2020 12:29

Multi millionaire commoners!

[alphorn] 09/1/2020 12:26

jordaggy - disagree with you entirely. You would also ban any poster who ever had anything but positive on any share in your portfolio? You don't take alternative views well?

[mr.elbee] 09/1/2020 12:25

and then we really would be finished

[alphorn] 09/1/2020 12:23

Ladeside - that is how I see it too. Probably why not a peep from either China or Russia. Sense may still prevail.

Alp dear chap - Carney should keep his big gob shut, yes things could be difficult without a great Boris deal, we all know that, we don't need Carney uttering a single comment about it...he needs to talk positive or keep his trap shut. I suspect his loyalties and his personnel wealth lie elsewhere. I had a dream a few years back where all decision making, be it government, financial, political or whatever was all AI decided - no human influencers with vested interests...just quantum level AI.

GNR, There's no doubt at all that it was all a setup job in order that both nations could save face.

It appears that Trump jumped in with both feet (as usual) and didn't appreciate the can of worms that would be opened by taking out Soleimani, as such, a compromise was reached where the Iranians were given a "free shot" as it were in order to appease their people and save face publicly. Of course this was all carefully choreographed to ensure that nobody was killed or seriously injured.

Trump is all smoke and mirrors as we saw time and time again during his very public spat with North Korea and 99% of his bluster is aimed at the gullible and ignorant within his own electorate, unfortunately there's very few who seem to see this.........
