Minnie..your JMAT are pedestrian, have done nothing lately!

Xxxxxy Farage was lambasted by the fkin lefties for daring to suggest that foreigners with aids shouldn't be treated by the NHS. Then you've got the doctor fronting the BMA suggesting the NHS should be free to all irrespective of nationality. Without controls the NHS will self destruct its already a bottomless money pit. People need to understand that the N in the acronym stands for NATIONAL. Great idea to deduct treatment costs from the foreign aid budget.

Yes, we need to discuss your investments Jacko. A bit pedestrian, no?

Give me 20 minutes, I'm just popping down to the pound shop in my 2015 Range Rover.

I had PFG and Capita and sold out of both at a loss. Having said that you don't know what my buy in price was and so you have no idea what the losses were. I am happy to say they didn't have any material affect on my finances whatsoever. I have lost more on individual stocks. £400K on one back in the noughties. So PFG and CPI losses were chump change. LOL

They remained on my watchlist. Yes I am recouping my losses thank you.

Carillion I have never owned.

WPCT sold out at c114p.

According to Nigel Farage, the Leave Means Leave group confirmed they had obtained a licence from the Greater London Assembly to hold a "celebration" in Parliament Square on January 31. However, whether or not Big Ben will ring has yet to be confirmed.  Daily express

Minnie, if my memory serves me right, you had Provident at over a tenner and Capita at over six quid, but I am glad to see you are at least recouping some of your losses.

Of course Carillion will never get anything back for you, you never said which of Woodford's funds you were in.

gnr

I used to code/design video compression algorithms (MPEGx). There isn't any algorithm on this planet that can successfully separate motion vectors of a drunk from someone rushing into hospital with a sliced jugular. Besides, when someone gets flagged up as a potential threat you need 2 or 3 men/women to go and sort it all out. Er, expensive. Not a very clever idea at all.

Perhaps a better idea would be to limit licensing, licensing hours and retailing of cheap liquor. Additionally we could change society so that those that have been left behind by the Tories don't feel they need to be in a permanent state of escapism.

Now that would be a refreshing idea.

Way beyond your grey cells I'm afraid. :)

Japan does not pay to trade

Ian WraggPosted January 15, 2020 at 6:17 am | PermalinkWhy should we be paying anything to the EU after we have left. They should be paying us to trade and if they want access to UK fishing waters.Reply?Ian @BarkhamPosted January 15, 2020 at 11:56 am | PermalinkThe EU has also been quoted as suggesting that in order for the UK to have a trade deal they must sign up and have scrutinized standards and practices that are higher than in the majority of the EU.They have got that backwards, unless the EU puts in play with their own citizens the same identical rights afforded to the citizens of the UK, free health at source, long maternity leave, holiday entitlement and so on and so on. And unless those rights are administered by the UK Courts, their trade with the UK should be restricted.The EU negotiators only have punishment and payment in mind. Unlike the actual real people of the EU cooperation is not on the agenda.

L JonesPosted January 15, 2020 at 8:39 am | PermalinkPart of the huge Foreign Aid budget should be used to recompense the NHS for any unrecoverable costs from treating visitors to our country.That treatment is "foreign aid", isn't it?

[gotnorolex] 15/1/2020 14:54

stonedyou Yep he doesn't get around much anymore like broadwood author of this thread who refuses to return or moderate LLOY while Min is on the loose!

[gaffer73] 15/1/2020 14:51

True, interest rates are that low now a cut would make hardly any difference to the average family. It's all about cheap mortgages and high house prices. But what happens when they have to increase interest rates, boom, the next crash and subsequent recession. I swear its all planned so certain people can take advantage.

4 day working weeks for everyone perchance ..... now where have I heard that before? 😃

RE printing more money - that seems to push up asset prices, those with assets get richer whilst those without draw in their spending.

all imho

[gbh2] 15/1/2020 14:41

Get companies to pay decent wages and offer full week working contracts!

[gaffer73] 15/1/2020 14:33

If they want inflation just print some more money.

[hawaly] 15/1/2020 14:31

They're trying to generate some inflation

No inflation leads to less demand which leads to lower inflation which produces negative multiplier effects - a vicious circle.

All of this will be fine until there is some suprise shock, then all the rented car drivers leveraged up to the hilt with no beer tokens in the bank will take it on the chin.

[gbh2] 15/1/2020 14:28

We spent hell of a long time at 0.5% during which time LLOYD's share price was a damned sight higher than it is now, the share price is being driven down by those that don't give a toss about PI investments, as long as those driving it down can make a few quid on running it back up.

Same with the £ it's a cash generating game and sod those that suffer.

[gaffer73] 15/1/2020 14:24

Only reason they want to cut the interest rate is to support the inflated house prices, pound is around the three year average.

[gotnorolex] 15/1/2020 14:18

When montyhedge the Sloan Square jockey appears, be sure were heading for worse!

[philanderer] 15/1/2020 14:12

Inflation tumbled to lowest level for three years in December


News of the decline prompted further falls in the value of the pound as it makes the prospect of an interest rate cut more likely.
