"Sociology helps law to better understand society for smoother regulation and formation of laws. Similarly, the law is important to regulate a society. Norms, customs, traditions all these come under the law; if the law did not exist then the society would not be less than a jungle.

FUKIN ADA!! Expect a riot!!

Scotland may have to scale back its plans to pilot Nicola Sturgeon's flagship UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME SCHEME, as corona takes its toll.

The pilot scheme which would have seen 17000 people recieve a basic entitlement of about £5000 pa whether they are working or not may have to be scaled back due to constrictions on the public purse.

Dump HSBC then. Never succumb to threats or blackmail. Took out my mobile phone contract with a Huawei handset before security concerns. Expires soon and will be switching.

Coronavirus lockdown: now it’s the economy, stupid

Fears of a return to 1980s levels of unemployment have put jobs at the top of the PM’s agenda. Dominic Cummings’s pet schemes may have to wait

The moment Boris Johnson decided to move faster to lift the coronavirus lockdown can be dated precisely to a meeting on Tuesday morning when the prime minister blurted out the word “Christ!” Johnson was listening to a presentation on the economy from Rishi Sunak, the chancellor, and Alok Sharma, the business secretary. Johnson’s outburst was prompted by Sharma outlining how 3½ million jobs would be lost in the hospitality industry if pubs, bars and restaurants were not open to reap the rewards of summer.

A new trade vision for the UKBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: JUNE 7, 2020I find some of the media and email arguments I read  and hear about our trade future bizarre. Remain politicians and spin doctors are still peddling the lie that we cannot live with any changes to our  current tariff  free trade arrangements with the EU, whilst we must not enter into a tariff free  Agreement with the USA.There has always been a central lie behind the Remain position on  trade, based on  the so called gravity model. This states that trade with near neighbours is both more likely and more important than trade with countries further away., The model's economic forecasts are  weighted so EU trade matters and rest of the world trade doesn't, for no particularly good reason.In recent years our single biggest national trading partner is the USA, not Germany or France. 3000 miles has beaten a few hundred miles of distance. Our trade with China on the other side of the world has grown far more quickly than our trade with the low countries, near by.  This is despite facing tariffs on our non EU trade and no tariffs on our EU trade. How much more could we   trade with  the TPP and the USA on a tariff free basis?The dislike of opening a Free Trade Agreement with the USA predates President Trump but has been intensified by Remain's distaste for the present incumbent of the White House. There has been an orchestrated attempt to disrupt good relations between our two countries, and to vilify US food. The people who do so have often flown across the Atlantic and enjoyed US meals in hotels and restaurants without a murmur then about what they are eating other than to sometimes praise it and their hosts.In a few posts I am going to explore some of these issues one more time. Today I wish to stress four obvious truths from the figures concerning our trading patterns in recent years.Our trade has grown more quickly with the rest of the world than with the EU in recent years, despite EU barriers and tariffs and despite distance. Non EU trade is now the majority of our trade.Our non EU trade shows you can have a substantial and profitable trade without a special FTA in place. FTAs are helpful but not essential to trade, expanding it a bit.If you enter a Free Trade Agreement with another country you do not have to obey their law codes, and you do not have to buy products they make which you do not want or like.Once we are fully out of the EU we will decide on our animal welfare and food growing standards.

cheshire - unfortunately I think that it has changed.

[minerve 2] 06/6/2020 22:21

All Tories betray the British people. She was no different.

You get the government you deserve.


UK soon to be the leper camp of Europe.

[cheshire pete] 06/6/2020 22:19

Agree Alphorn, still the case in normal walks of life. May betrayed the British people though.

[minerve 2] 06/6/2020 22:18

Black lives matter, COVID deaths don't.

And forget about the thousands of Africans who die everyday. Where are the protests for them?

Morons, all of them!

Hard to believe the infection rate is increasing after all the clapping we've been doing.



CLAP HARDER YOU PLEBS!

The government under Johnson decided it better to leave and later unpick the Withdrawal Agreement rather than try and renegotiate it and open another can of worms.

Very sensible I reckon!

[alphorn] 06/6/2020 22:11

Since 1801 the motto of the London Stock Exchange is "dictum meum pactum".

That will change too no doubt.

[alphorn] 06/6/2020 22:02

cheshire - that goes for anything said today? Don't trust anything that is said.
Wonderful.

[cheshire pete] 06/6/2020 22:00

Someone needs to get through to Barnier that anything that was discussed and / or agreed to in May's time is now null and void.

No deal.

[xxxxxy] 06/6/2020 21:44

Mr Candour5 Jun 2020 8:59PM@Anon AnonNone. No Deal is the closest thing we'll get to a genuine level playing field, in the real sense of the words. As opposed to the EU's warped twisted version.

[xxxxxy] 06/6/2020 21:42

David James6 Jun 2020 9:25PMNext Merkel will step in claiming 'a deal must be done'.She made fools of Cameron and May. She humiliated them, and the UK. Berlin laughed as another hated British PM was destroyed by German superiority. Really it was German lies and deception.Boris is not a fool. He knows No Deal and full control of UK waters will ensure the UK flourishes. Then he can get UK coastal economies thriving and boost the Red Wall.Then a Tory majority in 2024 will be secured. Just keep a straight bat. Refuse to fund any EU Covid fund. Refuse any EU offers, they will be tricks. Never trust the EU.Prepare fully to leave on No Deal WTO terms. The effect of Covid minimises any effect of Brexit on the UK.However the EU is much more vulnerable. 20% in manufacturing. 20% in tourism. Banking still broken by 2007-9. Millions more will be jobless from low cost Asia, Covid and Brexit.The UK has to leave as cleanly and quickly as possible..
