Raquel should know that the government no longer rule the UK - liberal, left wing judges do in politicised courts. Whatever people think of them Vance and Musk are correct about the UK - as indeed most people would agree. |
John Redwood@johnredwoodIf the PM insists on meeting the US President he should concentrate on offering and securing a tariff free trade deal. Lecturing the President on the Ukraine war instead means not making UK growth and prosperity his main aim. |
tricky, your prized refurbished glowing valve radio is about to bring you white noise to drive you mad! to replace those soothing, relaxing night tracks to lull you to sleep! Even the crouts wouldn't dare axe their "Musik zum Träumen" midnight broadcasts on AM radio. My reception from Droitwich is haphazard, either weak, distorted at times, so I asked a ham radio operator who said the once most powerful linear transmitting amplifier valve is on the blink and cannot be replaced because the skills for remaking has long gone with the company that made them! A modern AM transmitter is considered too expensive to employ to placate a dwindling number of decerning listeners. I'm glad I'm not young anymore! |
read the Guardian or The Mirror. and pay your "Trade" Union fees! |
It's one thing being part of a wider, say European, defence force, and quite another taking the lead. We need to remember our station in life, and it's not top of the pile any more. |
😂👍 |
Starmer overuling Chancellor regarding Defence Budget, so Rachel from Accounts and her Treasury cronies need to find some money. So resurecting old news, where those accountable have been prosecuted, but where the Treasury want some money to fund the Treasury black hole created by Starmer's ego.
If the treasury need money, instead of paying train drivers ludicrous money to pull a lever (every thing else is automated), take back the money and give them a 50% pay cut! After all, you don't really need much about you to pull a lever. Oh except being able to read the Guardian or The Mirror. |
is it any wonder UK plc is becoming uninvestible? |
Lloyds told it must publish the full report on the £1billion HBOS fraud
Treasury intervenes demanding full disclosure.
Treasury trying to find some money from the bank? |
The City wide boys up to their shenanigans.....nudge nudge, wink wink!! |
There you go! |
Could envisage Rory Stewart presenting a regular slot on Radio 4, only a matter of time. |
Must be bad news on Car Finance.....Close Brothers dropped 13%. |
wtf 😳 |
What idiot would want to kill off Radio4 ? British middle class culture is already threadbare! Without the BBC we'd be back to a pre Pygmalion society! |
Vance got applause when making the speech in Munich - from ONE person ! LOL !Always one idiot or bigot in an audience. Would have been TWO if Scruff1 had been there as he will be a fan of Vance ! |
Rolling Stones?
It seems incredible now, but when I worked for Midland bank (HSBC) in the 1970s, they had a huge branch network, with thousands of employees and made a profit.
They had defined career paths for those so inclined and qualified.
I'm not sure of the polite noun for the staff left in the ever dwindling number of branches nowadays.... |
