xxxxxy re the High Court and JP Morgan. It's good to see the contracts are under England jurisdiction as it is at least one area of the economy which will boom.

Mainstream UK news is the last place you should be looking to if you want to know what's really going. Not least because of local reporting restrictions & embargos. Get a VPN and watch other state broadcasters if you must have the security blanket of an establishment broadcaster. Quite a lot of the online content on you tube comes from these sources. Alternatively, if its all a bit too much, just watch the BBC & C4.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, the chancellor and business secretary have written to the UK's main regulators asking them to come up with ideas for reform that could boost economic growth.

They contacted watchdogs, including energy regulator Ofgem and water regulator Ofwat, before Christmas asking them to submit proposals by mid-January.

This comes after figures published earlier this week indicated the UK economy had flatlined between July and September.

3 guesses ano or ano or another Quango

Pathos personified
Sad for poor Joe tho'

As if the ruinous regulators have a clue FGS Kneel - u need to do one with ur clueless female cabinet !!

While I'm waiting for a chap to call I started weighing up some toffees the missus bought for the granddaughter. A box of 'liquorice favourites'. Big box 144 cu in. Contains 290 gms of stuff. It would easily fit into half the box. One item was a bar of toffee. The bag is 5in long. The bar within it is 3in long. I then weighed up a box of liquorice allsorts. About 60cu in. 350 gm of toffee. There should be rules governing this stuff. IMO it's fraud. Not only is a box twice the size of the stuff within misleading to the point of lying it's also a waste of materials and waste disposal space. Bakers dozen an all that. When nige rules they will get their hands chopped off

Hate the woke political op-eds of the BBC as much as you do scruff, but that's only a tiny part of what they do. Its the swing of the pendulum! I remember the hot topic of the day in the seventies when the BBC (Alf Garnet et al) was accused of exasperating race relations for a laugh. Tony Booth claimed the show was about a dysfunctional family, nothing more. The downside was that many people sided with Alf's bigotry! Johnny Speight himself felt marginalized as a kid growing up in the East End when he saw To Let signs next door saying "No blacks, dogs or Irish"

The world's biggest bank is shunning British debt amid fears that Rachel Reeves has stoked inflation with record increases in the minimum wage and a £40bn tax raid.JP Morgan Asset Management, which has $3.3 trillion (£2.6 trillion) of assets under management, including more than $750bn in bonds, said "big uncertainty" over the magnitude of next year's wage increases and the impact on prices meant it was steering clear of UK gilts.. .Daily Telegraph

Good grooming ground for many presenters too

The problem is GNR that the majority want it to remain as one of the pillars of Britain's culture. Like most other once great British institutions such as the universities, the police and judi iary and so on it is now betraying our heritage as its been infiltrated and hijacked by woke and liberal lefty anti British, anti free speech and anti impartiality entryists

Clearly, you haven't even looked at the interview, where it is Sonia being interviewed!
Secondly, in your above post you seem to hold the BBC in high esteem. This shows how out of touch and ignorant you are.

Perhaps you should have opened up the link before spouting drivel. Yes...
