Cosy club sounds better than disaster capitalism and a deregulated free for all.

If we have a larger work force, but only 4,2% unemployment and lots of vacancies, e.g. over 100000 in the NHS, then your argument falls flat. It is actually a regional problem. Neglect of areas outside of London for example. That seems to be the problem. In some areas where population was...

It was meant sarcastically... subtle though ;-)

In the 90s there was a recession. People were glad to sell. Now we have 4,2% unemployment and the government has no plans for building affordable housing. The population of Cov grew massively in the 50s and 60s and early 70s with migrants from all over the UK, Ireland and the ex empire. Council...

Fitness industry? That’s a new one. I hadn’t considered the effect of migrants on fitness. Lower outgoings? How, if they live in our economy? Legally. 8,1bn net. But our GDP gains from frictionless trade and migrants fill vacancies. Which more than makes up for 8,1 bn. 1% of our 814 bn total is...

In what way? Can you Express it in financial or maybe rational terms? And, how long are you staying temporarily in the UK?

The problem with eventually, is that there is no time limit. Whatever happens we will not be better off than we are now. Geography being the key. Our major trading partners are our neighbours and we have been able to build on that and increase our trade with the rest of the world whilst being in...

The alternative is actually worse. That’s how far down we are.

I don’t know whether he normally agrees with me. He doesn’t insult me or post some rabid answer to my posts though. I don’t blame any one generation for us being overpopulated and global warming, but we had generations where things got better and our life expectancy was rising. We now have...

The UK resourcefulness was to help create the SM and CU to make up for us being on an island and the extra time and costs incurred because of that. Now we have a government that, on paper, is determined to bash that in order to stop the reciprocal FOM it involves. The UK will be working on a way...

The predictions are based on facts. The climate is getting warmer. Eat less beef. Demand falls. Less cattle. Your solution to too many people?

I’m in Berlin in January and March for a few days each time. I like it there. I stay in Neukölln. Multi cultural area. I’ve never had any problem there. Sort of hip place. Some on here don’t like Muslims, so they probably wouldn’t like it. I’m in Munich in February. I don’t go out much now after...

No it is donations from the 93 years old son of Hitler’s Bankier, August von Finck. The family made a lot of money during the aryanisation of Jewish businesses. Soros had to live under a false name at the time von Finck was being bought up in the Third Reich. I wonder what attracts people like...

Is As I said on another post: island of madness ( Insel des Irrsinns ). Brexit drags a proud nation into it’s downfall ( Untergang). Sums it up. That was a sub title on the front page of the Spiegel. The main headline was about dodgy donations to the hard right AfD from non EU sources via...

I believe leaving the EU must cause some form of disruption and it will be negative. We cannot have a better system than we have now. If you mess around with something that’s not broken, you are asking for trouble. Up until now the general opinion, based on impact assessments from a variety of...

Here is an explanation: Every kind of Brexit will make people worse off – even if Theresa May says otherwise

No of course I cannot. It is the general opinion that there would be a dip in the markets if it looks like we are crashing out. I cannot give you the evidence until it happens. But people will be speculating. Even me. I am waiting for a dip in the pound to make my holiday cheaper, but I have no...

Yes. The May proposal is better than no deal. I am not disputing that. It doesn’t make me a fool, but you make yourself look stupid by your reaction......as usual.

No surprise there then. Wait for all the „project fear“ claims. „Experts always get it wrong“. „I want proof“ etc.. Whatever happens there will turbulence on the markets and some who have the luck to control large amounts of money and can influence markets by making public statements, will be...

No, we’re on about people like you, now go back down your hole.
