And some proportion of unemployment will always be with us. The personal character and ability necessarily to want and to keep a job is a bell curve.

I don't know what will happen so you may be right. Will you play the post back to me if I'm right? ;) I have a lot of respect for all those you mention, especially Rees-Mogg (with the exception of the time that he supported Trump). Listen to what he says; he's logical and calm and almost...

One more factor that will impact the poor negatively, which has nothing to do with the EU... There has been a very hard push against landlords over the past few budgets: No longer able to net off interest on mortgages for tax (causing some landlords to sell up); stamp duty increase (which...

I think there will be fewer immigrants. Who knows if the population will actually fall? That totally depends upon whether we can agree with the EU that existing immigrants can stay - but the intention is that they can (good, as it would be tremendously unfair otherwise). Interest rates will...

I yawn because you think up bad things by yourself, jump to conclusions without considering alternatives and then state them as fact. 1. No, there is not a majority of even the Tory party that want a hard brexit. Are there any? Sure, just like your previous facts that the far right are...

And also an awful lot of people who are not far anything. What's the point exactly? That some people with extreme views support Brexit? Sure, agreed. Just as some ginger-haired people do; some lesbians; some disabled people; some 18-year olds; some Liberals... EDIT: Not aimed at you Grendel.

Some mammals are cats. Some cats are grey. Therefore all mammals are grey.

Which British Brexiteers have said that they want to break up the whole EU? Who has said that they want the far right to gain power in Europe?

Should people younger than 23 stay in the eu and only people older leave? Has anyone any stats on the average height of those who voted each way in the referendum? Perhaps tall people leave and shorties remain?

Can you explain more? Intuitively low interest rates would cause a bubble and increasing demand would make it worse.

This is my earlier point. When an economy is growing well it needs higher interest rates to avoid a bubble. If Germany had its own currency they wouldn't be low. But Greece needs low interest rates.

I'm surprised that you are making this point, as it emphasises the relatively poor expectations of the Eurozone economy over the next 10 years compared to the UK. Fixed rate loan rates are calculated from the swaps market, which 'averages' expected rates over the next 10 years. Rates rise when...

I've been really dumb recently. I've tried to organise demonstrations in countries in danger of having right wing extremists voted in. When they denied me access I called them 'Nazi remnants' and my people have been rioting in the streets. Silly me, I shouldn't have done that.

Muni's are also usually fixed interest. Floating rate bonds are usually issued by corporates.

Government bonds are typically at a fixed interest rate. The issue would be further borrowing not existing.

I'm sure there are as well as some with vested interests to keep it together or to expand. I don't trust any politicians.

Haven't a clue what they are - reminder that I make my own mind up based on the facts I see and my knowledge and experience. It doesn't have to be a conspiracy theory; I'm not saying Germany did it cynically. However what has happened is exactly what I wrote - Greece is suffering and Germany...

No, they need to take back their currency so they can trade their way out. Greece suffers from a strong EUR (for them) so that Germany can enjoy the benefits of a relatively weak currency. EMU has shafted the weaker European countries. Greece was weak before it entered the EUR and every...
