    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    OK I'll bite. Whether this is a big plus or not depends on the deals that we manage to make. It won't be a one way thing, everyone we make a deal with will want something in return. Its far from certain we will end up in a better position than we are currently. Its also unknown how long these...

    WWE streams seemed to have dropped massively since they started their own legit service. They had a big clampdown on streams when it first started and as its only $9.99 a month for a perfect HD legal stream I think most people go for that. NHL streams have been clamped down on as well since MLB...

    How much effort they put into blocking UK users will come down to how much fuss Sky kicks up. The clubs / EFL won't care where they subscription money is coming from. Can't imagine it having much of an impact on Sky subscription numbers or match attendances so it will most likely be easy to...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Well the US Commerce Secretary has already said a deal with the UK is a low priority and a free trade agreement with the EU is more important. Canada will likely be more responsive but CETA took 8 years. Onto India then, who was it that sunk the EU / India trade deal by refusing to accept Mode...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Under this government we've had the lowest rate of housebuilding since the 1920's and under May's term as Home Secretary we had the highest level of net migration in history. They also voted against laws to ensure rental properties were fit for human habitation.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    What about people who lose their jobs or become ill. They can't afford to pay their mortgage so need to sell but they can't sell for enough to pay off their mortgage.

    Eh? Barclays are going to Dublin, as are Standard Charter, Lloyds to Berlin and HSBC to Paris.JP Morgan splitting between Frankfurt and Dublin, Morgan Stanley and Citigroup the same, Goldman Sachs to Frankfurt and Credit Suisse to Dublin. It would be a big problem for people who ended up with...

    General Election

    This HSBC thing seems really dodgy. Loaning hundreds of millions at the height of the financial crisis to a company in trouble who in turn then made multi million donations to the Conservatives. Then the chairman of HSBC was made a peer and the government put pressure on US investigators not to...

    General Election

    Totally agree with this. Abbot is a nightmare and she's messed this interview up royally but it gives a prime example of the issues with bias in the media. The interview in question was preceded by 6 others where she correctly quoted the figures as this plan has been fully costed. Compare the...

    D Day Today

    Wouldn't be bothered if most of the squad went. That said don't make the same mistake as last year and release players and then not get in replacements.
