    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It’s surely just common sense though Dave. Looks to me that either the people running DFE are stupid or trying to prove a point…I’m guessing the latter I think the governments issue was more that a majority were WFH. As I’ve said, I personally don’t have an issue with any WFH, it’s none of my...

    No, loads got stung I think. Just checked and current share price is at $96 so it would’ve been very painful for those late to the party

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I don’t know Pete, unless there’s some massive turnaround I can’t see Johnson winning the next election. Police fines or not, a lot of the public have lost trust and the government look devoid of ideas. That’s why I thought Starmer/Labour were wrong to major on pushing for resignations following...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yeah, strange. I honestly can’t believe he avoided more fines after getting one for that ‘birthday party’ which I thought would be the lesser of the offences

    Sorry for the long post but my mate text me this…made me feel a bit better about current investment shitstorm (I also hate the big boys who short stuff). I put my favourite part in bold 😂 Melvin Capital goes bust. Turns out, investing isn't so easy when the free money faucet turns off. The...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I think it probably represents 100% of the retrospective fines though…possibly for the whole country. I’m not condoning what happened, it was wrong, however, the police would’ve turned a blind eye to most potential breaches during the pandemic yet couldn't here. If they investigated all of them...

    Five…someone likes to party !!! Govey on the rave Acting Deputy Commissioner Helen Ball said: 'In total we have made 126 referrals for a fixed-penalty notice to be issued.. 28 people have been referred for between two and five fixed-penalty notices.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Agreed. The club is still massively loss making though and I wouldn’t be surprised if rates go up further, assuming they’re able to secure a refinance.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Agreed. Unless there’s some dramatic changes the model doesn’t appear to work. It’s all well and good owning a ground but if youre having to pay 6.5%* pa (£2m) just to service interest on the debt with dwindling crowds/match day income then you’re going to struggle. The only things I can think...

    The authorities are going to have to start dishing out massive fines and/or force clubs to play behind close doors (if a player is assaulted on the pitch) to nip this in the bud, otherwise it’s only going to get worse. This situation has been coming for a while

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

    I heard. I still think/hope it will come in some form Edit - I think BP said their short term/10 year low carbon investment plans wouldn’t change with a windfall tax. I’d imagine that everyone wants these ramped up even further though. If they did then at least there’d be some kind of...

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

    Bizarre position to take in the current climate. They know the additional profiteering* that’s going on and I’d imagine a large number of them actually agree with the policy, yet voted against it because it was raised by Labour. *I don’t mind companies generating extra profits but as I...

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

    As I said, I don’t think it would be in anyones interests to have a trade war especially at the current time. The U.K. and a number of EU countries might well be in recession by the end of this year/early next and additional tariffs on goods is not going to help consumers with inflation/cost of...

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

    Could try that approach I suppose ! As they turned down Mays deal and are now rejecting the protocol I can’t see what solution would ever work for them. let’s hope a sensible compromise might be enough to at least get them back to Stormont though

    Yeah, not sure how to deal with the DUP in all this

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

    I was responding to the threat of the trade war. The legislation is due to take weeks, I’d be shocked if negotiations don’t continue in the background

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

    Posturing on both sides. Neither side wants the protocol to be totally scrapped (well, apart from DUP maybe) or needs a trade war, especially at the moment with the war, out of control inflation and potential recession
