Now we can be ruled over by a pile of cunts in London rather than foreign cunts in Brussels. This is the grim reality of it. I'd genuinely trust a tedious Latvian technocrat to decide what's best for me more than I would most of "our" politicians. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily it hasn't been mentioned since before the talks started. Apparently Hogan Lovells and the civil service are all over this like a rash. General opinion seems to be that if “mutual access” isn’t tied up, it will be the EU and UK who lose out to New York and Singapore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4729 Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 50 minutes ago, NJS said: Explain the economics behind rising interest rates causing an economy to rise. Based purely on Mark Charley’s interview last week. He was basically saying that slight increases would be a sign of the economy starting to return to normal (following the crash) which would be overall a good thing with regard to investment in the UK, the pound and inflation. Im not going to get into an economics theory argument with anyone as to whether he’s right or not. Well above my pay grade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21959 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 yes, i imagine all the international banks based in the City of London will abandon their European timezone operations entirely, moving everything to NY and Singapore rather than a much cheaper relocation to Frankfurt or Paris.

Most international trade lawyers think WTO will be a major issue in the short term at least. Still, you know best. Fucking hell:lol: You told me to “go and research it” and then cry because I did.

Dr Gloom 21959 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 may talking a lot of about social injustices and the disadvantaged ethnic minorities. sensible, given how corbyn has shifted the centre ground, but hardly likely to play well with the boris fanboys...
