Meanwhile, in Germany, it appears that the third bailout package, put in place to enable the Greeks to pay their interest, is quickly going down the sh!tter. Merkel will host IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker in separate meetings at the Chancellery on Wednesday, Ulrike Demmer, a government spokeswoman, told reporters in Berlin on Friday. The German government still insists on the IMF making a financial contribution to Greece’s bailout, Finance Ministry spokeswoman Friederike von Tiesenhausen said at the same press conference. The fund "will" contribute as much as 5 billion euros ($5.33 billion) to the country’s third rescue package, German magazine Der Spiegel reported Friday, without saying where it obtained the information. The IMF are digging their heels in and as a result, 2 year Greek bonds have hit a Wonga level of 10%. Sit back and watch the fun. The meltdown begins...

So, what you are saying is the "top 10 kippers" on here fall for fake news if it fits their prejudice but you don't. Mate keep digging. You can't even spot real news. As for your little fishing trip, you're straight on ignore, so you don't catch me anymore. Communicating with a complete moron is never any fun and I don't want to encourage you.

You are a clown, mate. The article was talking about sex attacks in Frankfurt that were falsely reported one year after the Cologne attacks that were correctly reported and filmed, FFS....

An update on climate change in California: Then.... This morning... "Researchers from Cornell University, the University of Arizona and U.S. Geological Survey say their predictions should be viewed as 'conservative' as not enough is being done to curb emissions that lead to climate change."

Four quotes from my hero, Winston Churchill, seem quite apposite at the moment. When asked what qualities a politician required: and one for Donald Trump:

I'm not angry, but while we're at it, I dislike your total contempt for democracy and refusal to admit you were wrong about the consequences of Brexit. For those two reasons, I shall refrain from calling you matey and use the term, clueless chump, or CC, in future. OK, CC?

I think all I have to say is that, given the total lack of evidence to the contrary, you are a patronising, clueless, self-opinionated windbag. I do hope that is not too "over the top", matey...

The madness you are talking about is called democracy. Something that is in short supply in the EU. Thanks for the comment that I somehow don't understand a complex issue. I happen to have been dead right on the degree of impact (or lack of) Brexit would have on our economy, from last June and the fact that we should and would, be able to negotiate a free trade deal with the US. You, George Osborne, the BoE and the Treasury have been totally wrong, so cut the patronising bullsh!t, matey and admit you didn't have a clue, apart from some post facto posturing. At least the other clueless remainers have had the decency to disappear from this thread, rather than looking like chumps.

This may help the day traders...

I agree 100% with this. The reason the market thinks interest rates might be going up? Because the UK economy is doing so well. As you have posted in the past, the BoE cut interest rates to support a perceived weakness in the economy, post Brexit. As we now know, they were wrong. Interest rates won't be going up soon, in my opinion, anyway. We are on the cusp of a weak currency, export lead, growth boom and I can't wait. Still, nice to have a Remainer like you agreeing that interest rates are now driving the value of the pound more than whether we stay inside or outside the EU. We finally have control of our currency value again, unlike Greece and the other sick men of Europe.

Pound crashes as a result of the Commons vote on Brexit?: There must be fortunes to be made in shorting our currency.

I love how all the experts are quick to change the tune that the leave posters were dancing to, before the referendum. This report by PWC is worth a read. So to recap. Before: After: All these piles of steaming turds, left by the overpaid "experts", explain why people who aren't bright enough to do a proper science degree , do accountancy instead. What it doesn't explain is why the sheep on this site still poke every new piece of cr@p they deposit with a stick and talk about it on here. We are leaving, guys and as long as we don't rely on accountants who are bad at starting and growing new businesses, we will be fine.

I found this part of Professor Burrage's Paper quite interesting and backs up what I've suspected about the patronising political elite in this country for a while :

That's 2 of my 5 a day gone. I'll just have to replace them with two pints of IPA. UK beer is yet to be affected by Brexit, according to Farage, as he's rarely seen without a glass in his hand. I pity the salad eating metropolitan elite, though. They'll sure to be picketing Tesco's over the weekend.

I think this guy can help: According to Michael Burrage, in the 13 years before Britain joined the then European Economic Community, British exports to the 11 core states saw growth of 131 per cent. Exports also grew by 136 per cent between 1973 and 1993 as the union worked together on the creation of a Common Market system. But the value of UK exports to the same 11 economies has only risen by 2.5 per cent in the last 23 years since the creation of the single market. I now expect ad hominem attacks on this author, together with any groups to which he is affiliated, rather than any evidence to the contrary.

You've just got to laugh, haven't you?: 6 months ago Today:

Her husband is a real dumbass, who is rapidly being drained of his cash by, b! tches cleverer than him: Classy.... Add to the million his genius current wife has lost in their business and the legal costs he's spunked with a pointless PR campaign against the government and I see stormy waters ahead for this clown. He really should have kept his pecker in his trousers. Still, his lawyers must love him to death.

It looks like Gina Miller follows Saints Web: The self-deluded, self-important b! tch should stick to draining her husband of his rapidly shrinking bank balance and not the taxpayer as well.... ....as a wise man once said, if it flies, floats or f***s, rent it.

Donald Trump and Theresa May have delivered a rebuke to the EU by agreeing the first steps in a new free trade deal two years before Brexit. In defiance of claims that Britain should not launch substantive negotiations with other countries until after Britain leaves the EU, the two leaders thrashed out an agreement that they would trade “more than ever”. At lunch on Friday, Trump pledged to ensure that the trade arrangements that the UK has with the US through its membership of the EU will continue when the UK leaves. May and Trump also agreed to start a new trade negotiation agreement that will see high-level talks between the two nations begin immediately

After spending 30 seconds reading it and considering the result of the referendum, how can any Member of Parliament vote against it?

Her own words do a better job, I must admit: “Physically sick?” I know how you feel, love. I bet that quote will resonate with the voters outside London.

For anyone interested, here's the lowdown on Gina Miller, the person who seeks to provide the British Government legal advice on the way we exit the EU: She isn't just a legal expert, because her and her third husband run a very successful "investment management company", SCM Private LLP. SCM Private LLP Statement of Comprehensive Income Year ended 30 April 2016 [TABLE=width: 500] [TR] [TD][/TD] [TD]2016[/TD] [TD]2015[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Turnover[/TD] [TD]£ 285,251[/TD] [TD]£ 301,682[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Cost of sales[/TD] [TD]£ 68,859[/TD] [TD]£ 135,410[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Gross profit[/TD] [TD]£ 216,392[/TD] [TD]£ 166,272[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Administrative expenses[/TD] [TD]£ 423,756[/TD] [TD]£ 607,012[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Operating loss[/TD] [TD]£ (207,364)[/TD] [TD]£ (440,740)[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] I think the government should sign her up, immediately, to provide advice on negotiating the best trade deal for the UK. I, for one, will be hanging on her every word regarding managing my investments. On second thoughts, I'd work on snagging a more financially successful 4th husband, love. It's the only way you'll make any money. This publicity stunt is only going to bring you grief....

I posted that the EU is f***ed, not Europe....

This court case is a very minor apostrophe in the story of the UK exiting the EU. The next paragraph will be written on Friday, when a joint announcement will be made regarding a bilateral trade deal with the US, together with passporting rights for UK financial institutions. These will be introduced into law within 3 months of the EU exit. What this will do is provide an immense level of strength to Mays hand in the upcoming Brexit negotiations. The US has stated that it is only interested in bilateral trade deals with nation states, leaving the EU in the sh!tter when it comes to their much vaunted capability of doing trade deals. The EU is so f***ed...

The story so far: Opening post: Daily Telegraph today: Remainers should have carefully read the opening post, from the 27th June last year. It would have saved a lot of tears and worry.
