Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

It is not tax avoidance. It is tax planning and very sensible. There is nothing even slightly wrong with transferring property between married partners. The tax laws have been changed several times. We have had joint assessments, separate assessments, transferable tax allowances and various schemes overseas the years. It is right and proper that people can adjust their tax affairs according to the law.

Blair should have been wrung out and hung up, but he was for many a tory mole.


Isn't that a similar rodent to a rat.

Cameron and the future torrid party leader looking into their own abyss!

Suppose it could have been the Hazy one and Manuel.

GF - "Were talking about the future Max ....not the past"

Exactly ....You really want to be careful what you wish for! Red flag flyers will never learn. Sadly never will the so called electorate. Bob Crowe, you really believe he gave a shit?

Will take more than cynic to save this thread, doomed since you became Fred The Reds bitch. If Hays and cynic ever decide not to answer your incessant left wing shite, you and Fred will be doing exactly as the title states talking to yourselves and boy do you deserve each other :O)

Hays says its not tax avoidance ohhhh my gosh LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOLL LOL LO LOL

your getting to be a figure of ridicule Hays.

Chris who gives a F what you think now FO you washed up has been. We know your Robbie Burns bitch. Cant think for yourself.

Bet you darent go on cockney rebels thread on advfn and repeat what youve just said here about Bob Crow his brother. The thread not cockney would lynch you.

Miliband has changed his no referendum stance to a definite possibly maybe if there is a lunar eclipse and Z in the month.

He has had a road to Damascus revelation that the issue is an important one for the public. He has come up with one of his usual half-policies to demonstrate his lack of leadership.

Whos the tory FRAUD BOY today then Hays????????????????????????????????

Ohhhhhhh well weve had hammond, no doubt before market closes we'l have another candidate.

Dont worry Hays when weve won the electon we wont forget you .........Rachel Reeves was telling me last saturday all Council tax bands A and B will be raised by at least 25%.

Youl look forward to that Old bean.

The lesser spotted Millibandus chucks the next election out the window....




No EU referendum under Labour:

Ed Miliband to reveal that vote on membership is ‘unlikely’ in next Parliament if party wins power



In a landmark speech, Mr Miliband will declare that a Labour government’s top priorities would include the cost-of-living crisis and the NHS

Labour has decided not to match David Cameron’s pledge to hold a referendum on Europe in the next Parliament, Ed Miliband will announce.

The Labour leader, who has rejected pressure from his own party to promise the public a vote on Britain’s EU membership, will say that a referendum is “unlikely” to be needed in the 2015-20 administration.

In a landmark speech in London, he will declare that a Labour government’s top priorities would include the cost-of-living crisis and the NHS. He will draw a contrast with a Conservative government that, he will claim, would be distracted by a renegotiation of the UK’s EU membership terms that could take several years. However, Mr Miliband will strengthen Labour’s commitment to an eventual referendum by promising a straight in/out vote if there were a “significant transfer of powers” from the UK to the EU.

Talking about sleaze

Nick Sinclaire, the independent MEP who left UKIP after falling out with the party, has just asked in the European Parliament:

“With unemployment still a problem across Europe and and indeed across the UK, does Mr Farage thinks it is a fair use of taxpayers’ money, namely his secretarial allowance, not only to employ his wife Kirsten but his former mistress Annabelle Fuller?”

“I don’t want to answer that at all,” he replies…

Terribly sorry old beans(posh accent) to interrupt the political debate going on here...but as this is a finance website(almost forgot reading this jargon here) I thought I might attract your undivided attention to little Faroe Petroleum (FPM)....could be a winner....alright you can carry on now....don't say I didn't tell you....

I'm wondering if this Malaysian aircraft was not not hit by a satellite debris or a meteorite of some kind.....or if it was a bombing : a swallowed bomb or bombs by passengers perhaps...crazy..but perhaps....positioning themselves next to the exit doors...losing compression at high altitude...and resulting in a terrible dive in one piece hitting the ocean at an acute angle sinking immediately...

Thanks for the tip rf.


But politics affects the quid in your bin far more than any investment.

The bastards are not using their money, they're using yours!


And getting paid for it (plus expenses) (lots)

My pleasure MaxK...looks a good'un......

GF - Grow up for FS Cockney Rebel thread ADVFN don't make me laugh! You deserve each other.

And now for some discussion on the new Alzheimer's blood test recently disclosed in the press....

According to US researchers this blood test can accurately predict the onset of Alzheimer's disease. They showed that testing levels of 10 fats in the blood could predict, with 90% accuracy, the risk of the disease coming on within the next three years.



It is not clear exactly what is causing the change in fats in the blood but it could be a residue of the early changes in the brain which begin to occur when dementia changes kick off.

I got to thinking how it might affect you if you went for the test and the results proved positive. In other words, within 3 years dementia is going to take hold of your brain and your ability to even 'retain full control of just being yourself' is going to diminish.

And how might it affect your relationship with your partner if he/she know the result of the test too?

I've always wanted to know results about medical tests which can tell you important stuff about yourself and have gone for quite a few of them. eg. full body scans and the like.

I must admit to feeling a tadge scared to take this one. I feel absolutely mentally fine now so should I just 'skip it' if the opportunity actually comes along and I get asked if I would like to take it by my doctor? Or would I take from his suggestion, that he is 'making an inference' from what or how I say something during the consultation with him?

Hmmm?

Would you like to know, that in 3 years time you are going to start going demented?

Chris ........kiss kiss kiss kiss

Some say you have got a gay thing for fred. Is this true?. You keep trying to get his attention every couple of days or so.

Fred watch out corks to the ready. Chris Carson is about.(aka the Aberdeen ass licker)

ExecLine - I think I would prefer not to know, it's a different scenario from something like bowel cancer which can be cured if detected quickly enough.

On other hand.

If you know you're going to forget who you are, you might as well go on the piss and spend all the inheritance money chasing wimmin and enjoying yourself.

Whats to lose?

I have just been through about five years of Alzheimer's with my father in law who died just a year ago. It is all very well having the test done, but the treatments are pretty primitive. The current drugs only work for about a year in terms of slowing things up. I can see that the prospect of early tests is a good thing when the treatment improves, but that is a long way off. There has to be a constant push for earlier diagnosis as it will be important when there is a good treatment path.

It does depend on what type of Alzheimer's is involved. Some types hardly respond to drugs. Once the drugs stop working for a person the recourse is to more of a tranquilizer type of treatment. It also takes people very differently. A family friend's mother developed the disease and became violent and although living with her son and daughter, kept announcing that her children were coming to get her. She was very strong and threw both her children down stairs even though they were middle aged. She tried to stab her daughter and used to run away.

My father in law was better and was not physically violent. His personality did change and he became outspoken from being very quiet. A lot of it was quite humorous. He saw a woman in a burka in the street and shouted loudly, "look at the state of that". He told a very fat woman that she needed two chairs to sit on. He found a new friend in the mirror and used to have long conversations with Jock.
