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.

Upper Class Public School Kids, Dressed Down At the Weekends Ready For Trouble At A Millwall Football Match.............A source commented these rich kids are so well up on the dirty tactis of bullying.

That looks like Ed Balls-up on the far right (he can't even get that correct), and that little chap at the back looking insignificant, is that Milli-pede, (no change there then)
Of course the person in the window has got their measure, it looks like Bo-Jo.

Ex-UKIP MEP charged

"Westworld" to be re-created for a TV series.

Should be good, eh?

http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2014/jul/23/westworld-hbo-anthony-hopkins-evan-rachel-wood-remake

Westworld, set in the near future, imagines a theme park that recreates the Wild West, complete with artificially intelligent cowboys that visitors can shoot and kill, as well as pliant robots who agree to sexual encounters. A malfunction spreads through the robots, causing them to turn violently against the park's human visitors – with a robot gunslinger played by Yul Brynner most lethal of all. Released in 1973, it was directed by Michael Crichton, and was an early adopter of CGI.

Now HBO is expanding the action into a long-form TV series, a "dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the future of sin", according to the Hollywood Reporter. Hopkins will play the "brilliant, taciturn and complicated creative director" of the park, while Wood will play an android farmer girl "who is about to discover that her entire idyllic existence is an elaborately constructed lie."

Softening the Electorate up imo.

Interest rates will rise but to a lower level than before, Mark Carney says
Mark Carney, the Governor of the Bank of England, says interest rates will rise but not to past levels


By Steven Swinford, Senior Political Correspondent1:40PM BST 23 Jul 2014

Interest rates will rise but at a more "gradual and limited" rate than in the past, the Governor of the Bank of England has said.
The increase to more “normal” levels will be welcomed by many savers who have faced record low rates for more than six years, but is likely to plunge many borrowers into financial difficulty.
Mr Carney said that the rise in interest rates is likely to be lower than in the past because of the "headwinds" still facing the economy.


Asked if the interest rate will be around 2.5 per cent, Mr Carney said it will be "less than normal".
He said that historically low interest rates pose a threat to the housing market, which has the potential to 'tip the economy' into recession as people reduce spending to meet their mortgage payments.
Speaking at the Commonwealth Games Business Conference in Glasgow, Mr Carney said: "As the economy normalises, the Bank Rate will need to rise in order to achieve the inflation target.
"The Monetary Policy Committee is supporting investment through clear guidance that it expects increases in the Bank Rate, once they begin, to be gradual and limited.
"This is in part because the headwinds facing the economy are likiely to take some time to die down. These headwinds include public balance sheet repair, a highly indebted private sector as well as the drag from a 12 per cent appreciation of sterling over the past year."
He said that the housing market poses a threat to "everyone from Land's End to John O'Groats, including those that do not own their homes.
He said: "History shows that British people do everything they can to pay their mortgages. That means cutting back deeply on expenditures when the unexpected happens. If a lot of people are highly indebted, that could tip the economy back into recession."
Mr Carney said that after the longest and deepest downturn since the Second World War, the UK was finally returning to full growth.

0.25% The next move in rates

So, the horses mouth has spoken!


The whole economy depends on house prices, oh, and dirt cheap labour doesent hurt either.

Do you 2 know each other?

Sad but true MaxK

UK economy is a "One trick pony"

GF.

I don't know what you part of the country is like, but everywhere in the Midlands I wander there see road construction, repair and other infrastructure works. Many of them should have been done 3 years ago.

I think this government of Russian cronies and incompetents are trying to look good by attempting flash in the pan stimulus.

But comrades what do I know.

LOL, doing my road today Fred.

Big black patches of tarmac.

Yeah. Three years ago, the country didn't have a pot to piss in after the one-eyed Scottish monster had bled us dry with his scorched earth policy. Thank your lucky stars that your mates from the Burlington Club have managed to save the UK during that time.

Strewth. There's just no pleasing some folks!

They could do with sending the boys from the blackstuff down to my area of sunny Hampshire, the roads are going to the dogs, potholes everywhere!

Obviously all the tax payers money is going oop north.

The harpy has spoke.

But I hope she takes her knickers off before you pisses them again.

Perhaps, she should cut down on what you are imbibes.

By the way what are the tax laws like of UK in Austria.

Heard some of the books are being looked at a little more closely!

I wonder if she has parted any cash for the con party funds.

Forgot she is not Rushing enough!

Does that inane drivel translate into anything that's understandable?

With a cynical grin, Russian business magnate Kirill Babayev told an audience of his peers how to inveigle their way into the British Establishment.

The first step, he declared, is to hire a few ‘grey-haired’ members of the House of Lords to act as ‘consultants’, or non-executive directors, of your company.

For just a few thousand pounds a month (chicken-feed to the average oligarch) they’ll usually agree to take a seat in your boardroom, Babayev said, providing an instant boost to a wealthy Russian’s prestige and contacts book.
