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.

This is what Osborne said before the national living wage came into effect...

'Osborne warns firms not to cut perks on back of
National Living wage'

bbc.co.uk/news/business-36082247


Buts that's exactly whats happening, along with overtime and Sunday
rates being cut back..

So it dosn't surprise anyone when they see the recent rise in
unemployment, when employers are either delaying employing
anyone or laying people off.

And nothing to do with the uncertainty of a Brexit, like the remainers
would have believe..

UKIP getting one seat is perfect, well almost. We will have to wait for a few of years before they get zero.

Livingstone said on daily politics that Hitler supported Zionism,

He has been suspended for bringing the party into disrepute (which is quite difficult these days).

LIVING WAGE AND PERKS
as freebies cannot be counted as payment in kind, it is surely no surprise that many companies are cutting back on free lunches and the like

Now that a jury has decided that 96 of our countrymen were unlawfully killed, and North Yorkshire police has unequivocally accepted the verdicts, its about time that the government sent in assessors and sorted out compensation for the dead and injured.
Its not right that the families now have to sue with all the costs and delays that involves. In the end it will be the public purse that pays so Theresa May should get on with it.
We have to pay up promptly for failing countries in the EU and outside with foreign aid or bribes. Charity begins at home, or ought to. However in this case it is not charity, it's compensation for 27 years of lies and arse covering by senior public officials.

and of course the lying top brass should be sent for trial and jailed ....... but bet that doesn't happen

That can happen, or not, in due time. But that shouldn't delay any more the justice for all the families. We need to show Margaret Aspinall and co that this country truly cares for them and will not tolerate any more procrastination.

Wrong thread, that's what this one is for http://www.moneyam.com/InvestorsRoom/posts.php?tid=16823#lastread

Haystacks you have your own reasons for having that opinion, but the way Labour are going the opportunity could be opening up for UKIP to take lumps of voters from them as well as the Tory's..Sticking it up the establishment......

YeeeeeeHaaaaaa.....

Plus of course when a political party gets nearly 13% of the
vote then most certainly they should get more then ONE seat..
Whether you disagree with a party's policy's or not.

Otherwise it just makes a mockery of democracy....

UKIP would need a huge increase in their share of the vote to get any more seats. The demographics are against them.

Once the referendum is over, UKIP will be an irrelevance as the result will be settled either way. UKIP is not a party but is a pressure group. If we stay in the EU then UKIP has no function and the same is true if we leave.

Well if you want to put it that way..The houses of Parliament
will be irrelevant if there's a vote to remain, because there's
only one way the EU is going and that's to further integration,
more rules and regulations from Brussels meaning those MP's
will be surplus to requirements.

One of the things that Cameron got from his negotiations was an exemption for the UK regarding further integration.

These 'negotiations' havn't been ratified yet, they have to go
before the commisioners and the judges, they could reject them..
And even if they passed them the Eu would find a way to get
round them by changing some wording or moving a comer or full stop.

They had a referendum in Holland a couple of weeks ago and voted
against the Ukraine getting visa free access into the EU, the Brussels
gangsters totally ignored the result and their 'own rules' and carried
on with their AGENDA .......

Thanks Fred for reminding us of the the €U mantra:

Well at least your trying Max, well done.

I wonder if this has any connection with the above?
