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.

Since the new lead appears to be from emails from either Huma Abedin or her creepy husband, Wiener, appropriate name, I would guess that there may be a conflict with evidence previously given. The rumour mill is that it was investigating agents that forced Comey's hand.
Clinton is a scheming liar but it may not involve her directly. If is does and she is indicted, she will have to resign. Since it will all happen after the nomination, her nutter of a running mate will become President. Still, anything will be an improvement on O'bummer.

There's some who think a small rise to 1.5-2.5% in inflation is a disaster,
but obviously they didn't live through the 24.2% that was recorded in 1975
and between 1974(16%)to 1981(11.9%).

The low pound has encourage exporters/manufacturers, stay at home tourist,
foreign tourist(not counting those health tourist).
They call it swings and roundabouts...Winners and Losers...
The ruling elite see their gravytrain being taken away from them, those like
the cleggs, kinnocks(all the family) seeing their EU gold plated pensions stopped
(or maybe not).

The target of the BoE is 2% annual inflation. I was amused to see 2 successive articles on Euronews. The first was about the fear of inflation in the UK with the fall in the pound. The second was the encouraging signs that inflation was picking up in the EU.

"I leave it to clever boys like you to ask Brussels questions"
I don't need to ask Brussels any questions, my whole being is for LEAVING.
It wasn't me that made the statement "I wonder whether the USA's
political elite and more or less competent then the UK's/"
When the majority of rules and laws emanate from Brussels that effect
the UK then yes YOU should be asking the same question YOU did in relation
to the competence of the UK and the USA, after all its YOU that wants to
remain in the EU, so YOU should be asking whether THEY"RE competent,
which the answer would undoubtably be....NO THEY'RE NOT COMPETENT...
But you're quite happy to go along with the european project super dream..

Go and take a cold shower!
If you did read the articles it may give a chance to reflect on your decision making when you wasted you vote in the referendum!

If anyone expected or got any unbiased reporting from the PRO-EU guardian,
they wern't disappointed.
I always like to hear two sides of a story, what we got in those articles were
a biased, rabid anti British, deceiving , can't stand on our own feet diatribe of
such sycophantic proportions that i've ever heard, and thought i'd must of heard
it all in the past, obviously not..
This quote was a cracker...
"It is forgotten that Europe, especially the EU is a veritable success story, as
this continent has never before experienced a period as the past seven decades
of democracy peace and prosperity"
Absolutely no mention of NATO, the Balkans wars, where the EU did absolutely
nothing, the EU's involvement in the Ukraine, the severe austerity measures in
Greece, where 50%(and several other countries) of the youth are unemployed,
the riots in Greece, economic stagnation, the removal of democraticlly elected
leaders of EU countries replaced by puppets of Brussels..
I could go on, but if these journalist wasn't writing those articles without their
'tongue in cheeks' they should be ashamed of themselves for having the audacity
to call themselves 'journalist'...
But writing articles for the guardian does not involve neutrality...

MaxK 74344....Yes those 30 year old 'children' look to be in poor health and
desperately need to get to the UK to be re-united with their parents.
After traveling through numerous safe, free countries they can now see
the freedom and prosperity(benefits) beckoning from the shores of the UK,
and would along with the cajoling and help of the French political elite hope to
achieve their aims...

As i've stated in the recent past, the 'remoaner's' are really pissed that a
foreign business has committed themselves to the UK, and are confident
enough to invest and produce their new models in the north east of England.
You can feel how desperate the 'remoaner's' are getting in their rabid rantings
that they spew out on a daily constant basis the nearer it gets to the triggering
of article50...
