THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

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.

Yes your right how silly of me ,plus the idiots at the EU with their fat pay packets will not realise they need to sit down and work things out ,not just with us but with many others as well.
Trust me the EU is coming to an end ,it's not if but when ..

grannyboy - 07 Dec 2016 17:47 - 75385 of 81564

Yes i heard a 'silly' remark from a journalist who said the UK might
have to pay into the EU coffers to pay the pensions, my first thought was the
Kinnocks and neils 180,000 a year....

Thats enough to stop paying into the eu by its self...LOL!

Excellent stuff from the Mirror on how to save yourself a fortune on TV subscriptions:

Whilst NI is hiked up for those earning more than £43k pa and to cost them £200 extra pa, some others have it 'very nice, thank you.'

Osborne earns £500,000 from New York speeches:

The former chancellor’s outside earnings in those two months alone are almost seven times higher than his annual salary as a backbench parliamentarian, which is around £74,000.

The latest three engagements to be declared are £85,396.24 from Citibank for two speeches, £34,109.14 from Black Rock, the investment firm, and £68,125.35 from Centerbridge Partners, a private investment firm.

Previous registers showed he was paid for another five speeches earning him between £28,000 and £81,000 each.

The most lucrative were two events for JP Morgan, the investment bank, at £81,174 and £60,578 each, one for Palmex Derivatives at £80,240, and another for the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association for £69,992.

The cheapest was an hour-long address to the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, for which he was paid £28,454.

Not a good result for UKIP in a Leave constituency. Even worse for Labour who were second at the GE.

Sleaford & North Hykeham result:

CON: 53.5% (-2.7)
UKIP: 13.5% (-2.2)
LDEM: 11.0% (+5.3)
LAB: 10.2% (-7.0)
LIND: 8.8% (+3.6)

Makes you laugh Osbourne making all that money from speeches for big banks , didn't he say we were going to sink if we voted out .

MaxK - 09 Dec 2016 15:40 - 75392 of 81564

It's just a way of buying influence, hedging bets, who knows where he will end up.

Haystack - 09 Dec 2016 15:42 - 75393 of 81564

We may sink yet. We haven't left.

jimmy b - 09 Dec 2016 16:13 - 75394 of 81564

Either way George is a snivelling little prat .

2517GEORGE - 09 Dec 2016 16:22 - 75395 of 81564

'ERE I resemble that remark! lol

ExecLine - 10 Dec 2016 11:06 - 75396 of 81564

I'm just looking at my post 75393 which has lost all of its HTML controls and so just looks like 'a piece of alphabet spaghetti with added grammaticals'.

It's Saturday morning. The time is about 11am. So not a word of comment to its users about these or other problems from ANY MoneyAM staff, who have obviously bu~~ered off and left it for the weekend.

I conclude, that management, and probably staff too, have lost interest in this site, aren't going to invest any money into it or throw much more effort at it and the site is now on its last legs.

Pity really.

Dil - 10 Dec 2016 11:46 - 75397 of 81564

Hays , he said we would sink within days of an out vote not when we left.

Can I recommend olazapine to you RF? You should be right as rain in a short while and those voices will go away. Stay indoors meanwhile.

Not a pretty picture?

grannyboy - 11 Dec 2016 11:51 - 75402 of 81564

Well Haystacks fave tory, Ken(suede shoes)Clarke has stated on the Sunday
Politics that T.Mays career could be short lived, because of a group that Clarke
is involved with has taken umbrage at Mays EU stance..

Maybe haystacks has some inside contacts with information(allegedly)to
furnish us with?.

Fred1new - 11 Dec 2016 12:18 - 75403 of 81564

Suggest you relisten to the interview with Clarke.
