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.

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

Westminster voting intention:
CON: 42% (+3)
LAB: 25% (-2)
UKIP: 12% (-2)
LDEM: 11% (+2)
GRN: 4% (-)
(via YouGov / 04 - 05 Dec)

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)

Dances and songs for this Saturday's 'Strictly' Semi-Final are revealed

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 .

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

We may sink yet. We haven't left.

Either way George is a snivelling little prat .

'ERE I resemble that remark! lol

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.

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

Not a pretty picture?

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?.

Suggest you relisten to the interview with Clarke.

BURP!!!...Repeat....
