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.

Utilities Giving Away Power as Wind, Sun Flood Grid
The 15 mile-per-hour winds that buffeted northern Germany on July 24 caused the nations 21,600 windmills to generate so much power that utilities such as EON AG and RWE AG (RWE) had to pay consumers to take it off the grid.
Rather than an anomaly, the event marked the 31st hour this year when power companies lost money on their electricity in the intraday market because of a torrent of supply from wind and solar parks. The phenomenon was unheard of five years ago.

It is marvellous to see Eric the Bin Man on telly again.
At first, I thought it was Benny Hill and the Fastest Milkman in the West.
Sounds like him.
But he certainly has lost his speed.
Mind he as a pickle he fits nicely on two seats in the cabinet.
Perhaps, he could collect the rubbish.

Greek cabinet approves budget cuts - Package includes dismissing thousands of public sector workers
That won't help much , thousands of public sector worker's getting early retirement and others living off genius state benefit's. That's one of the reasons why they got into the mess in the first place, that and fiddling the book's to get handout's from the EU.

The fiddlings seem similar to those of MPs in the UK government.
Some of whom put down their bows and are now in the cabinet.
==================
Fascinating, to see the rabbits that Osborne and Cameron are pulling out of the bag.
The party of con fidence tricksters.

Once again, I see the market is reassured by this Osborne and Cameron's policies and the UK being outsiders of the EU.
I thought UK's economic problems were due to government mismanagement and nothing to so the Worlds economy.
This government has been in power approximately 18mths and its economy has been nosediving.
Notice that for 6 months Dave and Porky were blaming GB for incompetence, but now is blaming EU, America and the rest of the world.
Its not me Mummy its everybody else's fault.

What a ???????

Well done Georgie boy.
The market rose on his his latest policies.
Of course the details haven't be worked out yet.
Perhaps they were written the appropriate place on the appropriate paper.
Would suggest he goes back to California for another holiday or to the EU with his bright ideas or cap in hand.
Perhaps, he could ask his PR friend for help!

Nice policies.
If we want to discuss political parties that have policies that aren't worked out then we need look no further than the Trade Union Party (Iforget what is its other name).

Hays,
I think it usual for a party to represent the group which was responsible for its birth.
But the cons from look more and more like the mouthpieces of the city gathering together iin a speak easy.
Mind the city is financing the party and hope for pay backs for personal export.
===========
What I think is incredible for the con party of europhobes, led by a Schizophrenic leadership. who wish to exit from their Euro commitments as soon as possible, think that a toy boy can have any weight in the economic decisions made in the EU.
Also, the phobes don't realise that the 40-50% of UK trade is with Europe which is less of importance to the EU as it is to the UK.
I hope that Georgie boy doesn't have to ask for a bailout in the near future.
Mind with the rate of GDP growth which the UK is sustaining at the moment, that could be at the end of November.

The UK is doing pretty well. Wthout all the cuts we would be another Greece, spain, Portugal, Italy or Ireland. Our credit rating would plummet and we would be paying higher interest on our debts. It is a shame you don't like the present government, but you are stuck with it. By the next election the economy will be better and Labour will get nowhere.
