Yeee Ha "…………..sure it it is yep just a dollar thang ……my a**e LOL

The Tories have shot their bolt, had it, totally knackered……. Get the fk over it LOL

The UK basically the only major world economy to effectively sanction itself LOL.

Sterling sank to an all-time low of $1.0350 Monday, as investors got spooked by new UK chief finance minister Kwasi Kwarteng's promises to cut taxes at a time when the UK is battling 9.9% inflation. However, the pound has fallen steadily against the dollar for the past six years, sliding over 23% from $1.44 on the eve of the June 2016 Brexit referendum. It dropped to $1.33 in just two weeks after the vote.

Brexit was fueling the UK currency's longer-term decline long before it plummeted to a record low on Monday, analysts said. It has hit the country's labor market and trade, and has contributed to rising inflation — weighing heavily on the UK's economic health.
"Brexit was always going to be a negative for the economy and the pound in the years immediately after leaving," Oanda market analyst Craig Erlam told Insider.
"It's impossible to quantify the role of Brexit in the pound's devaluation over the last six years. But it's clear that until now, it's done the UK economy no favors," he added.

"Carnival is a great company.".......................................... Really? LOL

Saturday Telegraph "This episode has been a lesson in hubris, but Truss's good mission must not die" The Gammon's are reet panicked Captain Mainwaring. They don't like it up em! LOL

Carnival (CCL) missed EPS and EBITDA estimates with its report and the update on advance bookings for Q4 fell below the historical normal range, which was unexpected just a few weeks ago. The cumulative advance bookings for the quarter were also noted to be at lower prices.

It’s $30B LTD not $3B!

I see that the Tories have sc****d their own biggest supporters! “ £1bn Serco pension scheme seeks loan from outsourcer amid markets turmoil” LOL

EC Told you the debt would sc**w CCL. Still ramping are we? LOL

"Not sure why the Tories would reverse the mini-budget. There is nothing wrong with it." There there, never mind. Nursey will be a along in a minute with your medicine LOL

You can rant on all you like about mass hysteria , the biased left-wing media (that's a joke) and the dastardly markets. Truth is the Tories have shot themselves well and truly in the foot and at least for the duration they are scuppered. I would keep quiet if I were Starmer, just let them self-destruct. Let's see how Daggers goes down at the Tory Party conference, if anyone bothers to turn up that is. LOL

Now down 1.3% and your point is?

Never in the field of macroeconomics have so many been so comprehensively scr****d over by so few LOL.

Jeezus talk about comparing apples and oranges! USA is worlds No 1 economy and we are.....6th! UK has a budget deficit of -8.2% of GDP (21% more than the USA) and government debt as a share of GDP for the UK is some 24% higher than the USA. Go figure. LOL

My god the Tories must be really rattled! They have started to criticise SKY NEWS, the Dirty Diggers Tory propaganda machine. Things must be getting desperate LOL.

Rishi Sunak will not attend the Conservative party conference this year. Apparently he wants to give Liz Truss as much space as possible in order for her to "own the moment" LOL!

Apparently city traders have a new nickname for Liz Truss. She is "Daggers" as it is two stops up from Barking! LOL
